Question:

Following is a series of acid–base reactions that represent the individual steps in a known organic transformation, the replacement of —Br by —OH at a carbon bearing three alkyl groups. Considering only the forward direction, classify each reaction as a Brønsted acid–base reaction or a Lewis acid–base association/dissociation. Classify each labeled species (or a group within each species) with one of the following terms: Brønsted base, Brønsted acid, nucleophile, nucleophilic center, electrophile, electrophilic center, and/or leaving group. For Brønsted acid–base reactions, show the conjugate acid–base pairs.CH3 16 HC-C-Br: 7 T CH3 A CH3 HC-C+* I CH3 B CH, H T  HC-C-0-  CH3 E H T :O-H D :OH F CH3 HC-C+ T CH 3 C B
