Consider the following two methods:
$Method 1 : ({CH}_{3})_{3} C B r + N a O M e \to$
$Method 2 : {CH}_{3} Br + t-BuONa \to$
which of the following is correct for the formation of ether

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

In method 1, E2 reaction will takes place and alkene will be formed. While in method 2, substitution ${(S}_{N} 1)$ will takes place and ether will be formed.
${CH}_{3} Br + t-BuONa \overset{S_{N} 1}{\to} {t-BuOCH}_{3}$
