Asked by dineshchem108 | 20 May, 2019, 11:46: PM
Explanation:
Options C and D:
There are two and three -CH3 groups are attached respectively will exert +I effect.
As due to +I effect of the -CH3 groups, (CH3)2CHO– and (CH3)3CO– are stronger bases.
But due to the steric hindrance both are weaker nucleophiles
Options A and B:
C6H5O– is a weaker nucleophile due to resonance.
CH3O– is small in size hence stronger nucleophile than rest of others.
CH3O– is small in size hence stronger nucleophile than rest of others.
