Which of the following describes the relative nucleophilicities of methoxide and tert-butoxide?
◦ tert-Butoxide is more nucleophilic because it contains three methyl groups which increase the charge on its oxygen by donating electron density.
◦ Methoxide is more nucleophilic because the nucleophilicity of tert-butoxide is decreased by steric effects.
◦ tert-Butoxide is more nucleophilic because it is more basic.
◦ These alkoxides have the same nucleophilicity because the negative charge in both is on an oxygen atom.
◦ none of the above
