Ethers can be prepared by Williamson synthesis in which an alkyl halide is reacted with sodium alkoxide. Di-tert-butyl ether can’t be prepared by this method. Why?

Options

1. AIn tert-butyl halides, elimination is favored over substitution, so alkene is the only reaction product and et
2. BDi-tert-butyl ether is a highly reactive compound that undergoes side reactions during Williamson synthesis.
3. CDi-tert-butyl ether is a solid compound and does not dissolve in the reaction mixture required for Williamson
4. DDi-tert-butyl ether is a symmetrical ether, and Williamson synthesis is only suitable for the preparation of u
