Answer:
2,2-Dimethyloxirane dissolved in excess methanol and treated with a little acid yields the product 2-methoxy-2-methyl-1-propanol (and no 1-methoxy-2-methyl-2-propanol). ... During acid catalyzed reaction of 2,2-dimethyloxirane with methanol, the first step is reversible protonation of the epoxide oxygen.
