Answer:
Strong Bases/Strong Nucleophiles
A good base is usually a good nucleophile. So, strong bases — substances with negatively charged O, N, and C atoms — are strong nucleophiles.
Examples are: RO⁻, OH⁻, RLi, RC≡C:⁻, and NH₂⁻.
Strong Bases/Poor Nucleophiles
Some strong bases are poor nucleophiles because of steric hindrance.
Examples are t-BuO⁻, t-BuLi, and LiN[CH(CH₃)₂]
Weak Bases/Good Nucleophiles
I⁻ is a weak base, but it is a good nucleophile because the large electron cloud is highly polarizable.
