Protonation followed by Nucleophilic addition is the process.
Explanation:
- The reactant is tertiary butyl methyl ether.
- The reagent is hydrogen bromide.
- The hydrogen bromide undergoes heterolytic fission.
- It produces bromide and a Proton.
- This Proton attacks the oxygen of ether to produce a hydronium intermediate.
- This intermediate then undergoes heterolytic cleavage to produce methanol and tertiary butyl cation.
- This tertiary butyl cation is then attacked by bromide ion to produce the tertiary butyl bromide.
