Acid would donate H+, which would attach to OH making OH2+, to form H2O, Oxygen break C-O Bond forming carbocation in option B, then ring expansion

ahh i see i see that makes sense but wont NH also form good leaving groups?? i remeber Hydrocarbons me somehwere to we have studied that NH ka koisa to hroup is a good leaving agen

Since oxygen is more Electronegative it should be a better leaving group

is H2O the BEST leaving group then? that makese sense
SirLancelotDuLac
It is a good one, but not the best. Like -OTs and stuff are the best leaving groups

the stronger the conjugate acid, the better the leaving group iodine is a really good leaving group because HI is strong acid fluorine, not so much because HF aint good acid in the context of acidic reactions i mean

@SirLancelotDuLac verify? or am i getting confused with nucleophilic reactions
SirLancelotDuLac
