### Reaction Steps and Reagents

**Question 15 of 30**

In each reaction box, place the best reagent and conditions from the given list.

#### Diagram Description:
- The diagram shows a chemical reaction sequence aimed at transforming one molecular structure into another.
- The starting molecule on the left is a branched hydrocarbon with two methyl groups and a hydroxyl group, denoted as \( \text{H}_3\text{C}-\text{C(CH}_3\text{)}_2\text{CH}_2\text{OH} \).
- The final product on the right side of the arrow is \( \text{H}_3\text{C}-\text{C(CH}_3\text{)}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2 \text{OH} \).
- There are four reaction boxes (labeled 1 through 4), indicating four steps in the transformation. 

#### Answer Bank:
1. \( \text{TsCl, pyridine} \)
2. \( \text{NaBH}_4 \)
3. \( (\text{CH}_3)_3\text{CO}^- \)
4. \( \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4, \text{conc.} \)
5. \( \text{CH}_3\text{COO}^- \)
6. \( \text{NaOH} \)
7. \( \text{H}_2\text{O}_2, \text{NaOH, H}_2\text{O} \)
8. \( \text{CH}_3\text{O}^- \)
9. \( \text{H}_3\text{O}^+ \)
10. \( \text{BH}_3, \text{THF} \)

Students should select the appropriate reagents and conditions from the given list to effectively convert the starting compound into the final product indicated in the reaction sequence. Each selection should account for the necessary chemical changes in each step.

### Educational Note:
Understanding the sequential reaction steps and choosing the correct reagents is crucial in organic chemistry synthesis. This exercise helps reinforce knowledge of different reagents and their specific roles in functional group transformations and carbon-carbon bond formations.
