Help with Organic Chemistry?
I need assistance with organic chemistry! I am tasked with constructing a three-step synthesis of 3-bromo-3-methyl-2-butanol starting from 2-methyl-2-butene. Please drag the appropriate chemical formulas into the designated bins. Be aware that each bin can hold only one item, and not all provided reagents or structures will be needed for this synthesis.

The reagents for steps 1 and 2 are correct, but the products are (1) the bromohydrin and (2) the epoxide. The reagent for step 3 is HBr / NaBr and gives the correct product via acid catalyzed ring opening.
