Oh, shitt Forgot about this Right.. So, I asked my teacher about this and she said this happens rarely but it is known as halide exchange reaction The C(CH3)3- ion will attack on Br, and as we know Br is a good leaving group, so it goes with C(CH3)3- to form C(CH3)3Br leaving a negative charge on the benzene ring with reacts with Li+ ion So, what I did above with Br is wrong, but with OH it's correct
