The correct sequence involves first introducing a tert-butyl group via Friedel-Crafts alkylation, followed by nitration to introduce a nitro group, and finally, an ethoxy group through a nucleophilic substitution. The goal is to determine the optimal pathway that leads to the desired compound efficiently."}
