From this aircraft book, It's strange you ask us to post this
 
In this case, no proton has been transferred, so this is not a Bronsted-Lowry acid-base reaction. Instead, a bond has formed between the C=O carbon atom and the oxygen of the CH3-O^- group.
 
Jusik's thin pale face with its straggly blond beard was the picture of horrified embarrassment. Ordo thought all Jedi could sense him coming, but that never seemed to buffer their surprise when he arrived on urgent business.

"Proceeding as for the Wyndor Glass Co. problem, we can now formulate the mathematical model for this general problem of allocating resources to activities. In particular, this model is to select the values for x1, x2, ... , xn so as to

Maximize Z = c1x1 + c2x2 + ... + cnxn,

subject to the restrictions

a11x1 + a12x2 + ... + a1nxn <= b1
a21x1 + a22x2 + ... + a2nxn <= b2
...
am1x1 + am2x2 + ... + amnxn <= bm,

and

x1>=0, x2>=0, ..., xn>=0.

Razen tega ga je sveti mo&#382; vpra&#353;al &#353;e mnogo drugih stvari, a na vse mu je odgovarjal v tem smislu. Redovnik mu je &#382;e hotel dati obvezo, tedaj pa je rekel gospod Ciappelletto:

Mr Segundus ate his bread (which was just as good as the late Mrs Pleasance and his friends had said it was) and his herrings and drank some tea. Their power to soothe a troubled heart must have been greater than he had supposed for he found that he felt a little better and, fortified in this manner, he put on his greatcoat and his hat and his muffler and his gloves and stamped off through the snowy streets to the place that Mr Norrell had appointed for this day's wonders &#8211; the Cathedral of York.

From "The Man in the White Suit" - Ben Collins' autobiography.
I would definitely recommend the book by the way 👍
