- A 2 - Chloropropane
- B 2 - Chloro - 2 - methylbutane
- C 3 - Chloro - 3 - methylbutane
- D 2 - Chloropentane
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 2 - Chloropentane
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Options:
1. 2-Chloropropane (Not chiral, lacks a chiral center).
2. 2-Chloro-2-methylbutane (Not chiral, no four different groups on carbon).
3. 3-Chloro-3-methylbutane (Not chiral, symmetry exists).
4. 2-Chloropentane (Chiral, contains a chiral center at C-2).
Answer: Option 4: 2-Chloropentane.
