- B 1,3-Dimethylpentan-2-ol
- C 2,5-Dimethylcyclopentanol
- D 1,3-Dimethylcyclopentan-2-ol
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 2,5-Dimethylcyclopentanol
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The parent chain is cyclopentanol, with the hydroxyl group defining C1. Numbering the ring to give the lowest locants to the methyl groups, the methyl groups are at positions 2 and 5.
