Identify the chiral molecule among the following.
- A Isopropyl alcohol
- B -Pentanol
- C -Bromo--butene
- D Isobutyl alcohol
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) -Pentanol
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
A carbon which is bonded to four different groups or atoms is called chiral carbon. A chiral molecule or ion exists in two stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other, called enantiomers. CH3-CHOH-CH3. Isopropyl alcohol, achiral CH3-C*HOH-CH2-CH2-CH3:Pentan-2-ol The…
