MCQ
Molecules whose mirror image is non superimposable over them are known as chiral. Which of the following molecules is chiral in nature?
- A2-Bromobutane
- B1-Bromobutane
- C2-Bromopropane
- D2-Bromopropan-2-ol
✓
Answer
- 2-Bromobutane
Explanation:
The objects which are nonsuperimposable on their mirror images are called enantiomers. It occurs on that molecule which contains asymmetric carbon or chiral (i.e., a carbon atom attached with four different groups.) in the present case a molecule of 2- Bromobutane [CH3 CH2 C*H (Br) CH3] is a chiral molecule because,
- It contains a chiral carbon atom marked as (C*).
- Its mirror image is non-superimposable over them.
