MCQ
Which of the following compounds which is an optically active compound
- A$1-$butanol
- ✓$2-$butanol
- C$3-$butanol
- D$4-$heptanol
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
$2-$butanol
b
(b) $2-$butanol $(C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop {CH}\limits_{|\,\,\,\,\,\,} }\limits_{OH} - C{H_2} - C{H_3})$ is optically active because it has asymmetric carbon atom.
(b) $2-$butanol $(C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop {CH}\limits_{|\,\,\,\,\,\,} }\limits_{OH} - C{H_2} - C{H_3})$ is optically active because it has asymmetric carbon atom.
