MCQ
Which one of the following is an optically active compound
- A$n-$ propanol
- ✓$2-$ chlorobutane
- C$n-$ butanol
- D$4-$ hydroxyheptane
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
$2-$ chlorobutane
b
(b) $\mathop {C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop {{C^ * }}\limits_{|\,\,\,\,}^{|\,\,\,} }\limits_{Cl\,\,}^{H\,\,} - C{H_2} - C{H_3}}\limits_{{\text{2 - Chlorobutane}}} $
(b) $\mathop {C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop {{C^ * }}\limits_{|\,\,\,\,}^{|\,\,\,} }\limits_{Cl\,\,}^{H\,\,} - C{H_2} - C{H_3}}\limits_{{\text{2 - Chlorobutane}}} $
because they contain chiral carbon atom.
