Some Basic Principles Of Organic Chemistry Question 276
Question: Which of the following may exist in enantiomorphs [CBSE PMT 1988]
Options:
A) $ CH_3-\overset{CH_3}{\mathop{\overset{|,}{\mathop{CH-COOH,}},}}, $
B) $ CH_2=CHCH_2CH_2CH_3 $
C) $ CH_3-\overset{NH_2}{\mathop{\overset{|,}{\mathop{CH-CH_3,}},}}, $
D) $ CH_3-CH_2-\overset{NH_2}{\mathop{\overset{|,}{\mathop{CH-CH_3}},}}, $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
$ CH_3-CH_2-\underset{H,}{\overset{NH_2}{\mathop{\underset{|,}{\overset{|}{\mathop{{C^{*}},-,}}},}}},CH_3 $ Chiral centre is present.
Hence, it exists as optical isomers or enantiomorphs.
