A hydrocarbon with molecular formula C_5H_12on mono chlorination in presence of light gives four compounds A,B,C,D. A is optically inactive and dehydrohalgenation gives E( major) which on ozonolysis gives acetone and acetaldehyde. B is optically active gives on dehydrohalogenation E also gives E as the major product. Further C is optically active while D is optically inactive. Allcompounds A,B,C,D on reduction give 2-methyl butane.Which of the following is likely structure of C
