Give the structure of an optically active hydrocarbon (C_(6)H_(12)) which on catalytic hydrogenation gives an optically inactive compound (C_(6)H_(14)).

Answer»

Solution :`UNDERSET("3Methylpent-1-ene (Opticall ACTIVE)")(CH_(2)=CH-OVERSET(CH_(3))overset(|)(.^(**)C)H-CH_(2)CH_(3)) overset(H_(2)//NI)to underset("3-Methylpentane (Optically INACTIVE)")(CH_(3)CH_(2)-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(C)H-CH_(2)CH_(3))`
