Isopentane can form four structurally isomeric mono bromo derivatives. How many of them are cally active?

Answer»

1<BR>2
3
4

Solution :Mono bromo derivatives of ISO pentane are
1) `CH_(3)-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)CH-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-Br`

`CH_(3)-underset(Br)underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)C-CH_(2)-CH_(3)`

Among (4) isomers TWO are optically active due to the PRESENCE of chiral CENTRE
