X on polymerisation gives neoprene. Identify X.(a) 1-Chloro-1,3-butadiene(b) 2-Chloro-1,3-butadiene(c) 1-Methyl-1,3-butadiene(d) 2-Methyl-1,3-butadieneI got this question in an interview for job.My enquiry is from Types of Polymerisation Reactions in portion Polymers of Chemistry – Class 12

Answer»

Right choice is (b) 2-Chloro-1,3-butadiene

To explain: Neoprene or polyisoprene is a synthetic rubber OBTAINED from the addition polymerisation of chloroprene (2-chloro-1,3-butadiene) through free RADICAL MECHANISM. It has a BETTER stability towards OXIDATION than natural rubber.
