The correct option is
A As
N is involved in conjugation with the benzene ring, its hybridisation changes from
sp3 to
sp2 and in this way, it becomes planar. Hence, its chirality is lost once it becomes a planar structure.
Compound (c) is a even cumulene.
In even cumulenes, two mutually perpendicular π bonds are formed. Hence, the terminal atoms/groups attached to the terminal
sp2 carbons are in different planes. These terminals represent arrangement like
sp3 hybridised chiral centre. Since, the terminals are of different atoms it does not possess any plane or centre of symmetry. Hence, the molecule is optically active.
Compound (b) and (d) has a chiral centre so they are optically active.
Hence, (a) is correct.
