Which isomers of hexane give maximum number of stereoisomers on monochlorination?
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B 2-methylpentane
In x−hexaneH3C1−C2H2−C3H2−CH2−CH2−CH3There are three different carbon thus give three isomers on monochlororination. In 2-methyl pentane:There are five different carbon, thus give 5 stereo-isomers on monochlorination and will give maximum no. of stereo-isomers.
