Solution

The correct option is D CH3CH2CH2CH3
CH3CH2CH2CH3 (nbutane) has the lowest boiling point as it has lowest molecular weight and is non polar. It has weakest intramolecular forces of attraction.
All others are polar comp[ounds and so has dipole-dipole inbteraction.

Hence, the correct option is C
