Question

The given pair are :

and

• A. enantiomers
• B. diastereomers
• C. homomers
• D. constitutional isomer

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

constitutional isomer

Answer 2

Explanation:

• In the first molecule, the central carbon is bonded to Br, H, C₂H₅, and CH₂Cl.
• In the second molecule, the central carbon is bonded to Br, H, CH₃, and CH₂CH₂Cl.
• Although both molecules have a chiral center, the connectivity of the substituents differs (chlorine is attached to different carbon chains in each case).
• This difference in connectivity classifies the pair as constitutional isomers.

Answer:
Option (4) constitutional isomers
