Question

Which of the following will give enantiomeric pair on reaction with water due to presence of asymmetric carbon atom?

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Answer 2

It has asymmetric carbon atom which is joined to four different groups hence it will give optically active products or a pair of enantiomers.

$C_{2}H_{5} - \overset{\underset{\overset{H}{|}}{\underset{CH_{3}}{|}}}{*C} - I$
