Of the five isomeric hexanes, the isomer which can give only two monochlorinated compounds is:
- An-hexane
- B-dimethylbutane
- C-dimethylbutane
- D-methylpentane
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
We look for the isomer with only two types of non-equivalent hydrogen atoms.In -dimethylbutane:All six methyl hydrogens are equivalent.The two tertiary hydrogens are equivalent.Chlorination at either of these two positions leads to only two possible products.
