Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

To determine the chirality of the compound, we need to analyze the structure of the compound and the configuration of the stereocenter. So, let's consider the structure of the compound: the compound has a stereocenter, which is a carbon atom that is bonded to four different groups. Notice that the configuration of the stereocenter determines the chirality of the compound. Think of it this way: the chirality of the compound is determined by the configuration of the stereocenter, which can be either R or S. In other words, the compound can be either R or S, depending on the configuration of the stereocenter. Therefore, the correct answer is the option that involves the correct configuration of the stereocenter, which is option 1.
