Question

Which of the following compounds exhibits, stereoisomerism ?

Options

A.2-methyl butene-1
B.3-methyl butene-1
C.3-methyl butene acid
D.2-methyl butene acid

Solution


                    (A)
(Cab = Ca2 type alkene and no asymmetric centre.)

B(an alkyne with no asymmetric centre)

C (a saturated acid without asymmetric centre)

D(Cab = Cac type alkene and thus will exist in E & Z geometrical isoners, C* (starred carbon) is asymmetric, thus will show optical isomerism, or say it shows stereoisomerism.)
