Ques. 1JEE Main 2024, 8 April (Evening Shift)

The number of optically active compounds from the following is . [figure] CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-OH, CH3-CH2- Cl |CH-CH3, CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-Cl, (CH3)2CH-CH2-CH2-Cl

Answer

1

Solution

[figure]

(i): two identical chiral C with a plane of symmetry (dashed), so it is meso and optically inactive.

(ii): heptane-3,4,5-triol drawn symmetrical about C-4 (plane through C-4), so it is optically inactive.

CH3CH2CH2CH2OH and CH3CH2CH2CH2Cl have no chiral C, so they are inactive.

(CH3)2CH-CH2-CH2-Cl: C-3 carries two CH3 groups, so there is no chiral C; inactive.

CH3-CH2- CHCl-CH3: C-2 has four different groups (H, Cl, CH3, C2H5), so it is optically active.

Hence only 1 compound is optically active.
