How many fractions will be obtained on fractional distillation of all monochloro derivatives obtained by isooctane?

Answer:
4.00
Solution:

Isooctane is 2,2,4-trimethylpentane. It has four chemically inequivalent H-bearing carbon environments: the three methyl groups at C2, C3 methylene, C4 methine, and the two methyl groups at C4. Four constitutional monochloro products give four fractions; an enantiomeric pair has identical boiling points and is not separated by ordinary fractional distillation.
