Chemistry - STEREO ISOMERISM Question with Solution | TestHub

Explain the question : To find out number of chiral compounds formed on monochlorination of 2-methyl butane.
Concept : This question is based on number of free radical substitution reaction of alkane.

Solution :

Number of monochloro structural isomer is equal to number of chemical different hydrogen atom in a molecule.

Total 4 chiral compounds y = 4

then 25y + 80 

4 × 25 + 80 = 180

Final answer :- 180
