structure

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Ans. (D) 3.

Sol. The imine carbon of C=N bears H and CH3 and the imine nitrogen is attached to two different groups (CH3 and the chiral carbon), so both sp2 centres of C=N are stereogenic; in addition the carbon bearing CH3 and CH2Cl is a stereocentre. Total = 3.
