One hydrogen of each of the following hydrocarbons is replaced by a deuterium atom. The number of structural isomers (including the deuterated compound) obtained from propene and from cyclopropane respectively are

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

In propene, , D can replace H at three structurally distinct positions : C-1 (terminal ), C-2 (the central CH) and C-3 (the allylic ) 3 isomers. In cyclopropane all carbons and hydrogens are equivalent, so only 1 deuterated product. Hence 3 and 1.
