Answer:
a. 5
b. 4
c. 3
d. 2
Explanation:
How many constitutionally isomeric monochlorination products are possible from the following?
a. 2-Methylpentane
In 2-methylpentane, there are five possible monochlorinated substitutional products in the reaction of chlorination of 2-methylpentane in the presence of sunlight.
b. In 3-methylpentane there are four possible monochlorinated substitutional products in the reaction of chlorination of 3-methylpentane in the presence of sunlight.
c. In 2,2-Dimethylbutane there are three possible monochlorinated substitutional products in the reaction of chlorination of 2,2-Dimethylbutane in the presence of sunlight.
d. In 2,3-Dimethylbutane there are two possible monochlorinated substitutional products in the reaction of chlorination of 2,3-Dimethylbutane in the presence of sunlight.
