How many monochlorination products can be formed (constitutional isomers only) from the reaction of (CH3)2CHCH2CH3 with Cl2 and
1 answer:
Answer:
4 monochlorination products can be formed.
Explanation:
Constitutional isomers : These are those compounds with same molecular formula but different atomic arrangement.For example: butane and 2-methly-propane.
On monochlorination of 2 methyl-butane we will have four possibilities of product which will be constitutional isomers of each other:
- 1-chloro-3-methyl butane :
- 2-chloro-3-methyl butane :
- 2-chloro-2-methyl butane
