Draw structures from the following names, and determine which compounds are optically active:(c) 1,2-dibromo-2-methylbutane
dolphi86 [110]

The given compound 1,2-dibromo-2-methylbutane is an optically active compound .

Because this compound does not have plane of symmetry (POS) and center  of symmetry (COS) i.e. does not have di-symmetry . And also forms non superimposable mirror image . the compound is optically active .

It has  chiral center.

Here , the chiral carbon is attached to the 4 distinct groups such as :  methyl , ethyl , bromine , bromomethane .

<h3>What is di-symmetry?</h3>

Di-symmetry is that which have no center of symmetry and plane of symmetry and alternate axis of symmetry .

<h3>Chiral center :</h3>

Have Sp3 hybridized center (4sigma bond ) .

4 distinct group  is attached to the chiral atom. form non -superimposable mirror image .

<h3>What is optical isomerism ?</h3>

Same molecular formula and same structural formula . also have same physical and chemical properties .

They differ in their behavior towards plane polarized light (ppl) .
