Among the isomers of pentane (C 5 H 12 ), write the one which on photochemical chlorination yields a single monochloride.

Question

Philoid · Accepted Answer

Among the isomer of pentane that will yield single monochloride on photochemical chlorination will be the one that only have one type of H- atom in the isomer of pentane. So, that type of pentane isomer is neopentane because in this, replacement of any ‘H’ leads to the formation of same product.

Among the isomers of pentane (C5H12), write the one which on photochemical chlorination yields a single monochloride.

Among the isomers of pentane (C₅H₁₂), write the one which on photochemical chlorination yields a single monochloride.
