A compound (A) with molecular formula C(...

A compound `(A)` with molecular formula `C_(5) H_(10)` gives one monochlorination product. Compound `(A)` is:

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`D.U.` in `(A) = ((2n_(C ) + 2) - n_(H))/(2) = (12 - 10)/(2) = 1^(@)`. 1 `D.U`. Suggests that either it is an alkene or a cyclopentane `(C_(5) H_(10))`. Only cyclopentane gives one product on monochlorination.
So the answer is (b).
