Which of the following will give enantiomeric pair on reaction with water due to presence of asymeteric carbon atom?

Options

A. `C_2H_5-underset(C_2H_5)underset(|)overset(C_2H_5)overset(|)C-Br`
B. `C_2H_5-underset(CH_3)underset(|)overset(C_2H_5)overset(|)C-Cl`
C. `C_2H_5-underset(CH_3)underset(|)overset(H)overset(|)C-I`
D. `CH_3-underset(C_2H_5)underset(|)overset(CH_3)overset(|)C-Br`

Answer

C

Explanation

Option (c ) has asymmetric carbon atom which is joined to four different groups hence it will give optically active products or a pair of enantiomers.
