Compound (S) that on hydrogenation product (S) optically inactive compound (s) `"is" //"are"`

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, D
Compounds (b) and (d) being enantiomers upon hydrogenationn given the same reduction product (I)

Compound (I) being symmetrical does not contain a chiral carbon and hence is optically inactive. Thus, option (b) and (d) are correct. please find out yourself that options (a) and (c) give optically active products.
