An optically active alkyl chloride having molecular formula 'A' `(C_6H_13Cl)` on dehydrohalogenation gave two isomeric alkenes B & C `(C_6H_12)` . Ozonolysis of B gave formaldehyde and D `(C_5H_10O)` , while ozonolysis of C gave acetone. Reduction A gave 2,2-dimethyl butane.
The structure of 'D' is

A

`CH_3 - undersetoverset(|)(CH_3)(C )H - CH_2CHO`

B

C

`CH_3 - undersetoverset(|)(CH_3)(C )H_2CH - CHO`

D

`CH_3 - oversetunderset(|)(CH_3)(C )H - COCH_3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D


B & C doesn.t exhibits geometrical isomerism as has `a_2C = Cbd` type and c is `a_2C = Ca_2` type
