An isomer of `C_(5)H_(12)` gives total six isomeric products on monochlorination. Calculate the percentage yield of the primary monochloride which is chiral. Consider the following relative reactivity of `C-H` bonds for chlorination.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the isomer of C5H12 We are given that the compound is an isomer of C5H12. The possible isomers include: 1. Pentane 2. 2-Methylbutane 3. 3-Methylbutane 4. 2,2-Dimethylpropane 5. 2,3-Dimethylbutane For this problem, we will consider 2-Methylbutane as the isomer since it has a primary carbon that can yield a chiral monochloride. ### Step 2: Determine the number of isomeric products from monochlorination When monochlorination occurs, we need to consider the relative reactivity of the C-H bonds: - Primary C-H: 1 - Secondary C-H: 3 - Tertiary C-H: 5 In 2-Methylbutane, the chlorination can occur at: - 1° (primary) C-H: 6 hydrogens (C1 and C5) - 2° (secondary) C-H: 2 hydrogens (C2) - 3° (tertiary) C-H: 1 hydrogen (C3) ### Step 3: Calculate the total reactivity Using the relative reactivity values: - For primary C-H: 6 (hydrogens) × 1 (reactivity) = 6 - For secondary C-H: 2 (hydrogens) × 3 (reactivity) = 6 - For tertiary C-H: 1 (hydrogen) × 5 (reactivity) = 5 Total reactivity = 6 (primary) + 6 (secondary) + 5 (tertiary) = 17 ### Step 4: Calculate the percentage yield of the primary monochloride which is chiral The primary monochloride that is chiral comes from the chlorination of the primary C-H bonds. The yield can be calculated as follows: \[ \text{Percentage yield of primary monochloride} = \left( \frac{\text{Yield from primary C-H}}{\text{Total reactivity}} \right) \times 100 \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Percentage yield} = \left( \frac{6}{17} \right) \times 100 \approx 35.29\% \] ### Step 5: Final answer The percentage yield of the primary monochloride which is chiral is approximately **35.29%**. ---
