cyclopentane

D

both (b) and (c)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`CH_(3)-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(C) - CH_(3) underset(hv)overset(X_(2))(rarr) CH_(3) - underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(C) - CH_(2) - X`
Both compound gives only one monohalogenated product is possible.
