B
1, 3 - dichloro - 2 - pentene
C
1, 1 - dichloro - 1 - pentene
D
1, 4 - dichloro - 2 - pentene
Answer :
1, 1 - dichloro - 1 - pentene

does not show
geometrical isomerism due to presence of two similar $$Cl$$ atoms on the same $$C-$$ atom. Geometrical isomerism is shown by compounds in which the groups/atoms attached to $$C = C$$ are different.

Increasing order of stability among the three main
conformations ( i.e. Eclipse, Anti, Gauche ) of 2 - fluoroethanol
is
A
Eclipse, Anti, Gauche
B
Anti, Gauche, Eclipse
C
Eclipse, Gauche, Anti
D
Gauche, Eclipse, Anti
Answer :
Eclipse, Anti, Gauche
View Solution
Discuss Question
Due to hydrogen bonding between $$H$$ & $$F$$ gauche
conformation is most stable hence the correct order is Eclipse, Anti, Gauche
27.
The correct statement about the compounds $$A, B,$$ and $$C$$
A
$$A$$ and $$B$$ are identical
B
$$A$$ and $$B$$ are diastereomers
C
$$A$$ and $$C$$ are enantiomers
D
$$A$$ and $$B$$ are enantiomers
Answer :
$$A$$ and $$B$$ are enantiomers
View Solution
Discuss Question
Rotation of $$B$$ through $${180^ \circ }$$ within the plane of the paper gives $$D$$ which is an enantiomer of $$A,$$ hence $$A$$ and $$B$$ are enantiomers

An optically active compound $$(A)$$ is treated with $$NaI$$ /acetone $$(B)$$ is obtained
What is true about $$(B)?$$
A
optically active
B
optically inactive and racemic form
C
optically inactive
D
None of these
Answer :
optically inactive and racemic form
View Solution
Discuss Question
The reaction proceeds through planar
leading to racemisation.
