MCQ
Which one of the following shows optical activity
  • A
    $HO - \mathop {\mathop {\mathop {\mathop C\limits^| }\limits^H }\limits_| }\limits_H  - COOH$
  • $C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop {\mathop {\mathop C\limits^| }\limits^H }\limits_| }\limits_{Cl}  - COOH$
  • C
    $C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop {\mathop {\mathop {C - \,}\limits^{|\,\,\,\,\,} }\limits^{C{H_3}} }\limits_{|\,\,\,\,\,\,} }\limits_{OH\,\,} COOH$
  • D
    $C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop {\mathop {\mathop {C - \,}\limits^{|\,\,\,\,\,\,} }\limits^{C{H_3}} }\limits_{|\,\,\,\,\,\,} }\limits_{Cl\,\,\,} COOH$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop {\mathop {\mathop C\limits^| }\limits^H }\limits_| }\limits_{Cl}  - COOH$
b
(b) $C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop {\mathop {\mathop C\limits_| }\limits_{Cl} \,}\limits^{|*} }\limits^H - COOH$
