There are three constitutional isomers with the molecular formula C5H12. When treated with chlorine at 300°C, isomer A gives a mixture of four monochlorination products. Under the same conditions, isomer B gives a mixture of three monochlorination products and isomer C gives only one monochlorination product. From this information, assign structural formulas to isomers A, B, and C.
