Question
Chapter 15, Problem 41P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Four constitutional isomers of C5H10O should be drawn and the chiral centers of the isomers (if there are any) should be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Constitutional isomers have the same molecular formula but different structural connectivity among the atoms.
A tetrahedral carbon atom bonded to four different groups is called a chiral center.
