    Which of the following compound is expected to be optically active?

    A) \[{{(C{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}CHCHO\]

    B) \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}CHO\]

    C) \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CHBrCHO\]

    D)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CB{{r}_{2}}CHO\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] An optically active compound contains a chiral carbon atom. [a] \[\begin{align}   & {{H}_{3}}C-\overset{C{{H}_{3}}}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{\underset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-CHO \\  & (no\,\,chiral\,\,carbon\,\,atom) \\ \end{align}\] [b]  \[\begin{align}   & H-\underset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{\underset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{\underset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,=O \\  & (no\,\,chiral\,\,carbon\,\,atom) \\ \end{align}\] [c] \[\begin{align}   & H-\underset{{}}{\mathop{\underset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{\underset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{\underset{Br}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{^{*}C}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-\underset{\underset{O}{\mathop{\parallel }}\,}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-H \\  & (contains\,\,chiral\,\,carbon\,\,atom) \\ \end{align}\] [d] \[\begin{align}   & H-\underset{{}}{\mathop{\underset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{\underset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-\underset{Br}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{\overset{Br}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-}}\,\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,=O \\  & (no\,\,chiral\,\,carbon\,\,atom) \\ \end{align}\]
