An alkane with a molecular formula C_(6)H_(14) reacts with chlorine in the presence of light and heat to give two constitutionally isomeric monochlorides of molecular formula C_(6)H_(13)Cl. What is the most reasonable starting alkane ?

Answer»

n-Hexane
2, 2-Dimethylbutane
2, 3-Dimethylbutane
3-Methylpentane

SOLUTION :`CH_(3) - underset(CH_(3))underset(|)(CH) - underset(CH_(3))underset(|)(CH) - CH_(3) OVERSET(Cl_(2))RARR CH_(3)underset(CH_(2)Cl)underset(|)(CH) - overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(CH) - CH_(3) + CH_(3) = underset(CH_(3))underset(|)(CH) - underset(CH_(3))underset(|)(CH) - CH_(2)Cl`
