Total number of compounds with Chiral carbon atoms from following is CH 3 - CH 2 - CH NO 2 - COOH CH 3 - CH ( I ) - CH 2 - NO 2 CH 3 - CH 2 - CHBr - CH 2 - CH 3 CH 3 - CH 2 - CH ( OH ) - CH 2 OH

Correct answer

5

Step-by-step solution

The chiral carbon atoms are carbon atoms that are attached to four different atoms or groups of atoms losses all symmetry, that are placed at the corners of a tetrahedron. The configuration of such a tetrahedral unit is chiral. The structure may exist in either a right-handed configuration or a left-handed configuration. This type of configurational stereoisomers is termed enantiomorphism. Amongst the given compounds, these compounds have chiral carbon in it.
