Which among the following is NOT Alliylic halide?
Options
- ACH ₂= CH - CH ₂- X
- BCH ₃- CH = CH - CH ₂- X
- CCH ₃- CH ₂- CH = CH - CH ₂- X
- DCH ₃- CH = CH - CH ₂- CH ₂- X
Correct answer
D. CH ₃- CH = CH - CH ₂- CH ₂- X
Step-by-step solution
An allylic halide requires the halogen to attach to an sp ^3 carbon directly adjacent to a carbon-carbon double bond. In compound A, CH ₂= CH - CH ₂- X , the halogen is bonded to a carbon that is sp ^3 and adjacent to the double bond, so it is allylic. In compound B, CH ₃- CH = CH - CH ₂- X , the halogen is attached to an sp ^3 carbon adjacent to the double bond, so it is allylic. In compound C, CH ₃- CH ₂- CH = CH - CH ₂- X , the halogen is connected to an sp ^3 carbon directly adjacent to the double bond, so it i
