Which amongst the following molecules on polymerization produces neoprene?Which amongst the following molecules on polymerization produces neoprene?

Options

  1. ACH2=C(CH3)−CH=CH2{CH}_{2} = C\left({CH}_{3}\right) - CH = {CH}_{2}
  2. BCH2=CH−CH=CH2{CH}_{2} = CH - CH = {CH}_{2}
  3. CCH2=C(Cl)−CH=CH2{CH}_{2} = C\left(Cl\right) - CH = {CH}_{2}
  4. DCH2=CH−C≡CH{CH}_{2} = CH - C ≡ CH

Correct answer

C. CH2=C(Cl)−CH=CH2{CH}_{2} = C\left(Cl\right) - CH = {CH}_{2}

Step-by-step solution

Neoprene (also polychloroprene) is a family of synthetic rubbers that are produced by polymerization of chloroprene. Neoprene exhibits good chemical stability and maintains flexibility over a wide temperature range.

The structure of the chloroprene is CH2=C(Cl)−CH=CH2{CH}_{2} = C\left(Cl\right) - CH = {CH}_{2}

The formation of neoprene is as follows,
