Only I iand II are the chiral compounds.
Explanation:
- Chiral carbon is defined as that carbon which
- A. is sp3 hybrid.
- B has four different groups attached with its four valency.
- These chiral carbons are capable of optical isomerism.
- They can turn plane polarised light.
- Here in option I,we can see that the central carbon is having four different groups with its four valency.
- Similarly in option II, we can see four different groups are attached with its four different valency.
- The rest of the compounds are not that.
- So they aren't chiral.
