Is
( A ) 40%
( B ) 60%
Test Paper Solution

How many of the following are optically active?
Solution:
A,B are alkyli dines and C is spiran. These are optically active as each of the terminal
carbons in the ring is connected to two different atoms or groups. Biphenyl is optically
active as the two rings are perpendicular to one another and bulky substituents are
present in ortho positions. In all cases a molecule and its mirror image do not super
impose. So they are optically active.
