Draw structural formulas for the four aldehydes with the
molecular formula C5H10O. Which of these
aldehydes are chiral?
Correct answer icon
Correct.
Draw the structural formula of the aldehyde with no
branching:
CH3CHO
Draw the structural formula of the aldehyde that has quaternary
carbons:
CH3CH3CH3CHO
Draw the structural formula of the remaining aldehyde:
CH3CH3CHO
Which of these aldehydes is chiral?
Structure 1
Structure 2
Structure 3
Structure 4
