Which of the following compounds will give racemic mixture of nucleophilic substitution by $$OH^-$$ ion? (i) $$CH_3-{\underset{C_2H_5}{\underset{|}{CH}}}-Br$$ (ii) $$CH_3-{\underset{C_2H_5}{\underset{|}{\overset{Br}{\overset{|}{C}}}}}-CH_3$$ (iii) $$CH_3-{\underset{C_2H_5}{\underset{|}{CH}}}-CH_2Br$$

A(I)
Correct Answer
B(I), (II), (III)
C(II), (III)
D(I), (III)

Solution

To exhibits racemic mixture the compound should contain at least one chiral carbon in the compound.
$$*$$ Chiral carbon is an asymmetric carbon that is attached to four different types of atoms or group of atoms.
$$*$$ But all other compound didn't have at least one chiral.

Option A correct.
