- 2-Bromobutane
- 1-Bromobutane
- 2-Bromopropane
- 1-Bromopropane

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
A chiral molecule is one that has a carbon atom bonded to four different groups, creating a non-superimposable mirror image (enantiomers). Among the options, 2-Bromobutane is chiral because the central carbon (C2) is bonded to four different groups: a methyl group, a hydrogen atom, a bromine atom, and an ethyl group. The other molecules do not have a chiral center.
