Answer #1

Step 1

To find the chiral centers, look out for the centers connected to 4 different substituents.

Therefore, the carbon atoms 1 and 3, connected to four different groups are chiral

so there are two chiral centers in this molecule and it is CHIRAL.

The correct option is: (f).

Kindly upvote please,

Thank you.
