Question

Is 2,5-dibromohexane chiral? If chiral, give the atom number(s) of the chirality center(s) (increasing numberical order, separated by a comma, no space). Write 'none' if there are no chirality centers. . Is 1-bromo-3-chloro-2-methylpropane chiral? If chiral, give the atom number(s) of the chirality center(s) (increasing numberical order, separated by a comma, no space). Write 'none' if there are no chirality centers.

Answer 1

2,5-dibromohexane have 2 chirality centers.

1-bromo-3-chloro-2-methylpropane have 1 chirality center.

Explanation:

For organic compounds a chirality center is represented by a asymmetric carbon which have four different type of substituents.

2,5-dibromohexane have 2 chirality centers represented by the two  asymmetric carbons.

1-bromo-3-chloro-2-methylpropane have 1 chirality center represented by one asymmetric carbon.

You may find the chemical diagrams of both compound in the attached picture. Asymmetric carbon are colored in blue.
