Two isomers and with Molar mass and elemental compositio and gave benzoic acid and bromobenzoic acid, respectively on oxidation with . Isomer is optically active and gives a pale yellow precipitate when warmed with alcoholic . Isomer and are, respectively :
- A

- B

- Correct answerC
and

- D
and
Solution
Based on the percentage composition of the elements given the molecular formula of the compound is

And the degree of unsaturation or double bond equivalent of is 4.
It is mentioned that A is optically active and gives pale yellow precipitate with .
Hence, the structures of A and B can be deduced based on the following reactions.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
