Compound X and Y structures for Q68 - JEE Main 2026 Evening
Structures of compound X and compound Y containing functional groups and chiral centers.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution & Explanation

### Core Logic - Statement I: Compound X contains a carboxylic acid group (which dissolves in textNaHCO_3) and possesses two chiral centers. Thus Statement I is true. - Statement II: Compound Y has specific carbon hybridization states matching sp^3, sp^2, and sp carbons. Thus Statement II is true. ### Step 1: Final Conclusion Both Statement I and Statement II are true, matching option (3). ### Pattern Recognition Sees: identification of chiral centers and carbon hybridization in organic molecules. Trap: Overlooking carboxylic acid solubility requirements in textNaHCO_3. ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques
