As in Chads videos, the free radical halogenation with Cl2/hv and 2-methyl butane proposes 5 mono chloronated because of the stereoisomer on the 2-chloro-4-methylbutane.
However, shouldn't there be one more stereoisomer for the 1-chloro-2-methylbutane? The second carbon is a chiral carbon, so why doesn't this structure factor into this and propose a 6th mono chloronated structure?
