Hi all!

Referring to Question #35 in 2012 destroyer: Can someone pls explain how the 1st chlorination in the solutions manual is chiral? The carbon with the chlorine has two H's. I am confused.
 
The second C is chiral , not the first C with chlorine. This is the way I understand.
 
Look at the second Carbon from the left, It's chiral when chlorine lends on first position.
Very tricky problem
