There are five structural isomers of C3H5Cl3:

1,1,1- Trichloropropane:

  • All three chlorine atoms are bonded to the first carbon atom in the chain.
  • Cl-CH2-CH2-CH2-Cl (structural formula)

1,1,2- Trichloropropane:

  • Two chlorine atoms are bonded to the first carbon, and one chlorine atom is bonded to the second carbon.
  • Cl-CH2-CH(Cl)-CH2-Cl (structural formula)

1,2,2- Trichloropropane:

  • One chlorine atom is bonded to the first carbon, and two chlorine atoms are bonded to the second carbon.
  • Cl-CH2-CH(Cl)-CH(Cl)-Cl (structural formula)

1,1,3- Trichloropropane:

  • Two chlorine atoms are bonded to the first carbon, and one chlorine atom is bonded to the third carbon.
  • Cl-CH2-CH2-CH(Cl)-Cl (structural formula)

1,2,3- Trichloropropane:

  • One chlorine atom is bonded to each of the first three carbon atoms in the chain.

  • Cl-CH2-CH(Cl)-CH2-Cl (structural formula)

    Note: This isomer has a chiral center at the second carbon atom, meaning it can exist as a pair of enantiomers

    I hope it helps!
