Which of the following acids does not exhibit optical isomerism?
Maleic acid
α-amino acids
Lactic acid
Lactic acid
A.
Maleic acid
Only those compounds exhibit optical isomerism, which has chiral centre and / Or absence of symmetry elements. (chiral carbon is the four valencies of which are satisfied by four different groups.)
Thus, maleic acid does not exhibit optical isomerism.
