C5H10 does not show geometrical isomerism. Reaction of C5H10 with NBS in presence of sunlight gives two monosubstituted products. One of the products show geometrical isomerism. If the free radical intermediate undergoes rearrangement, then a tertiary and two secondary (optical isomers) monobromo products are formed.
