Reason R: A molecule with 2 chiral carbons is always optically active.
Assertion A: Glycine with Cl₂ and red P undergoes Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky reaction, giving α-chloro amino acid which has a chiral carbon. True.
Reason R: A molecule with 2 chiral carbons is always optically active — False (meso compounds have 2 chiral carbons but are optically inactive).
