Question
Chapter 13.3, Problem 9P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Reason for why hydrogen attached to carbonyl carbon in acetaldehyde is not exchanged with deuterium in the given reaction has to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Tautomerism is the ability of a molecule to exist in more than one chemical form. Tautomers are formed by the migration of a hydrogen atom, accompanied by the switching of a single and neighboring double bond.
The only difference in keto-enol tautomers are the location of hydrogen and double bond.
