Interpretation: For the solution of acetylacetone in several solvents, the observed variation in enol content is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

In polar solvents, the lone pair involved in hydrogen bonding with solvent, so not or less available to hydrogen bond.

Solvents affects the relative stability of enol form.

Enol form gets stabilized by internal hydrogen bonding.
