Reactivity of Enols a-Substitution Reactions

Draw structures for the enol tautomers of the following compounds, and identify all acidic hydrogens in each  [Pg.699]

Draw structures for all monoenol forms of the following molecule. Which would you expect to be most stable Explain. [Pg.699]

What kind of chemistry do enols have Because their double bonds are electron-rich, enols behave as nucleophiles and react with electrophiles in much the same way that alkenes do. But because of resonance electron donation of a lone-pair of electrons on the neighboring oxygen, enols are more electron-rich and correspondingly more reactive than alkenes. Notice in the following electrostatic potential map of ethenol (H2C=CHOH) how there is a substantial amount of electron density (yellow/red) on the a carbon. [Pg.699]

CHAPTER 17 CARBONYL ALPHA-SUBSTITUTION AND CONDENSATION REACTIONS [Pg.700]

General mechanism of a carbonyl a-substitution reaction on an enol. The initially formed cation loses H to regenerate a carbonyl compound. [Pg.700]
