Examples of enol

enol
In the scheme shown, the enol or enolate of a methyl ketone reacts with an aldehyde.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The keto form is preferred in solid phase and the enol form in solution.
From the en.wikipedia.org
This keto-enol crosslink hypothesis was not developed much further.
From the en.wikipedia.org
It can exist at least in two tautomeric forms, keto and enol.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Phenol therefore exists entirely in the enol form.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The enol or enolate is itself generated from a carbonyl compound, often an aldehyde or ketone, using acid or base.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Phenol exhibits keto-enol tautomerism with its unstable keto tautomer cyclohexadienone, but only a tiny fraction of phenol exists as the keto form.
From the en.wikipedia.org
If the enol or enolate is formed in situ, the process can be considered as an acid or base-catalyzed reaction of one carbonyl compound with another.
From the en.wikipedia.org
In the final step the allylic hydroperoxide undergoes an acid-catalysed Hock fragmentation and rearrangement to afford a ring-opened keto-aldehyde enol.

  • An organic compound that contains a hydroxyl group bonded to a carbon atom which in turn is doubly bonded to another carbon atom
  • Enols (also known as alkenols) are alkenes with a hydroxyl group affixed to one of the carbon atoms composing the double bond. Alkenes with a hydroxyl group on both sides of the double bond are called enediols. Deprotonated anions of enols are called enolates. ...
  • Enols, or more formally, alkenols, are a type of reactive structure or intermediate in organic chemistry that is represented as an alkene (olefin) with a hydroxyl group attached to one end of the alkene double bond. The terms enol and alkenol are portmanteaus deriving from "-ene"/"alkene" and the "-ol" suffix indicating the hydroxyl group of alcohols, dropping the terminal "-e" of the first term...
