Popis: | Keto-enol tautomerism of mono-substituted phenylpyruvic acids has been studied by the 1H and 13C NMR spectra. The equilibrium constants and the kinetic parameters for the tautomerism were obtained from the spectral data. The equilibrium constants are strongly dependent on the position of the substitution; the values for the o-substituted PPAs are several times greater than those of the m- or p-substituted derivatives. The PM3 calculations have been carried out to obtain the information on the preferred conformations of the tautomers and on the mechanism for the tautomerism. The results suggest the involvement of a solvent molecule in the equilibrium process. |
