Chapter 7, Problem 7.41P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

It is to be explained why the equilibrium percentage of the first given molecule in its keto form is lower than that of the second given molecule, referring to Table 7-1.

Concept introduction:

In aqueous basic or acidic conditions, ketones and aldehydes exist in rapid equilibrium with a rearranged form called enol form. As a ketone or aldehyde, the species is called the keto form. In the enol form, the species has a carbon atom that is simultaneously a part of a C = C bond, which is a characteristic of alkenes, and is bonded to OH, which is a characteristic of alcohol. These two forms are always in equilibrium with each other, and this is called keto-enol tautomerization. In enol form, the alkyl substitution of the alkene group provides more stability to the molecule.
