Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structural formula for the enol form of diethyl malonate has to be drawn, the structural formulas for three enols of ethyl acetoacetate have to be drawn, among them, the most and least stable isomer has to be identified and the products of the reaction of bromine with both diethyl malonate and ethyl acetoacetate are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Enol refers to an intermediate structure that consists of an alkene group attached with a hydroxyl group at one end of its double bond.

The percentage of enol in keto-enol tautomerism depends upon the stability of enol formed.
