The correct statement regarding a carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha -carbon, is

  • a carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha -carbon rapidly equilibrates with its corresponding enol and this process is known as aldehyde-ketone equilibration.

  • a carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon rapidly equilibrates with its corresponding enol and this process is known as carbonylation

  • a carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon rapidly equilibrates with its corresponding enol and this process is known as keto-enol tautomerism

  • a carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha carbon never equilibrates with its corresponding enol

Solution

C.

a carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon rapidly equilibrates with its corresponding enol and this process is known as keto-enol tautomerism

In keto-enol tautomerism. a carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha -carbon rapidly equilibrates with the corresponding enol.
