Polar effects of substituents on the acid- and base- catalysed enolisation of benzyl phenyl ketone
Substituent effects on both acid- and base-catalysed enolisation of ketones are not yet well understood. A survey of kinetic and some preparative evidence recorded in the literature shows that replacement of an α-hydrogen by a substituent is accompanied by several effects. On the basis of preparativ...
