The simple enols [O-2H]-2-hydroxypropene,[0-2H]-3-chloro-2-hydroxypropene, 2, 2- dichlorovinyl alcohol, and hydroxypropadiene have been generated from reactive precursors in solution and characterized by NMR spectroscopy. The kinetics of ketonization of 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropene, hydroxypropadiene, and of the previously described (2)-prop- 1-en-1-01 and 2-methylprop-1-en-1-01 were studied by UV spectrophotometry at 15" C.
