Abstract
We have presented evidence in favor of an enol mechanism to explain the rapid alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl acetoacetate in water and the first-order kinetics observed when a dilute equimolar (1.0×10 −4 M) solution of ester and HO − is allowed to react at room temperature. 1 The mechanism first involves the establishment of base catalyzed keto–enol equilibrium, via the enolate anion, between the ester and enols CH 3 C(OH)CHCO 2 Et and CH 3 COCHC(OH)OEt ...
