Abstract

A number of substituted ethyl formylacetates and ethyl formylmethylphosphonates were synthesized and their enolization studied by NMR. The ethyl halogen-or cyan)- formylacetates and formylmethylphosphonates exhibited stable trans-enolic forms in solutions. Variation of groupings bonded to the C O or P O groups affect the chelating centre basicity. With higher basicity the cis-enolic form is stabilized, and vice versa. ...
