MCQ
Ethyl acetoacetate shows, which type of isomerism
  • A
    Chain
  • B
    Optical
  • C
    Metamerism
  • Tautomerism

Answer

Correct option: D.
Tautomerism
d
(d) $C{H_3}COO{C_2}{H_5}$ shows tautomeric isomerism.

$C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop C\limits^{||} }\limits^O - O - C{H_2} - C{H_3}$ $ \rightleftharpoons $ $\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\,OH} \\ 
  {|\,\,\,\,} \\ 
  {C{H_2} = C - O{C_2}{H_5}} 
\end{array}$
