Notes:
Solvent effects on the tautomerism and polymerization of ethyl 3-oxo-pentenoate (1) were studied. Regression analysis of the tautomeric constant reveals that the equilibria depend on the polarity and hydrogen-bond donor acidity of the solvents. The polymerization was investigated in benzene and acetonitrile. In both solvents, the kinetic results do not meet the conventional model of radical polymerization.
