1937 Nature 31 July 198/1 An in vitro intramolecular shifting of the enol linkage along the carbon chain in hexoses... Such a shifting of enol linkages would make it possible to understand how l-lactic acid can derive from d-glucose in vivo.

1946 Nature 21 Dec. 910/1 Furthermore, N-phenylsydnone exhibits its relationship to enols in that it undergoes instantaneous bromination in glacial acetic acid solution.

1964 N. G. Clark Mod. Org. Chem. xv. 297 It is possible to prepare one or other of the pure tautomers from ordinary ethyl acetoacetate by reason of the greater volatility of the ‘enol’ form.

1894 Jrnl. Chem. Soc. 66 ii. 433 Compounds containing the group :C:C(OH) are said to be ‘enolic’.

1894 Jrnl. Chem. Soc. 66 ii. 434 No evidence supporting the existence of the tautomeric enolic form sometimes attributed to malonic acid was obtained.

1902 Encycl. Brit. XXVI. 725/1 In some cases compounds are obtained from it [sc. ethylic aceto-acetate] which are clearly of an enolic form..i.e., a form which is both an ethenoid and an ol or alcohol.

1937 Nature 31 July 198/1 The occurrence of enolization and dismutation would explain the inhibition of glucolysis proper by fluoride and iodoacetate.
