    In B, there's no cross conjugation + There are two -CO groups completely available to delocalise the negative charge and involve it in resonance which increases the stability of conjugate anion and hence, increases its enol content because of high acidity.

    In C, there's only one -CO, therefore, rule it out very first.

    So, the anion which will be generated after removal of H+ will not be very much stabilised.. because -CO is conjugated with Phenyl in A, and with O in B.

    In Q19, in options A and D, there's cross conjugation with Phenyl and Oxygen respectively.

    Dear Sourav, enol content basically depends on the acidic strength of the Hydrogen involved in keto-enol tautomerism

    eduncle-logo-app

    yes sir

    eduncle-logo-app

    yes what will be the answer?

    Hope you understood the concept, Sourav. Comment if your problem still persists, we'll discuss.

    sir plz explain qs no 19

    Sourav, let me explain this to you.. Nitrogen is more electronegative as compared to Carbon. therefore, when deprotonation occurs in ii, it will leave a minus charge on Nitrogen...which is more stable as compared to negative charge over Carbon. Therefore, ii is most acidic.

    Now, come to I and III. In option 3, there's an Oxygen which is in conjugation with one of the -CO group... therefore after acquiring minus charge at Carbon, that negative charge will not be delocalised effectively over -CO due to this cross conjugation.

    eduncle-logo-app

    When deprotonation occurs in iii, it will not effectively participate in resonance because, left hand side -CO is already involved in conjugation with O of the ring. Therefore, the anion is not stabilized as much as it can in 1, therefore the conjugate base of the acid is less stable. Hence, iii is less acidic than i.

    Priyanshu kumar Best Answer

    option A is correct answer

    eduncle-logo-app

    in structure 2 after deprotonation the negative charge is there is on more EN nitrogen atom..so it is most stable among these

    eduncle-logo-app

    In structure 1st negative charge is there on carbon which is less EN than nitrogen

    eduncle-logo-app

    got sourav?

    eduncle-logo-app

    how 1 more acidic than 3?

    eduncle-logo-app

    in structure 3 there is cross conjugation after deprotonation...so CB base formed is least stable
