Traces of acid or base can catalyze keto - enol tautomerization equilibrium. An example of this equilibrium is presented by 2-butanone. For this substance, write the structure of the corresponding tautomer (use the condensed formula representation). Also indicate where the balance is moving. Briefly explain ( one sentence ) the reason for this displacement. If it is compared to ethyl acetoacetate , does it change anything described for 2 - butanone ? Explain briefly.
