What does ENOLIC mean in Scrabble?
adjective
chemistrytechnical
Relating to or characteristic of an enol, an organic compound in which a hydroxyl group is attached to a carbon atom joined by a double bond to another carbon.
Enolic is a chemist's word, used to describe a compound, a form, or a reaction that involves the enol arrangement rather than its more common relative, the ketone. Many organic molecules can shift between a ketone form and an enolic form, a change chemists call tautomerism, and which form is favored affects how the molecule reacts. Outside laboratories and chemistry textbooks the word is almost never needed.
