Abstract

A distillate containing 25% vinylacetic acid has been obtained from trans-crotonic acid. Pure vinylacetic acid has been obtained from this by successive thermal equilibrations and distillations. Vinylacetic acid has been subjected to tautomerization conditions in acidic, neutral, and basic media, the latter in normal and in heavy water. These observations are coordinated in an attempt to arrive at plausible pathways for the various transformations observed.
