(organic chemistry) An organic compound containing a hydroxyl group bonded to a carbon atom which is doubly bonded to another carbon atom..

A solution to the use of the thermodynamic ketone enolate lies in the selective formation and reaction of silyl enol ethers.
It is interesting to note that relative enol stability (pK_E) plays little or no role in the relative acidity of enols for example, as in the case of 45 and 45’²⁴³.
Use enol when its meaning, tone and grammar fit the full sentence. A synonym is not always a direct replacement.
