GC/MS and GC/IR Analysis of Enolketo Ethyl Acetoacetate

Keto-enol tautomerism of ethyl acetoacetate was studied by GC/MS at different temperature of ion source, GC interface, injector, column. The mass spectra of the isomers were analyzed by deuterium exchange technique and high resolution mass spectrometry. The IR spectra of the isomers were obtained by GC/IR.
