ketonisation of two enols of carboxylic acids, 2,2-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)ethene-1,1-diol 2a and 2,2-bis(pentamethylphenyl)ethene-1,1-diol 2b have been studied at 25 °C in 1∶1 acetonitrile–water. The stability of these compounds arises from the inhibition of the β-carbon site to protonation, and this effect is now quantified. A pKa of 8.18 is reported for ionisation of the first hydroxyl group of
