Inductive and resonance effects on the acidities of phenol, enols, and carbonyl alpha-hydrogens.
Inductive effects account for 1/3 of the enhanced acidity of phenol versus cyclohexanol, 2/5 of the enhanced acidity of enol versus methanol, and l/4 of the enhanced acidity of carbonyl alpha-hydrogens versus methane.
