It was shown by PMR spectroscopy that methyl 5,5-dimethyl-2,4-dioxohexanoate acylhydrazones exist in solutions as mixtures of the geometric isomers of the hydrazone and cyclic 5-hydroxypyrazoline forms. In the series of aroylhydrazones the introduction of electron-withdrawing substituents into the aromatic ring of the N-aroyl radical shifts the ring-chain equilibrium slightly toward the 5-hydroxypyrazoline tautomer. In the series of products from condensation with the hydrazides of aliphatic acids increase in the size of the substituent in the acyl part favors the open-chain hydrazone form.
