THE INFRARED SPECTRA OF MALONATE ESTERS

Abstract
The infrared spectra of a number of malonate esters have been examined. Most of them exhibit two ester carbonyl stretching bands which have been shown not to be due to enolization and conjugate chelation or to association. The influence of α-substituents is discussed, as well as the reason for the splitting of the band.
