keto-enol tautomerism of ketones
"Keto-enol tautomerism of ketones is a reversible chemical process in which a keto form of a ketone molecule can transform into an enol form, and vice versa. This transformation occurs due to the movement of hydrogen atoms within the molecule, resulting in the rearrangement of double bonds and the formation of a different chemical structure."
