[ 1 ] - Tautomeric equilibria for ionized oxamic acid - inhibitor of LDH

Amide-iminol tautomerism was studied for ionized oxamic acid (OA+•) in the gas phase using theDFT method with the UB3LYP functional and various basis sets {6-31++G(d,p), 6-311+G(d,p), and augcc-pVDZ}. Among twenty tautomers-rotamers possible for OA+•, eleven isomers were found to bethermodynamically stable. Similarly as for the neutral molecule, ionization (OA → OA+• + e) favors theamidization ...
