โฆ Synopsis
The effects that solvents have on the tautomerization of N,N-dimethylvaline were analyzed using a linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) approach. In solution, the population of the zwitterionic tautomer is dictated mainly by the nature of the medium. Acidic solvent molecules appear to be more concentrated near the carboxylate functionality of the zwitterionic tautomer compared to the concentration of basic solvent molecules in the region of the dimethylammonium functionality.
