As part of a general investigation of β-ketonitrile derivatives, this paper deals with the hydrazone-enehydrazine tautomerism of characteristic derivatives of cyanoaldehydes and cyanoketones.The structure of the tautomer depends on the aldehydic or ketonic nature of the α-cynocarbonyl compound and on the substitution of the reacted hydrazine.Monosubstituted hydrazines lead with α-cyanoketones to hydrazones of E-configuration, while Z-enehydrazines are exclusively obtained with cyanoaldehydes.These enehydrazines are electrochemically oxidizable into azoic derivatives with which they form a reversible couple.The 1,1-disubstituted hydrazines, when reacted with aldehydes or ketones, always lead to enehydrazines.
