Overview

Vinylogous is an adjective used to apply the concept of vinylogy taught in intermediate undergraduate through graduate/research organic chemistry. Vinylogy has been defined as the transmission of electronic effects through a conjugated organic bonding system. The concept was introduced in 1926 by Ludwig Claisen to explained the acidic properties of formylacetone and related ketoaldehydes. Specifically, the concept describes structures and reactivity that involve an atom (or group of atoms) attached via a carbon-carbon double bond (, a vinyl moiety) to a further electropositive (electron deficient) atom/group (e.g., an electron-withdrawing group, EWG, such as a carbonyl).
