Are tautomers always metamers?
I'm wondering about tautomers and metamers. Are tautomers always metamers?
Not necessarily. Tautomers are isomers that differ by the location of a proton, while metamers are isomers that differ by the length of the carbon chain. So, while some tautomers may be metamers, it's not always the case.
