tautomers are different compounds, they have distinct structures. By detecting each, the equilibrium between the zwitterion and its uncharged tautomer can be assessed.

Examples

Sulfamic acid crystallizes in the zwitterion form.

In crystals of anthranilic acid there are two molecules in the unit cell. One molecule is in the zwitterion form, the other is not.

In the
