Solution

The correct option is A

III only


In tautomerism, α - hydrogen must be present in the molecule. Thus, molecule II will not show tautomerism. As at bridge, double bond is highly unstable. Thus, molecule I will also not show tautomerism.

For III molecule,So only, III molecule will show tautomerism.

Thus, correct option is (a)
