Solution

The correct option is C
Tautomers are isomers of a compound which differ only in the position of the protons and pi cloud. The carbon skeleton of the compound is unchanged. A reaction which involves simple proton transfer in an intramolecular fashion is called a tautomerism.
Tautomerisation can be catalysed by a base or an acid.
