In many biochemical reactions which involves the formation of an enolate intermediate, the carbonyl oxygen of the substrate is coordinated to a divalent metal ion (usually zinc or magnesium) in the active site. Explain with structural drawings, how this ion-dipole interactions affect the acidity of the a-protons?
