Why is the acidity order true? CHX3COCHX3>CHX3COX2CHX3>CHX3CON(CHX3)X2
I deduced that in second and third option there is a −I effect of the methoxy group, N(CHX3)X2 and a +R effect, too so the attached keto-carbon develops a positive charge and the conjugate base becomes unstable due to the +R effect of methoxy and N(CHX3)X2 groups.
Is my logic right?
Please tell me any explanation you can think of.
