Laser Raman spectroscopy permits an identification of the N‐1 and N‐3 deprotonated tautomers of uracil and thymine and a qualitative estimation of their distribution in solution. The applicability of the method with respect to the differentiation of other heterocyclic tautomers is briefly discussed.
