The correct statement regarding a carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon is:

1. A carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon rapidly equilibrates with its corresponding enol and this process is known as aldehyde-ketone equilibration.
2. A carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon rapidly equilibrates with its corresponding enol and this process is known as carbonylation.
3. A carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon rapidly equilibrates with its corresponding enol and this process is known as keto-enol tautomerism.
4. A carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon never equilibrates with its corresponding enol.
