Thermodynamic acid dissociation constants of aromatic thiols
Abstract
The thermodynamic acid dissociation constants of thiophenol and a series of meta- and para-substituted thiophenols have been measured in water at 25°C by the e.m.f.–spectrophotometric method. The results and the significance of the linear free energy relationship for thiophenols are discussed and compared with the limited data available in the literature.
