Article Synopsis
  • - A study was conducted on various triazolium salts to measure their acidity, specifically their pKa values, in DMSO at 25 °C using a method involving bracketing indicators.
  • - The research focused on how different structural changes affected the acidity of the triazolium cation, with an emphasis on electronic properties determined by Hammett σ parameters.
  • - Unique findings include the first reported pKa value for an azolium salt that produces a mesionic carbene, which aids in selecting suitable bases for deprotonating these salts and linking pKa values to the reactivity of the resulting carbenes.
