Generalization of Acid‐Base Diagrams Based on the Unified pH‐Scale

Abstract: So far, pH‐lgci diagrams have been exclusively used for the theoretical description of acid‐base equilibria in aqueous solutions. Here, this approach is extended to include acid‐base equilibria in nonaqueous non‐hydrogen‐bond‐donor (non‐HBD) solvents following the acid‐base theory of Brønsted and Lowry, and using a unified pH scale (pHabs scale). This way, it is possible to estimate the approximate concentrations of all the species involved in acid‐base equilibria in a solution at any solution acidity pH(HS) ,… Show more

“…Himmel et al [22] established a new unified Brønsted acidity scale at 1 bar and 298.15 K. Following the origin of the unified acidity scale, the scale has been extended for several solvent-water mixtures. Several studies [25][26][27][28] have investigated the new concept of a unified pH scale in non-aqueous, non-hydrogen bond donor solvents, such as in ethanol, methanol, acetonitrile, and also when mixed with water and saline solutions. Recently, a large European research group [29] developed and validated reliable and universally applicable measurement procedures for determining absolute pH.…”

“…Because pH is defined as a solution property, only liquids can exhibit a pH. pH is usually defined in terms of the autoionization of water, but the concept of pH can also be extended to neat nonaqueous solvents as long as they have some ability to donate a proton [ 160 ]. The solution pH affects chemical properties such as the protonation state of molecules in the solution and hence their potential to participate in chemical reactions or assembly into supramolecular structures.…”

“…[17][18][19] However, plenty of recent literature reports are available that deal with aqueous and non-aqueous pK a data. [20][21][22][23] Nevertheless, the pK a values and pK a scale of a particular compound in various solvents may often be unavailable. From the aforementioned discussions, it is clear that visualization of acid-base equilibria and determination of pK a values have paramount importance for understanding the various chemical, biochemical processes and their applicability in versatile fields such as catalysis, [2] drug delivery, [11] material science [5] and sensing applications.…”
