Abstract
ABSTRACTWe develop a nonsolvatochromic comparison method for the determination of the α1 scale of solvent hydrogen‐bond acidity by means of 19F NMR spectrometry. We compare the 19F chemical shifts of 4‐fluoro‐2‐methylpyridine (as a sensitive hydrogen‐bond acceptor probe) and of 4‐fluoronitrobenzene (as a chemically similar but less basic reference probe). This so‐called 19F solvatomagnetic comparison method yields the hydrogen‐bonding contribution to δ (19F)(4‐fluoro‐2‐methylpyridine) that is well correlated to α1 values obtained from the solvatochromism of Reichardt's betaine dye. Therefore, this solvatomagnetic comparison method is applied to determine the α1 values of 13 choline chloride–based deep eutectic solvents.
