Abstract

A series of benzylic oxime ethers were synthesized (CH 3 ON=C(CH 2 Ar) 2 , Ar=phenyl (1), 4-biphenylyl (2), 1-naphthyl (3)), and the equilibrium ion pair acidities in THF were determined. The lithium ion pair acidity of 1 was found to be approximately 5 pK units lower than the corresponding cesium ion apr acidity. Thermodynamic parameters for the equilibrium acidities were measured and are consistent for contact ion pair monomers being the important species in solution
