Effect of the medium on the ionization constants of some triazole compounds.
The deprotonation and acid ionization constants of some triazole derivatives in various aqueous-organic solvent mixtures were determined potentiometrically at 20 degrees C. The organic solvents used were methanol, ethanol, DMF, DMSO, acetonitrile, acetone and dioxane. The high stabilization of both the non-protonated form by dispersion forces and of the proton by its interaction with the organic solvent are the main factors influencing the deprotonation constant in aqueous mixtures of methanol, ethanol, DMF or DMSO. On the other hand, the hydrogen bonding interactions and the solvent basicity, in addition to the electrostatic effect, contribute to the major effects in the deprotonation process (in solutions enriched with acetonitrile, acetone or dioxane) and the acid ionization process in different aqueous-organic solvent mixtures. Some thermodynamic parameters (delta H, delta G, delta S) of the ionization processes in a pure aqueous medium are also determined and discussed.
