title: Kinetic acidity of aliphatic hydrocarbons. Hydrogen isotope exchange with cesium cyclohexylamide in cyclohexylamine.
abstract: Kinetic acidities are reported for methane, ethane, propane, cyclopropane, isobutane, neopentane, tetramethylbutane, norbornane, nortricyclene, and adamantane by tritiodeprotonation or deuteriodeprotonation in cyclohexylamine catalyzed by cesium cyclohexylamide.
