title: Spectrophotometric determination of acidity constants of some anthraquinones and anthrones in methanol-water mixtures.
abstract: The acidity constants of some synthetic derivatives of 9,10-anthraquinone and 9-anthrone in methanol-water mixtures at 25 degrees have been determined spectrophotometrically. A linear reverse relationship is observed between pK(a1) of all acids and the mole fraction of methanol. The influence of substituents in the molecular structure on the ionization constants is discussed.
