A Chemical Education Tool for Evaluation of pKa of Proton Dissociation Equilibrium of Any Substituted Benzene (XC6H5)
The sturdy empirical relation, ρ = (2.four)(2–i), concerning the Hammett ρ for proton dissociation of several acids and the quantity, “i”, of atoms concerning the ionizable hydrogen and the ring carbon (Andrew Williams, No cost Power Relationships in Organic and natural and Bioorganic Chemistry, Royal Culture of Chemistry, Cambridge, 2003, p. seventy five) is made use of to build a graph for 20 one distinctive proton dissociation equilibriums. The plot of Hammett ρ vs . quantity of atoms i concerning ionizable hydrogen and the ring carbon atom is noticed to be an fantastic exponential-decay locus. A very good common and clever worth of Hammett ρ is obtained for the benzene dissociation equilibriums by interpolating the locus of the correlation on to Y-axis. Employing this Hammett ρ worth and the Hammett equation log [(Ka)X / (Ka)H] = ρσ, the pKa worth can be calculated for any substituted benzene knowing the pKa worth of benzene to be 43. The factors for proton dissociation equilibriums of phenylethyl ammonium ions and benzyl alcohols deviated from the graph therefore not involved in the correlation. Possible explanations are supplied for deviation of these two equilibriums.
one. Introduction
A appreciable desire on the software of attenuation influence due to methylene team was obtained from our laboratory one, 2, three, four. The emergence of Andrew Williams’ sturdy empirical relation 5 dependent on the existence of attenuation influence, systematically noticed in the research of acid dissociation equilibriums of benzoic acids, phenyl acetic acids and phenyl propionic acids is a thriving accomplishment. The very same was prolonged to fragrant one, 2, and aliphatic three, four devices from our laboratory. This empirical relation 5 is additional designed use in the existing get the job done to convey 20 one distinctive proton dissociation equilibrium reactions on one rope. A very good common and clever worth of Hammett ρ is obtained for the benzene dissociation equilibriums by interpolating the locus of the correlation on to Y-axis. And this research is prolonged to calculate pKa values applying the Hammett equation log [(Ka)X / (Ka)H] = ρσ, for any substituted benzenes knowing the pKa worth of unsubstituted benzene to be 43.
three. Discussion
First permit us see the dissociation equilibriums of distinctive acids with raising duration of carbon chain concerning ionizable hydrogen and the ring carbon/nitrogen atom. Table one narrates 20 one distinctive proton dissociation equilibrium reactions with Hammett ρ values, and the quantity of atoms concerning ionizable hydrogen and the ring carbon/nitrogen. The Hammett ρ values are supplied in the raising buy down to the desk. Employing the Williams’ equation one

in which mone is an arbitrary continual, a plot of Hammett ρ vs . quantity of atoms concerning ionizable hydrogen and ring carbon is designed and proven in Figure one. From equation one it is obvious that if i = , i.e. if there are no atoms concerning the ionizable hydrogen and the ring carbon atom, the case in point would be benzene by itself. Then the Hammett ρ worth would be mone(2 – i) = mone(2 – ). Here, from the curve healthy of the info, m1 was found to be 2.4917 (see box in the determine). Hence the Hammett ρ worth for proton dissociation equilibrium (equation 2) of benzene will be (2.4917)2 = 6.27.

Figure one. Plot of Hammett ρ vs . quantity of atoms (m) concerning ioniable hydrogen and the ring carbon atom
And this worth is very close to the common (5.6 + 6.6 = twelve.2 /2 =6.one) of the two values beforehand claimed, one for proton dissociation equilibrium of benzeneone and the other proton dissociation equilibrium of pyridinium ions 2 (equation three). In each the situations “i”, quantity of
(three) atoms concerning ionizable hydrogen and ring carbon/ nitrogen is zero.
But the factors of the equilibriums of the compounds 9 and 11 deviated from the correlation. The deviation could be due to the anomalous Hammett ρ obtained from the anomalous pKa values of phenylethyl ammonium ions 6. The anomalistic pKa values are due to the formation of the much more steady zwitter ion of four-hydroxy phenylethyl ammonium ion and even much more stabilization of the three, four-dihydroxy phenylethyl ammonium ion due to hydrogen bonding, each are as proven below (equations four and 5)

(four) and
(5) The anomalous Hammett ρ obtained from the proton dissociation equilibrium of benzyl alcohols is due to: the Hammett ρ worth for benzyl alcohols dissociation equilibriums really should be merely one.11 7, which is half of that of phenoxide ion equilibriums, dependent on the truth that the Hammett ρ worth for phenyl acetic acids has come to be lowered to half of that of benzoic acids on the introduction of one CH2 team concerning the carboxyl ate carbon and the benzene ring carbon. But the actual ρ worth was found to be one.seventy three 8. Just one putative rationalization of this, offered by Wiberg 9, is: In gasoline-section, alkoxide ions, the negatively billed oxygen atom polarizes the C-H bonds, placing appreciable unfavorable cost at the hydrogen atoms and a optimistic cost at the carbon atom. The carbon has an interesting Coulombic interaction with the negatively billed oxygen, primary to a shorter C-O bond, which may possibly lead to considerably greater substituent influence and in switch in aqueous option even greater. An additional rationalization may possibly arrive from the hyperconjugation of the benzyloxide ion, which may possibly be even additional stabilized by cost delocalization onto benzene ring as it is proven below (Equation. 6) to add in the direction of bigger Hammett ρ worth.
(6) Calculation of pKa of any substituted benzene: The Hammett ρ for the proton dissociation equilibriums (equation 2) from the existing get the job done is 6.27. And the Hammett equation is:
(7) Rewriting this equation in terms of pKa we get
(8) (pKa)H of benzene is 43 ten, Hammett ρ is 6.27 and if the (pKa)X of nitrobenzene (for X = NO2) is to be calculated, assuming the ‘the hydrogen” para to nitro team in benzene ring is to be deprotonated as proven in equation 9, then σ for four-NO2 substituent has to be taken as .78 7.
(9) Substituting these values in equation 8
Hence the pKa of nitrobenzene with deprotonation at para situation is 38.one. Similarly for any substituted benzene the pKa values could be calculated.
