Eleven monosubstituted diphenylamines have been synthetized, and concentration ratio of the protonated and free bases has been measured in aqueous sulphuric acid in the concentration range 1.0 . 10-3 to 9.0 mol l-1. An algorithm has been suggested and used for determination of optimized values of pK and H'' acidity function within sulphuric acid concentration range 0.05 to 9.0 mol l-1. The results have been compared with literature data and discussed in terms of theory of acidity functions and linear free energy relationships.

Linear relationships exist between the logarithms of equilibrium quotients, [SH+]/[S][H+], of diverse bases as they vary with acid concentration in moderately concentrated mineral acids. For purposes of formulating these linear free energy relationships in standard form, the equilibrium quotient for protonation of a hypothetical aromatic primary amine of pKa zero has been chosen as horizontal coordinate; this is given by (−H0 − log [H+]). Log ([SH+]/[S]) + H0 is plotted against (H0 + log [H+]). The slope, [Formula: see text] of the linear plot is a parameter which characterizes the response of the equilibrium quotient to changing acid concentration. The intercept represents the thermodynamic pKa of the base. This constitutes a general method for estimating the pKa of any base which undergoes protonation in moderately concentrated mineral acid, with reference to the single acidity function, H0. For bases of diverse type, pK's estimated by this method are in good agreement with those estimated by the acidity function method. Use of the new correlation procedure as a check on the validity of several acidity functions and its application to equilibria not involving proton gain or loss are also discussed.

The protonation of eleven thioamides, five thioureas, and four thionbenzoates in aqueous sulfuric acid has been found to follow the HT acidity function with acceptable accuracy. Protonation constants pKTH+ obtained by use of HT agreed fairly well with pKTH+ values obtained by the Bunnett–Olsen method, but less well with those obtained by the Marziano–Cimino–Passerini procedure. Linear free-energy relationships of pKTH+ values are discussed.
