Abstract
The proton affinity (PA) of trimethylsilanol has been determined by high pressure mass spectrometry from the enthalpy change for the reaction [Formula: see text]. ΔH0 = −30.1 ± 1.9 kcal mol−1 giving PA (Me3SiOH) = 183.7 kcal mol−1. This latter value is 10 kcal mol−1 less than that of the carbon analogue, tert-butanol.Keywords
