In this contribution we extent the use of the conductor-like screening model for realistic solvation (COSMO-RS) to the prediction of pK a values in acetone, a commonly used dipolar aprotic solvent. For this, we calculated the Gibbs free energy of dissociation of 120 organic acids (nine acrylic acids, 87 benzoic acids, nine phenols, and 15 benzenesulfonamides) using COSMO-RS at the two levels BP-TZVP and BP-
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
