Abstract

In the present work, how the position of the second nitrogen in the conjugate acids of the three pyridazines viz., 1,2-pyridazine, 1,3-pyridazine (the pyrimidine) and 1,4-pyridazine (the pyrazine) and three naphthyridines viz., cinnoline, quinazoline and quinoxaline changes the pKaH systematically is taken up. They decrease nearly by a factor of half each time in the class of their own. In contrast there is an increase in the pKaH when we move from pyrazole to imidazole. The pKaH of pyrazole is less than imidazole by −4.45 units. Suitable explanations are given.
