Thus phenol is approximately 107 times more acidic than an alcohol of similar size and shape. Recall from Fig. 3.2

3 Acidity of Phenols Most phenols are weaker acids than carboxylic acids and stronger acids than alcohols When phenols react with a base the phenol is converted into a phenoxide anion (see reactions below) The phenoxide anion is more soluble in water than the corresponding phenol Consequently if a water-insoluble phenol is treated with an

Is phenol a weak acid?
Compounds like alcohols and phenol which contain an -OH group attached to a hydrocarbon are very weak acids. Alcohols are so weakly acidic that, for normal lab purposes, their acidity can be virtually ignored. However, phenol is sufficiently acidic for it to have recognisably acidic properties - even if it is still a very weak acid.
What is the effect of benzene on the acidity of phenols?
Resonance effect: the benzene ring stabilizes the the phenoxide ion by resonance delocalization of the negative charge. 24.5: Substituent Effects on the Acidity of Phenols. Electron-donating substituents make a phenol less acidic by destabilizing the phenoxide ion (resonance effect)
What is the solubility of phenol?
Hence, the solubility of phenol tends to decrease with an increase in the size of the aryl group present. 3. Acidity of Phenols Phenols react with active metals like sodium, potassium, etc. and form the corresponding phenoxide. These reactions of phenols say about them that they are acidic in nature.
Why is ethoxide more acidic than phenol?
And as such there is no resonance in alkoxide ion ,so ethoxide ion is less stable than phenoxide ion and attracts it's H+ ion readily. 6. Therefore phenol is more acidic than alcohol (ethanol).
