Abstract
The gas-phase acidities of several alpha, omega-alkanediols were measu red with the equilibrium method in an ion cyclotron resonance spectrom eter. The values obtained imply cyclization of the structures via an i ntramolecular hydrogen bond. The results are in quantitative disagreem ent with those obtained by the method of dissociation of the excited d imer species; care must be used in applying that method to ensure that all of the criteria for relating kinetics to equilibria are met.
