Abstract
The basicity constant of benzotriazole in aqueous solution was determined, PKBH+ = 0.06 +/-0.02, 25 degreesC. The fused benzene ring was found to weak ly affect the basicity of the 1,2,3-triazole ring. Cations of the conjugate acids of benzotriazole and benzodiazoles are solvated differently. Polar s olvents better solvate benzotriazolium cation.
