Deprotonation (or dehydronation) is the removal (transfer) of a proton (or hydron, or hydrogen cation), (H+) from a Brønsted–Lowry acid in an acid–base...

Concerted metalation-deprotonation (CMD) is a mechanistic pathway through which transition-metal catalyzed C–H activation reactions can take place. In...

In organic chemistry, enolates are organic anions derived from the deprotonation of carbonyl (RR'C=O) compounds. Rarely isolated, they are widely used...

(EWGs) enhance the ease of deprotonation of phosphonium salts. This behavior is illustrated by the finding that deprotonation of triphenylcarbethoxymethylphosphonium...

complementary process, when a proton is removed from a Brønsted–Lowry acid, is deprotonation.) Some examples include The protonation of water by sulfuric acid: H2SO4...

in this case mediated by the enolate or the proton source. In the deprotonation of an unsymmetrical ketone, the kinetic product is the enolate resulting...

so it is formed by the self-ionization of ammonia. It is produced by deprotonation of ammonia, usually with strong bases or an alkali metal. Azanide has...

widely. Important examples include the amino acids and fatty acids. Deprotonation of a carboxylic acid gives a carboxylate anion. Carboxylic acids are...

Enols are derivatives of vinyl alcohol, with a C=C−OH connectivity. Deprotonation of organic carbonyls gives the enolate anion, which are a strong nucleophile...

along with several other hindered lithium diorganylamides to effect the deprotonation of esters at the α position without attack of the carbonyl group. LDA...
