The reaction of the strong monophosphazene base with the weakly acidic phenol leads to the formation of a phenol-phenolate anion with a moderately strong hydrogen bond. Application of the more powerful tetraphosphazene base (Schwesinger base) renders the isolation of the corresponding salt with a free phenolate anion possible. This compound represents the first species featuring the free phenolate anion [H<sub>5</sub> C<sub>6</sub> -O]<sup>-</sup> . The deprotonation of phenol derivatives with t ...[more]
