The acidity constant, pQaE = 8.49, for the stable thioenol, triphenylethenethiol, was determined by spectrophotometric titration, and that, pQaE = 11.37, for its unstable oxygen analog, triphenylethenol, was determined by analysis of its ketonization rate using enol generated flash photolytically from triphenylvinyl bromide. (These acidity constants are concentration quotients applicable at 0.10 M ionic strength in 50 vol.% aqueous methanol.) This appears to be the first determination of the acid strength of a simple thioenol. Triphenylethenethiol was unreactive in dilute acid or base, but in concentrated perchloric acid solutions it was slowly transformed into diphenylacetophenone and 2,3-diphenylbenzo[b]thiophene; the mechanisms of these reactions are believed to involve rapid equilibrium protonation of the enol on the beta -carbon followed by rate-determining capture of the cation so formed, either externally by solvent or internally by one of the beta -phenyl groups of the ion.Key words: enol ketonization, thioenol, flash photolysis, vinyl halide.
