Popis: pKa values for some azo dyes were determined by cyclic voltammetry in DMSO. The ORCA 3.0.3 program was used to for theoretical calculations, and the conductor‐like screening model (COSMO) was used to apply the solvent effect. pKa values were estimated using BP86, TPSS, B3LYP, PBE0, TPSSh, and PW6B95 density functionals in def2‐TZVP basis sets. The results were compared to evaluate the best functional.
