OH). The DFT/B3LYP/cc-pVTZ method was used to perform conformational analysis and study the structural features of the molecular and deprotonated forms of these compounds. It has been shown that many of the conformers may contain anintramolecular hydrogen bond (IHB) between the sulfonic group and the substituent, and the sulfonic group can be an IHB donor or an acceptor. The Gibbs energies of gas-phase deprotonation &Delta
rG0298 (kJ mol&ndash
1) were calculated for all compounds. It has been set that in ortho-substituted benzenesulfonic acids, the formation of various types of IHB is possible, having a significant effect on the &Delta
rG0298 values of gas-phase deprotonation. If the &ndash
SO3H group is the IHB donor, then an ion without an IHB is formed upon deprotonation, and the deprotonation energy increases. If this group is an IHB acceptor, then a significant decrease in &Delta
rG0298 of gas-phase deprotonation is observed due to an increase in IHB strength and the A&minus
anion additional stabilization. A proton donor ability comparative characteristic of the &ndash
SO3H group in the studied ortho-substituted benzenesulfonic acids is given, and the &Delta
rG0298 energies are compared with the corresponding values of ortho-substituted benzoic acids.
