Özet

Acidity constants, pKa values, tautomeric and isomeric equilibrium constants, K-T and K-eq. values, of some 5(6)-substituted benzimidazole-2-thiones and related fixed models, in which the possibility of proton migration is eliminated by replacing the mobile proton with methyl group, were calculated using semi-empirically computed physical and thermodynamic parameters. Full geometry optimization was carried out using semi-empirical AM1, PM3 and PM5 methods. The theoretically calculated acidity constants were compared with the experimental values and a reasonable correlation was observed.
