hypervalent_iodine Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I understand English is not your first language, but I cannot understand your question. Could you reword it? Are you asking if THF can deprotonate resorcinol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misganaw Tegegne Ayana Posted December 23, 2019 Author Share Posted December 23, 2019 I want to say, Can an hydrous (dry) THF act as abase and deprotonates resorcinol. If you have the Pka value data for both THF & resorcinol please suggest me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The resorcinol would dissolve, but there will be no reaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
