23. It has become obvious through the course of this work that perhaps a cautionary comment regarding the 'solvent' effect on relative orders of acid or base strength is warranted. It seems as though the relative order of acid or base strength determined from aqueous studies has become generalized to a point where it has replaced the order determined from gas phase studies. That 1-methylimidazole could possibly retain its nitrogenic proton as the 3-methylimidazolium cation in the melt is not precluded by the fact that it does not do so in water or any other solvent because 1-methylimidazole is intrinsically a strong base.
