7. During the past 12 years A. I. Shatenshtein and his co-workers have developed an acidity scale in Me2SO and an ion-pair acidity scale in DME, using Li+, K+, and Cs+counterions. (The pKa's measured in Me2SO, when placed on an absolute scale, usually agree with ours to within ±0.3 pK unit.) For recent work and leading references, see: Shatenshtein, A. I., et al. J. Org. Chem.
