Deprotonation Mechanism of Methyl Gallate: UV Spectroscopic and Computational Studies
In the present paper, methyl gallate (MeG), a simple polyphenol and also the monomer of hydrolysable tannins, was selected to study the deprotonation process for the hydroxyls of the galloyl group by the combined use of spectroscopic measurements and quantum chemical calculations. The results of qua...
