ABSTRACT
The stabilities of the C6-centered carbanions derived from 1,3-dimethyluracil, N-methyl-2-pyridone, and N-methyl-4-pyridone were systematically investigated in the gas phase and in DMSO and water solutions. The stabilities of the carbanions in the gas phase and DMSO were directly measured through their reactions with carbon acids with known proton affinity or p
