Is NaNH2 a strong base?

Answers

Answered by rhansikakhandelwal10

NaNH2 is a strong base, intended to be strong enough to deprotonate the alkyne (pKa ≈ 25). But that would also make it strong enough to deprotonate the alcohol (pKa ≈ 16, close to water), and because the alcohol is a stronger acid, it would be deprotonated first.
