Abstract: The stoichiometric protonati on constants of 15 esters (methyl and ethyl esters of glycine, L-alanine, L -valine, L - leucine, L -phenylalanine, L -serine, L -methionine and methyl ester of L -isoleucine) in 20-80% (v/v) ethanol-water mixtures have been determined. The effect of solvent on α -amino acid methyl- and ethyl esters have also been determined at ionic strength of 0. 1 M NaCl and at 25°C under nitrogen atmosphere. A potentiometric method is used and the calculation of the constants has been carried out using PKAS computer programme. The logarithm of the protonation constants of α-amino acid esters is found to decrease linearly with increase in ethanol contents. The variation of these constants is discussed on the basis of specific solute-solvent interactions.
