Abstract
When titrating very weak acids, such as phenols, enols, or sulfonamides, in nonaqueous solvents, the endpoint detection is easier and more accurate when stronger bases are used as titrants. This is because both the potential jump in a potentiometric titration and the color change in a visual titration become more pronounced.
