Abstract
The proton affinity (PA) of a number of azoles and oxazoles was calculated by MNDO and STO-3G ab initio methods. In spite of the fact that these methods predict poorly the absolute values of the PA, a good correlation between the PA values calculated by STO-3G and the experimental values of PA as well as pKa values exists. Correlation of the experimental values with MNDO results are much worse.
