Lyate ion

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-006821

The anion produced by the autoprotolysis of a solvent, which is the removal of a proton from a solvent molecule. This ion is the strongest base that can exist in that particular solvent system. For example, the hydroxide ion (OH⁻) is the lyate ion of water, and the ethoxide ion (CH₃CH₂O⁻) is the lyate ion of ethanol.
