The deprotonation acidity constants, (pKa) of five monoazo derivatives were calculated by using the semi-empirical PM3 method and the obtained pKa values were compared with the experimental ones. Taking into account of the best fit results, the deprotonation centers and deprotonation patterns were determined. Using the calculated acidity constants the equlibrium constants, for keto-enol tautomerizm KT, were calculated. The evaluation of the toutomeric equlibrium constant volues revealed that the enol forms are more stable. It was observed that both deprotonation takes place on the aromatic ring which has two phenolic hydroxy groups. Whith the exception two molecules which deprotonates at phenolic hydroxy group located at ortho position of the other aromatic ring. The first deprotonation for all seems to take place at the para positioned phenolic hydroxyl group.
