Preferred Label : general acid–base catalysis;
IUPAC definition : Catalysis by acids or bases in solution is said to be general when it is possible
to detect catalysis brought about by species other than the ions formed from the solvent
itself (e.g. when water is the solvent, by species other than H sup class plus /sup
and OH sup class minus /sup ions).;
