In chemistry, a lyate ion is the anion derived by the deprotonation of a solvent molecule.[1] For example a hydroxide ion is formed from the deprotonation of water and methoxide (CH3O-) is the anion formed by the deprotonation of methanol. See also lyonium ion which is the cation formed by the protonation of a solvent molecule.
