Thionyl chloride behaves in some circumstances as though it dehydrates by tran -diaxial elimination, as described for phosphorous oxychloride. For example, the 5a-alcohol (102) undergoes anti-Saytzelf elimination to give the A" -olefin. In this particular example, phosphorous oxychloride-pyridine does not work, and acetic anhydride-sulfuric acid gives the A -isomer (ref. 185, p. 199).

Figure 14 4 Acetylation of salicylic acid to produce aspirin. The synthesis of aspirin is classified as an esterification reaction. Salicylic acid is treated with acetic anhydride, an acid derivative, causing a chemical reaction that turns salicylic acid s phenol group into an acetyl group, (R-OH R-OCOCH3). This process yields aspirin and acetic acid, which is considered a byproduct of this reaction. Small amounts of sulphuric acid (and occasionally phosphoric acid) are almost always used as a catalyst.

Place 150 g. of benzoic acid, 150 g. (139 ml.) of acetic anhydride and 0-2 ml. of syrupy phosphoric acid in a 500 ml. bolt-head flask. Fit the latter with a two-holed stopper carrying a dropping funnel and an efficient fractionating column (compare Fig. 7/7, 61, 1) it is advisable to lag the latter with asbestos cloth. Set up the flask in an oil bath or in a fusible metal bath. Distil the mixture very slowly and at such a rate that the temperature of the vapour at the head of the column does... 

The important chemical properties of acetyl chloride, CH COCl, were described ia the 1850s (10). Acetyl chloride was prepared by distilling a mixture of anhydrous sodium acetate [127-09-3J, C2H202Na, and phosphorous oxychloride [10025-87-3] POCl, and used it to interact with acetic acid yielding acetic anhydride. Acetyl chloride s violent reaction with water has been used to model Hquid-phase reactions. 

Jicyylic anhydride is formed by treatment of the acid with acetic anhydride or by reaction of acrylate salts with acryloyl chloride. Jicryloylchloride is made by reaction of acryhc acid with phosphorous oxychloride, or benzoyl or thionyl chloride. Neither the anhydride nor the acid chloride is of commercial interest. 

The synthesis of 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenone [89-84-9] (21) by acylation reactions of resorcinol has been extensively studied. The reaction is performed using acetic anhydride (104), acetyl chloride (105), or acetic acid (106). The esterification of resorcinol by acetic anhydride followed by the isomerization of the diacetate intermediate has also been described in the presence of zinc chloride (107). Alkylation of resorcinol can be carried out using ethers (108), olefins (109), or alcohols (110). The catalysts which are generally used include sulfuric acid, phosphoric and polyphosphoric acids, acidic resins, or aluminum and iron derivatives. 2-Chlororesorcinol [6201-65-1] (22) is obtained by a sulfonation—chloration—desulfonation technique (111). 1,2,4-Trihydroxybenzene [533-73-3] (23) is obtained by hydroxylation of resorcinol using hydrogen peroxide (112) or peracids (113). 

Many other polymerization processes have been patented, but only some of them appear to be developed or under development ia 1996. One large-scale process uses an acid montmorrillonite clay and acetic anhydride (209) another process uses strong perfiuorosulfonic acid reski catalysts (170,210). The polymerization product ia these processes is a poly(tetramethylene ether) with acetate end groups, which have to be removed by alkaline hydrolysis (211) or hydrogenolysis (212). If necessary, the product is then neutralized, eg, with phosphoric acid (213), and the salts removed by filtration. Instead of montmorrillonite clay, other acidic catalysts can be used, such as EuUer s earth or zeoHtes (214—216). 

Synthesis. Hydroxyhydroquiaone is not produced on a large scale, but many uses for it are being developed. The most convenient preparation of hydroxyhydroquiaone is the reaction of -benzoquiaone with acetic anhydride ia the preseace of sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid. The resultant triacetate (29) can be hydrolyzed to hydroxyhydroquiaone (86). 

Phenyl isothiocyanate has been prepared from thiocarbanilide by the action of phosphorus pentoxide, hydrochloric acid, iodine, phosphoric acid, acetic anhydride, and nitrous acid. It has also been prepared from ammonium phenyl dithiocarbamate by the action of ethyl chlorocarbonate, copper sulfate lead carbonate, lead nitrate, ferrous sulfate,and zinc sulfate. ... 

In 1909, Robinson demonstrated the utility of acylamidoketones as intermediates to aryl-and benzyl-substituted 1,3-oxazoles through cyclization with sulfuric acid. Extension of sulfuric acid cyclization conditions to alkyl-substituted oxazoles can give low yields, for example 10-15% for 2,5-dimethyl-l,3-oxazole. Wiegand and Rathbum found that polyphosphoric acid can provide alkyl-substituted oxazoles 4 in yields equal to or greater than those obtained with sulfuric acid. Significantly better yields are seen in the preparation of aryl- and heteroaryl-substituted oxazoles. For example, reaction of ketoamides 5 with 98% phosphoric acid in acetic anhydride gives oxazoles 6 in 90-95% yield. ...

For lab prepns, and occasionally in industrial use, more expensive nitrating agents may be employed, as for example solns of nitric acid in inert organic solvents (chlf, carbon tetrachloride, eth, nitromethane, etc), or a soln of nitric acid in phosphoric or acetic acids or in acetic anhydride, trifluoroacetic anhydride or trifluoro-me thane sulfonic acid (Ref 94)... 

The reaction of condensed phosphoric acid with castor oil gave a poly-phosphoric acid ester, which after neutralization with ammonia shows a high wetting power [32]. Glycerol trioleate was reacted with octametaphosphoric acid at 40°C in the presence of acetic acid anhydride. The reaction product was neutralized with triethanolamine [32,33]. 

Aminotrimethanephosphonic acid is formed from formamide, acetamide, urea, or alkanenitriles with phosphorous acid [296]. By reaction of monoalkyl phosphite or P406 with glacial acetic acid or the corresponding anhydride ethane-1 -hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonic acid is formed after hydrolysis [297,298]. P406 can be obtained from P4 and 02 in a high yield of 85-90% [299]. 

There are many methods for the preparation of ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonic acid including reacting phosphorus trichloride and acetic acid in the presence of tributylamine [106], phosphorus with acetic acid and oxygen [108], acetic anhydride with phosphorous acid and acetyl chloride [80,84-86,109,110], and acetic anhydride with phosphoric acid and acetic acid [111]. By another method ketene and phosphorous acid can be used [112], as shown in Eq. (68) ... 

The combination of copper salts and snlfnric acid is another widely used charring reagent. For preparation, 10 ml of concentrated H2SO4 has to be mixed carefully with 90 ml of acetic anhydride. Three grams of copper-II-acetate is dissolved in 100 ml of 8% phosphoric acid. After plate dipping or plate spraying, 15 min of heating at 125°C is recommended [17]. 

The course of acid-catalyzed acetylations with acetic anhydride may depend markedly on the concentration of the acid and the type of acid. Reaction of 7-(3-deoxy-3-nitro-/3-D-galactopyrano-syl)theophylline with acetic anhydride in the presence of one molar equivalent of perchloric acid gave the 2, 4, 6 -triacetate in 89% yield, but, in the presence of only a trace of the acid, 82% of the 4, 6 -diacetate was obtained.93 Treatment of the manno isomer of the nucleoside with acetic anhydride-boron trifluoride gave the 4, 6 -diacetate as a crystalline product (24%), whereas phosphoric acid as the catalyst yielded the 2, 4, 6 -triester (45%).
