Isophthalic acid (m.p. 347°C), made by oxidation of /w-xylene, has also been introduced for resins. The resins have higher heat distortion temperatures and flexural moduli and better craze resistance. They are also useful in the preparation of resilient gel coats.

Tnflic acid is an excellent catalyst for the nitration of aromatic compounds [.S7]. In a mixture with nitnc acid, it forms the highly electrophilic nitronium inflate, which can be isolated as a white crystalline solid Nitronium inflate is a powerful nitrating reagent in inert organie solvents and in tnflic acid or sulfuric acid. It nitrates benzene, toluene, chlorobenzene, nitrobenzene, m-xylene, and benzotn-fluoride quantitatively in the temperature range of-110 to 30 °C with exeeptionally high positional selectivity [87],...

Rather different experimental results were obtained by de la Mare et a/.208, 209, who studied chlorination by hypochlorous acid in 51, 75 and 98 % aqueous acetic acid. With the latter medium, the chlorination of anisole or m-xylene (at an unspecified temperature) was independent of the concentration of aromatic, and catalysed by perchloric acid to a much greater extent than an equimolar amount of lithium perchlorate the reaction was also catalysed by the base, sodium acetate. The reactive species was postulated as chlorine acetate produced... 

An investigation of the relative rates of bromination of benzene, toluene, m-and p-xylene by bromine in acetic acid, catalysed by mercuric acetate, revealed relative rates almost identical with those obtained with molecular bromine322, though as in the bromination of biphenyl by bromine acetate (p. 129) it is quite inconsistent for a much more reactive electrophile to have the same selectivity. Relative rates were (molecular bromination values in parenthesis) benzene 1.0 toluene, 480 (610) p-xylene, 2.1 x 103 (2.2 x 103) m-xylene 2.0 x 10s (2.1 x 10s). 

A smaller dependence of rate upon acidity for desulphonation compared to sulphonation was also observed by Muramoto704, the lograte coefficient versus — H0 slopes being respectively 0.7 and 1.67 (m-xylene, 100 °C), 0.6 and 1.5 (p-xylene, 130 °C).

The prepared MAC adsorbents were tested for benzene, toluene, 0-, m-, p-xylene, methanol, ethanol, iso-propanol, and MEK. The modified content of all MACs was 5wt% with respect to AC. The specific surface areas and amounts of VOC adsorbed of MACs prepared in this study are shown in Table 1. The amounts of VOC adsorbed on 5wt%-MAC with acids and alkali show a similar tendency. However, the amount of VOC adsorbed on 5wt%-PA/AC was relatively large in spite of the decrease of specific surface area excepting in case of o-xylene, m-xylene, and MEK. This suggests that the adsorption of relatively large molecules such as 0-xylene, m-xylene, and MEK was suppressed, while that of small molecules was enhanced. It can be therefore speculated that the phosphoric acid narrowed the micropores but changed the chemical nature of surface to adsorb the organic materials strongly.
