Sulfonic acids formation

Sulfuric acid can be used to sulfonate aromatic compounds directly. This process produces small quantities of the sulfone by-product, however, the rate of sulfonic acid formation decreases with the increasing water concentration, which occurs as a result of the consumption of the sulfuric acid and the formation of water as the reaction proceeds. The reaction stops when H2SO4 reaches a concentration at which the rates of sulfonation and desulfonation are equal, that is, equilibrium has been attained. This concentration is dependent on the specific compounds undergoing reaction and is sometimes referred to as the pi (n) factor. 

Perfluorinated acid fluorides containing heteratoms are also accessible by ECF. Long-chain perfluorinated acid fluorides produced by ECF containing nitrogen (10—12), oxygen (13), and sulfur (14,15) have been reported. The fluorinated mixed sulfonic acid—carboxyflc acid precursors are also known. ECF of hydrocarbon sultones has led to formation of FS02(CF2) C0F, where n = 2,3 (16). 

Acid mixtures containing nitric acid and a strong acid, eg, sulfuric acid, perchloric acid, selenic acid, hydrofluoric acid, boron trifluoride, or an ion-exchange resin containing sulfonic acid groups, can be used as the nitrating feedstock for ionic nitrations. These strong acids are catalysts that result in the formation of nitronium ions, NO" 2- Sulfuric acid is almost always used industrially since it is both effective and relatively inexpensive. 

The typical acid catalysts used for novolak resins are sulfuric acid, sulfonic acid, oxaUc acid, or occasionally phosphoric acid. Hydrochloric acid, although once widely used, has been abandoned because of the possible formation of toxic chloromethyl ether by-products. The type of acid catalyst used and reaction conditions affect resin stmcture and properties. For example, oxaUc acid, used for resins chosen for electrical appHcations, decomposes into volatile by-products at elevated processing temperatures. OxaUc acid-cataly2ed novolaks contain small amounts (1—2% of the original formaldehyde) of ben2odioxanes formed by the cycli2ation and dehydration of the ben2yl alcohol hemiformal intermediates.

Diazophenols, ie, o-hydroxyaryldiazonium salts, couple to 1-naphthol in weaMy basic solution primarily in the para position, but as the hydroxyl ion concentration is increased, formation of the ortho isomer is favored and is frequentiy the sole product. Pyridine and pyridine derivatives, urea, and acetate, etc, used as buffers can also catalyze azo coupling reactions (28). l-amino-2-naphthol-4-sulfonic acid [116-63-2] (1,2,4-acid) and 1-naphthol yield the important Eriochrome Black A [3564-14-5] (18a, R = H) (Cl Mordant Black 3 Cl 14640) which is reportedly (20) a mixture of ortho and para isomers.

ButylatedPhenols and Cresols. Butylated phenols and cresols, used primarily as oxidation inhibitors and chain terrninators, are manufactured by direct alkylation of the phenol using a wide variety of conditions and acid catalysts, including sulfuric acid, -toluenesulfonic acid, and sulfonic acid ion-exchange resins (110,111). By use of a small amount of catalyst and short residence times, the first-formed, ortho-alkylated products can be made to predominate. Eor the preparation of the 2,6-substituted products, aluminum phenoxides generated in situ from the phenol being alkylated are used as catalyst. Reaction conditions are controlled to minimise formation of the thermodynamically favored 4-substituted products (see Alkylphenols). The most commonly used is -/ fZ-butylphenol [98-54-4] for manufacture of phenoHc resins. The tert-huty group leaves only two rather than three active sites for condensation with formaldehyde and thus modifies the characteristics of the resin. 

In laboratory preparations, sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid have classically been used as esterification catalysts. However, formation of alkyl chlorides or dehydration, isomerization, or polymerization side reactions may result. Sulfonic acids, such as benzenesulfonic acid, toluenesulfonic acid, or methanesulfonic acid, are widely used in plant operations because of their less corrosive nature. Phosphoric acid is sometimes employed, but it leads to rather slow reactions. Soluble or supported metal salts minimize side reactions but usually require higher temperatures than strong acids.

Compound (253) is formed from benzaldehyde and methylhydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid in 35% yield. With ethyl-substituted chloramine or hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid yields do not exceed 10%, which is assumed to be due to steric hindrance and is foreseeable for both carbonyl addition and O —N bond formation.

In contrast to phosphorus esters, sulfur esters are usually cleaved at the carbon-oxygen bond with carbon-fluorine bond formation Cleavage of esteri nf methanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesidfonic acid, and especially trifluoromethane-sulfonic acid (tnflic acid) by fluoride ion is the most widely used method for the conversion of hydroxy compounds to fluoro derivatives Potassium fluoride, triethylamine trihydrofluoride, and tetrabutylammonium fluoride are common sources of the fluoride ion For the cleavage of a variety of alkyl mesylates and tosylates with potassium fluoride, polyethylene glycol 400 is a solvent of choice, the yields are limited by solvolysis of the leaving group by the solvent, but this phenomenon is controlled by bulky substituents, either in the sulfonic acid part or in the alcohol part of the ester [42] (equation 29)... 

Reactions of vinylogous amides with methanesulfonyl chloride also led to the formation of six-membered rings. Here the initial attack on oxygen produces a zwitterionic intermediate which can collapse to an enol sulfonic acid lactone (383,469). 

In further modifications of these norprogestins, reaction of norethindrone with acetic anhydride in the presence of p-toluene-sulfonic acid, followed by hydrolysis of the first-formed enol acetate, affords norethindrone acetate (41). This in turn affords, on reaction with excess cyclopentanol in the presence of phosphorus pentoxide, the 3-cyclopentyl enol ether (42) the progestational component of Riglovic . Reduction of norethindrone affords the 3,17-diol. The 33-hydroxy compound is the desired product since reactions at 3 do not show nearly the stereoselectivity of those at 17 by virtue of the relative lack of stereo-directing proximate substituents, the formation of the desired isomer is engendered by use of a bulky reducing agent, lithium aluminum-tri-t-butoxide. Acetylation of the 33,173-diol iffords ethynodiol diacetate, one of the most potent oral proves tins (44). ... 

After having been washed with 50 cc of water the benzene layer is dried over potassium carbonate, filtered, allowed to stand over 10 g of alumina for about VA hours for partial decolorization, filtered again and concentrated under reduced pressure. The oily base which remains as a residue is directly converted into the tartrate. A solution cooled to 0°C, of 6.50 g of the free base in 100 cc of acetic acid ethyl ester is thoroughly shaken and poured into an ice cold solution of 2.66 g of tartaric acid in 410 cc of acetic acid ethyl ester. The precipitated, analytically pure, tartrate of 3-methylsulfinyl-10-[2 -N-methyl-piperidyl-2")-ethyl-1 ]-phenothiazine melts at 115° to 120°C (foam formation) and sinters above B0°C. The base Is reacted with benzene sulfonic acid in a suitable solvent to give the besylate. 

Although benzene-sulfonic acid, CnITsSChH, is a strong acid in aqueous solution, it is not completely dissociated in formic acid solution. In a 0.1-molal solution the degree of dissociation was estimated at 60 per cent.2 This is comparable with the dissociation of HIOs in aqueous solution and is compatible with J = 0.14 electron-volt for the formation of (HCOOH2)+. Using this value the level has been included in Fig. 65. 

In addition to alkyl-substituted derivatives, soluble PPPs 6 are also known today containing alkoxy groups as well as ionic side groups (carboxy and sulfonic acid functions) [18]. Schliiter et al. recently described the generation of soluble PPPs decorated with densely packed stcrically demanding dendrons on the formation of cylindrically shaped dendrimers, so-called cylinder dendrimers ] 19]. 

The C2-symmetric epoxide 23 (Scheme 7) reacts smoothly with carbon nucleophiles. For example, treatment of 23 with lithium dimethylcuprate proceeds with inversion of configuration, resulting in the formation of alcohol 28. An important consequence of the C2 symmetry of 23 is that the attack of the organometallic reagent upon either one of the two epoxide carbons produces the same product. After simultaneous hydrogenolysis of the two benzyl ethers in 28, protection of the 1,2-diol as an acetonide ring can be easily achieved by the use of 2,2-dimethoxypropane and camphor-sulfonic acid (CSA). It is necessary to briefly expose the crude product from the latter reaction to methanol and CSA so that the mixed acyclic ketal can be cleaved (see 29—>30). Oxidation of alcohol 30 with pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) provides alde-... 

Treatment of l-ethylideneamino-3-methylindole 95 with p-toluene sulfonic acid in boiling benzene gave l,2-dihydro[l,2,4]triazino[l,6-a]indole 96 (75CPB2891). The reaction was said to be due to an initial formation of a Diels-Alder-type adduct followed by the liberation of 3-methylindole. Compound % was oxidized either on exposure to air or by the action of chloranil to give 97 (Scheme 24). 

N-Aminobenzoxazolin-2-one (4), which was readily prepared by animation of benzoxazolin-2-one with hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid, is also a useful nitrene precursor (Scheme 2.2). Oxidation of 4 with lead(iv) acetate in the presence of a conjugated diene resulted in exclusive 1,2-addition of nitrene 5, to yield vinylazir-idine (6) in 71 % yield [6]. The formation of vinylaziridines through 1,2-additions of methoxycarbonylnitrene (2) or amino nitrene 5 contrasts with the claimed 1,4-ad-dition of nitrene itself to butadiene [7]. Since the reaction proceeded stereospecif-ically even at high dilution, the nitrene 5 appears to be generated in a resonance-stabilized singlet state, which is probably the ground state [8].
