Toluidines, oxidation

At the end of the first forward scan, three oxidation products II, IV and azobenzene are formed. This results in the appearance of three reduction peaks during the first reverse (reduction) scan. Cyclic voltammograms obtained for the oxidation of ortho- and /neto-toluidines in 0.1 M and 2.0 M sulphuric acid are shown in Figure 13.1(a)-(d) and the voltammogram obtained for the oxidation of/ -toluidine in 0.1 M sulfuric acid is shown in Figure 13.1(e). The concentration of toluidines was 5 X lO M [80]. All the three toluidines oxidize in a single step and it involves a two-electron change in the aqueous medium. The oxidative voltammetric behaviour of o- and w-toluidines is very similar to that of...

In a variation of this method, isolation of the ben2hydrol derivative is not required. The methane base undergoes oxidative condensation in the presence of acid with the same or a different arylamine direcdy to the dye. New fuchsine [3248-91 -7] Cl Basic Violet 2 (16), is prepared by condensation of two moles of o-toluidine with formaldehyde in nitrobenzene in the presence of iron salts to give the corresponding substituted diphenylmethane base. This base is also not isolated, but undergoes an oxidative condensation with another mole of o-toluidine to produce the dye. 

Azines were the first of the synthetic dyes. Perkins oxidized a cmde mixture of aniline containing toluidines and obtained mauveine (7). 

Detection of Bromine Vapor. Bromine vapor in air can be monitored by using an oxidant monitor instmment that sounds an alarm when a certain level is reached. An oxidant monitor operates on an amperometric principle. The bromine oxidizes potassium iodide in solution, producing an electrical output by depolarizing one sensor electrode. Detector tubes, usefiil for determining the level of respiratory protection required, contain (9-toluidine that produces a yellow-orange stain when reacted with bromine. These tubes and sample pumps are available through safety supply companies (54). The usefiil concentration range is 0.2—30 ppm. 

Cl Acid Violet 43 [4430-18-6] (2) (Cl 60730) is one of the first acid dyes, invented in 1894. This dye exhibits good leveling and is available from leiicoquinizarin by reaction with -toluidine in the presence of boric acid, followed by oxidation and subsequent sulfonation (133). 

Benzisothiazoles are best prepared by oxidative cyclization of o-aminothiobenz-amides (see Section 4.17.9.1.1), reaction of o-toluidines with thionyl chloride (see Section 4.17.9.2.1) or by sulfuration of 2,1-benzisoxazoles (see Section 4.17.10.2). 1,2-Benzisothiazoles can also be prepared from o-disubstituted benzene compounds, cyclodehydration of o-mercaptobenzaldoximes or oxidative cyclization of p-mercaptobenzylamines (see Section 4.17.9.1.1) being the most convenient. Both series of benzo compounds are readily substituted at the 5- and 7-positions by electrophilic reagents.

First there is chlorination of nitrogen to yield reactive N-chloro derivatives, which oxidize iodide to iodine in the next step. Finally oxidation of the o-toluidine probably yields colored quinonoid toluidine derivatives. 

Peptides, for example, yield chloramine derivatives on exposure to chlorine gas these derivatives oxidize o-toluidine to a blue semiquinonoid dyestuff in the presence of acetic acid. 

The liquids used were 1 1 mixtures of EBA-HV and liquid methacrylate which also contained dihydroxyethyl-p-toluidine as the accelerator. Both mono- and di-methacrylates were used. The benzoyl peroxide initiator was included in the EBA zinc oxide/silanized (1 1) glass powder. These polymer cements set 5 to 10 minutes after mixing. Since there is a substantial amount of monomer in the liquid (50%) the contribution of the polymer to the strength of the cement must be considerable. Brauer Stansbury (1984b) suggested that the two matrices, the polymer matrix and the salt matrix, may be interpenetrating but separation of the two phases is likely. 

The next milestone in the development of organic synthesis was the preparation of the first synthetic dye, mauveine (aniline purple) by Perkin in 1856 Perkin, 1856, 1862). This is generally regarded as the first industrial organic synthesis. It is also a remarkable example of serendipity. Perkin s goal was the synthesis of the antimalarial drug quinine by oxidation of N-allyl toluidine (Fig. 2.4). 

As the anhydride of nitrous and perchloric acids, it is a very powerful oxidant. Pinene explodes sharply acetone and ethanol ignite, then explode ether evolves gas, then explodes after a few s delay. Small amounts of primary aromatic amines-aniline, toluidines, xylidines, mesidine-ignite on contact, while larger amounts exploded dangerously, probably owing to rapid formation of diazonium perchlorates. Urea ignites on stirring with the perchlorate, (probably for a similar reason). 

The effects of various metal oxides and salts which promote ignition of amine-red fuming nitric acid systems were examined. Among soluble catalysts, copperQ oxide, ammonium metavanadate, sodium metavanadate, iron(III) chloride (and potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) with o-toluidine) are most effective. Of the insoluble materials, copper(II) oxide, iron(III) oxide, vanadium(V) oxide, potassium chromate, potassium dichromate, potassium hexacyanoferrate(III) and sodium pentacyanonitrosylferrate(II) were effective.

Aminohydroxyanthraquinone derivatives are available from leucoquinizarin by heating with an appropriate arylamine and boric acid in aqueous ethanol, followed by oxidation. The use of p-toluidine and subsequent sulphonation gives Cl Acid Violet 43 (6.37 X = OH). 

The entire group of these compounds dates back to the very beginnings of organic dye chemistry. In 1858, E. Verguin in France oxidized a material which he named aniline but which was in actual fact a mixture of aniline, o-toluidine, and p-toluidine. He performed the reaction in nitrobenzene in the presence of tin(IV)chloride or iron(III)chloride and received bluish red fuchsin (120). The process has been industrially exploited since 1859. The central carbon atom is furnished by the CH3 group of p-toluidine, which is initially oxidized to its aldehyde.
