With phthalic anhydride

It is extensively used in the preparation of dyestuffs. Combines with diazonium salts to form oxyazo-colouring matters. Gives rise to fluorescein dyes on fusion with phthalic anhydride. Used for production of plasticizers, resins, adhesives.

A group of aminoxanthenes, ie, pyra2oloxanthenes, is used as color formers ia pressure or heat-sensitive imaging papers (43). These compounds are colorless, but, upon contact with acidic electron-accepting material, are converted to resonance forms that are lightly colored. An example is stmcture [58294-05-6] (35), which forms upon the condensation of A[,A/-diethyl-y -aminophenol with phthalic anhydride, followed by addition of 6-hydroxyinda2ole ia 80% sulfuric acid (44). 

Phthalic anhydride and diethyl phthalate are easily converted with hydrazine into 4-hydroxyphthalazin-l(2/f)-one. Its substituted derivatives have been prepared using substituted hydrazines, substituted phthalic anhydrides, or diesters or disodium salts of substituted phthalic acids (Scheme 81). However, condensation of phenylhydrazine with phthalic anhydride gives only a small amount of the corresponding phthalazine, the main product being 2-anilinophthalimide. This can be rearranged in the presence of base into the phthalazine derivative. For the preparation of 2,3-disubstituted derivatives, 1,2-disub-stituted hydrazines are reacted with the appropriate phthalic anhydrides or phthaloyl chlorides. Derivatives of 4-amino- or 4-hydrazino-phthalazin-l(2iT)-one have been prepared either from the corresponding monothiophthalimide and 3-aminoisoindolin-3-one (1S4) or from ethyl 2-cyanobenzoate (155) and hydrazine hydrate (Scheme 82). Similarly,...

Hexahydrophthalic anhydride (Figure 26.10 II) (Mol. Wt. 154) has a melting point of 35-36°C and is soluble in the epoxy resin at room temperature. When 0.5% of a catalyst such as benzyldimethylamine is used the curing times are of the same order as with phthalic anhydride. About 80 phr are required. In addition... 

N-Phthalyl-L-phenylalanine has been prepared by the fusion of L-alanine with phthalic anhydride. 

Condensation of an appropriately substituted phenylacetic acid with phthalic anhydride in the presence of sodium acetate leads to aldol-like reaction of the methylene group on the acid with the carbonyl on the anhydride. Dehydration followed by decarboxylation of the intermediate affords the methylenephthal-ides (12). Treatment of the phthalides with base affords directly the indandiones, probably via an intermediate formally derived from the keto-acid anion (13). The first agent of this class to be introduced was phenindandione (14) this was followed by anisindandione (1S) and chlorindandione (16). ... 

An isoindol1 none moiety forms part of the aromatic moiety of yet another antiinflammatory propionic acid derivative. Carboxylation of the anion from -nitro-ethylbenzene (45) leads directly to the propionic acid (46). Reduction of the nitro group followed by condensation of the resulting aniline (47) with phthalic anhydride affords the corresponding phthalimide (48). Treatment of that intermediate with zinc in acetic acid interestingly results in reduction of only one of the carbonyl groups to afford the isoindolone. There is thus obtained indoprofen (49). ... 

Betulol is a sesquiterpene alcohol of the formula CjjH O, found in oil of birch buds. It can be isolated as a hydrogen phthalate, by warming a solution of betulol in benzene, with phthalic anhydride. It has, according to Soden and Elze, the following characters —... 

If glycerol is reacted with phthalic anhydride three ester links can be made from each glycerol unit. Continued reaction will eventually cause the molecules to link up in a three-dimensional network in which, theoretically at least, the whole polymer mass becomes one giant molecule.

Anthraquinone is widely use in the manufacture of a range of dyes. Two possible routes for manufacturing anthraquinone are (1) from the reaction of 1,4-naphthoquinone with butadiene and (2) reaction of benzene with phthalic anhydride. Describe mechanisms for both these reactions and identify likely reaction conditions and any other reagents required. Compare the atom economy of the two routes. Identify three factors for each route that may influence the commercial viability. 

Chemoenzymatic synthesis of alkyds (oil-based polyester resins) was demonstrated. PPL-catalyzed transesterification of triglycerides with an excess of 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol mainly produced 2-monoglycerides, followed by thermal polymerization with phthalic anhydride to give the alkyd resins with molecular weight of several thousands. The reaction of the enzymatically obtained alcoholysis product with toluene diisocyanate produced the alkyd-urethane. 

In the preparation of the polyester, you will react ethylene glycol, a diol, with phthalic anhydride. In this activity, phthalic anhydride will react similarly to the way phthalic acid (1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid) reacts, resulting in the formation of a polyester. Phthalic acid and ethylene glycol are the A and B units of the A-B polymer phthalic anhydride + ethylene glycol —> polyester. 

The keto acids (66) having a tertiary amino group at 4-position are successfully prepared by the reaction of 3-ferf-aminophenols (69) with phthalic anhydride in organic solvent such as benzene, toluene, or chlorobenzene at elevated temperature, though each keto acid has its own... 

On the other hand, the reaction of 3-,sec-aminophenols (71) with phthalic anhydride does not give the corresponding keto acids (72). The keto acids (72) having a secondary amino group at 4-position are prepared by the reaction of 3-sec-aminophenols (71) with phthalimide at 150-220°C in the presence of boric acid, followed by hydrolysis of the intermediate carboxamide with aqueous sodium hydroxide (Eq. 3). 

Dehydration of P-nitro alcohols provides an important method for the preparation of nitroalkenes. Because lower nitroalkenes such as nitroethylene, 1-nitro-1-propene, and 2-nitro-l-propene tend to polymerize, they must be prepared carefully and used immediately after preparation. Dehydration with phthalic anhydride is the most reliable method for such lower nitroalkenes.42,43 Such lower nitroalkenes have been used as important reagents for Michael acceptors or dienophiles in the Diels-Alder reaction, which will be...
