Route of Synthesis (ROS)
| Conditions | Yield |
| Stage #1: 4-sulfophthalic acid With sodium hydroxide In water at 180 – 200℃; for 2h; Stage #2: With hydrogenchloride In water pH=1; Cooling with ice; Experimental Procedure 4-hydroxyphthalic Acid Sodium hydroxide (251.9 g, 6.30 mol) was added in portions to 4-sulphophthalic acid (50percent in water, 258.4 g, 0.525 mol) in a steel vessel accompanied by stirring. After the addition of approx. one third NaOH the increasingly more viscous mixture was heated to 180° C. Once the addition had ended the mixture was stirred for a further 2 h at 200° C. During cooling, the residue was dissolved in water (1000 ml). Conc. hydrochloric acid (620 ml, pH=1) was added accompanied by ice cooling. The solution was extracted with ethyl acetate (5*400 ml). The combined organic phases were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated on the rotary evaporator. The slightly yellow solid was recrystallized from ethyl acetate. 68.64 g (0.377 mol; 72percent yield) of a white solid was obtained. 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz): δ=6.90-6.93 (m, 2H), 7.69 (dd, 1H; J=2.4 Hz, 6.6 Hz), 10.41 (br s, 1H), 12.87 (br s, 2H). 13C-NMR (DMSO-d6, 100 MHz): δ=114.2, 116.2, 120.7, 131.5, 137.3, 160.1, 167.4, 169.5. | 72% |
