  • Patent number: 10745348
    Abstract: A process for preparing diaryl sulfones, such as 4,4?-dichlorodiphenylsulfone is disclosed. The process comprises contacting an aryl compound with sulfur trioxide to provide a benzene sulfonic acid. The benzene sulfonic acid is coupled to additional aryl compound in the presence of a catalyst. During the coupling step, the additional aryl compound is continuously added while water is removed.
