Patent number: 4867916Abstract: Phenol sulphonate esters can be made in a known process by reacting an alkali metal phenol sulphonate salt with an acyl halide in a hydrocarbon solvent at elevated temperatures, but the use of anhydrous materials were strongly advocated because any residual water hydrolyses the acyl chloride in a competitive reaction. However, it becomes particularly difficult and expensive to dehydrate phenol sulphonate salts below about 2% w/w water on a commercial scale and the product obtained by reaction from such partly dehydrated salts can be comparatively impure or reduced in yield. Consequently, changes to the process such as omitting the solvent or using a different acylating agent have been proposed, but these alternatives introduce their own respective manufacturing problems such as entrainment of viscous acyl chloride and anhydride in the product or introduction of a cumbersome and hence expensive recovery process involving an extra distillation step amongst others.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 1987Date of Patent: September 19, 1989Assignee: Interox Chemicals LimitedInventors: William R. Sanderson, John P. Sankey
