Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 170 words
A method of preparing dibenzothiazolyl disulfide having a melting point of about 180° C. as determined with a capillary tube with a heating rate of about 1° C. per minute, in a yield of at least about 98 percent without the aid of a mineral acid where the byproducts are water and dimethylphenylcarbinol instead of inorganic salt byproducts, which method consists of oxidizing mercaptobenzothiazole in a solution of alcohol selected from at least one of methyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol at a temperature in the range of about 30° C. to about 80° C., but not above the boiling point of said alcohol solution, by reacting cumene hydroperoxide therewith; where said alcohol solution has an autogenous acid-base condition developed by the reaction system itself, where said alcohol solution comprises from 100 to about 80 weight percent of said alcohol and correspondingly up to about 20 weight percent water, and where the mole ratio of said cumene hydroperoxide to said mercaptobenzothiazole is in the range of about 0.3:1 to about 0.7:1.
