Abstract

Abstract Improved process for the sulfatation of the hydroxy group of a beta -hydroxy-ethylsulfonyl group present in compounds selected from the dyestuff class which comprises carrying out the reaction in a machine operating with a kneading action and effect and with the use of only 1 to 5 times the equimolar amount of a concentrated sulfuric acid, of oleum or sulfur dioxide itself. The beta -sulfatoethylsulfonyl group containing dyestuffs, thus prepared have a high purity and are obtained in a high yield and esterification rate. Above all, the novel process is distinguished by a highly reduced salt and acid content of the waste water.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 121 words
In a process for the preparation of a compound of the formula F--SO.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --OSO.sub.3 H).sub.n in which F is the radical of an organic dyestuff molecule and n is the number 1, 2, 3 or 4, by esterification of a compound of the formula F--SO.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --OH).sub.n or a salt thereof in which F and n have the above meanings, by a sulfuric acid or sulfur trioxide agent, the improvement which comprises carrying out the reaction in a machine operating with a kneading action and with 1 to 5 times the equimolar amount, calculated on one mol of SO 3 , of 92 to 100% strength sulfuric acid or sulfuric acid containing sulfur trioxide or sulfur trioxide itself.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 121 words
In a process for the preparation of a compound of the formula F--SO.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --OSO.sub.3 H).sub.n in which F is the radical of an organic dyestuff molecule and n is the number 1, 2, 3 or 4, by esterification of a compound of the formula F--SO.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --OH).sub.n or a salt thereof in which F and n have the above meanings, by a sulfuric acid or sulfur trioxide agent, the improvement which comprises carrying out the reaction in a machine operating with a kneading action and with 1 to 5 times the equimolar amount, calculated on one mol of SO 3 , of 92 to 100% strength sulfuric acid or sulfuric acid containing sulfur trioxide or sulfur trioxide itself.
