| production method | in the mixture of 110g(1.0mol) hydroquinone and 206g(2.02mol) acetic anhydride, add 1 drop of concentrated sulfuric acid, stir, react quickly and exothermic, hydroquinone dissolves and reacts into a clear solution. Pour it into 800g of crushed ice, filter, wash with water, and dry to obtain 186-190g finished product with a yield of 96-98%. |
