Yellow Flake crystal. The relative density was 1.412. The melting point was 146-147 °c. Sweet taste. Flammable. Soluble in hot water, ethanol and ether. Sublimable. Frictional luminescence. It is decomposed into carbon dioxide and aniline during distillation.
The Phthalic anhydride with ammonia and liquid alkali amidation to produce O-formylaminobenzoic acid sodium, and then sodium hypochlorite solution hydrolysis, rearrangement, O-aminobenzoic acid sodium, and finally acidified with hydrochloric acid to get the finished product.
It is used in the manufacture of azo dyes, Anthraquinone Dyes, indigo dyes, telden drugs and fragrances, etc. Also as a reagent, detection of cadmium, cobalt, Mercury, magnesium, nickel, lead, zinc and cerium.
