Introduction | benzenesulfonic acid is a colorless needle-like or leaf-like crystal, highly soluble in water and ethanol, insoluble in ether and carbon disulfide, slightly soluble in benzene. Strong acid, acid and sulfuric acid, but no oxidation, dissociation constant K = 0.2(25 degrees C). Sulfonic acid group of benzene sulfonic acid can be substituted by a variety of groups, and sodium hydroxide alkali fusion to generate phenol sodium; Reaction with sodium cyanide to generate benzonitrile; Reaction with bromine to generate bromobenzene; Reaction with nitric acid to generate nitrobenzene; co-heating with water to remove sulfonic acid groups. Benzenesulfonic acid can be obtained by sulfonation of benzene in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid. It is used to prepare phenol and resorcinol, and also used as a catalyst in esterification and dehydration reactions. |
Application | benzene sulfonic acid is commonly used as catalyst and water-absorbing agent in esterification reaction and dehydration reaction, and its advantage is that it is weaker than sulfuric acid in oxidation, can reduce side effects. It is mainly used for the alkali fusion of phenol, also used for the preparation of resorcinol, etc., in the esterification and dehydration reaction is often used as a catalyst. benzenesulfonic acid used in oilfield water injection can relieve the formation blockage and improve the formation permeability. As the acid of acidizing water injection wells, benzenesulfonic acid is characterized by slow reaction with carbonate, and the higher the concentration, the slower the reaction rate, and the far-reaching acidizing formation, compared with hydrochloric acid, it (and mixed aryl sulfonic acid) has a long period of validity, small corrosion, safe use. Benzenesulfonic acid is also used as a catalyst for esterification and dehydration reactions and as a curing agent for the foundry industry. |
production method | benzene is used as raw material, which is obtained by sulfonation of sulfuric acid. Add 93% sulfuric acid 2400L into the sulfonated Pan, feed benzene to the evaporator at a flow rate of 2500-3000L/h, and pass through evaporation and superheating to superheated benzene vapor with a temperature above 150 ℃, the reaction was carried out in a sulfuric acid layer by means of a bubbler at a temperature of about 170 ° C. And the free acid was finally controlled at 4-5%. After about 10 hours, the reaction is completed, the unreacted benzene vapor and the generated water vapor are condensed and separated, and the acidic benzene is neutralized by liquid alkali, and the salt is dehydrated and recycled. Benzene-containing benzenesulfonic acid was used to remove residual benzene in a vacuum benzene remover. The sulfonation yield was 96.5%. Benzene sulfonic acid with sodium sulfite or sodium hydroxide neutralization, benzene sulfonic acid sodium. The neutralization yield was 99%. Raw material consumption quota: benzene 600kg/t, fuming sulfuric acid 750kg/t. |
