overview | 2-naphthylamine-1, 5-disulfonic acid is an important intermediate product for the manufacture of dyes, especially reactive dyes. The preparation method is to sulfonate 2-naphthylamine-1-sulfonic acid (Tobias acid), for example, in fuming sulfuric acid ("Olem")(SO3 content 15-30% (weight)) at room temperature. 2-naphthylamine -1, 5-disulfonic acid can be precipitated from the resulting reaction mixture by dilution. The disadvantage of this free acid precipitation method is that 2-naphthylamine -1, 5-disulfonic acid separated in the form of free acid is contaminated by decomposition products such as 2-naphthylamine and 2-naphthylamine -5-sulfonic acid and precipitated in a crystalline shape, which contains a considerable amount (15-20% (weight)) of sulfuric acid. This sulfuric acid content in the separated 2-naphthylamine -1, 5-disulfonic acid can be reduced by washing with water or highly diluted sulfuric acid washing, but due to the high solubility of 2-naphthylamine -1, 5-disulfonic acid in water and dilute sulfuric acid, it is only at the expense of a large yield loss. It has been found that difficulties arising from the precipitation of 2-naphthylamine -1, 5-disulfonic acid in the form of free acids can be avoided by diluting the reaction mixture under clearly defined conditions. |
