| production method | 1. Obtained from the condensation of thymol with O-sulphobenzoic anhydride. 2. Mixing benzenesulfonic anhydride, thymol and anhydrous zinc chloride, heating, diluting with water, and then performing steam distillation to remove unreacted thymol, and obtaining Thymol blue after cooling. 3. The O-sulfonyl benzoyl anhydride, thymol, anhydrous zinc chloride mixed, heated to 105~110 ℃ with stirring, reaction: After the reaction is diluted with water and heated, the unreacted thymol was distilled off, the crystals were cooled and filtered. The crystals were washed with a small amount of ethanol, further removed of thymol, and then dried in air. |
