Title: Manufacture of Amidosulphonic Acids of Pnenyl-1 : 2-Naphthimidazole or Homologues or Derivatives thereof.
Filed: 1905-10-13
Granted: 1906-06-28
Abstract: 20,780. Abel, C. D., [Akt.-Ges. f³r Anilin- Fabrikation]. Oct. 13. Aminophenyl-1 : 2-naphthimidazole sulphonic acids and their homologues or derivatives are produced by first combining a diazo compound such as pnitraniline, or acetyl-p-phenylenediamine, with a naphthylamine sulphonic acid, or a homologue or derivative thereof, with which diazo bodies combine in the ortho position to the amino group. The dye-stuffs so obtained are then combined with a nitro- or amino-benzaldehyde, or a homologue or derivative thereof. The products, which appear to be triazines, are reduced by suitable means, such as iron and acetic acid, the residue of the diazo body being split off and a naphthimidazole formed. Suitable initial materials are 1 :5:7-, 2 : 5 : 7 2 : 6 : 8-naphthylamine disulphonic acids, m- and p-nitro- and amino-benzaldehyde, 3-nitro-4- dimethylamino -1 - benzaldehyde-6-sulphonic acid, p-nitraniline sulphonic acid (NO2 : NH2 : SO9H= 4 :1 :2), dialkyl-p-phenylenediamine, and the ptolylsulphonic derivative of p-phenylenediamino (CH3ÀC6H4ÀSO2ÀNHÀC6H4ÀNH2).
