Aromatic sulfonation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In organic chemistry, aromatic sulfonation is an organic reaction in which a hydrogen atom on an arene is replaced by a sulfonic acid (−SO2OH) functional group in an electrophilic aromatic substitution.[1] Aryl sulfonic acids are used as detergents, dye, and drugs.

Stoichiometry and mechanism

Sulfur trioxide is the active ingredient in many sulfonation reactions.

Typical conditions involve heating the aromatic compound with sulfuric acid:[2]

C6H6 + H2SO4 → C6H5SO3H + H2O

Sulfur trioxide or its protonated derivative is the actual electrophile in this electrophilic aromatic substitution.

To drive the equilibrium, dehydrating agents such as thionyl chloride can be added.

C6H6 + H2SO4 + SOCl2 → C6H5SO3H + SO2 + 2 HCl

Chlorosulfuric acid is also an effective agent:

C6H6 + HSO3Cl → C6H5SO3H + HCl

In contrast to aromatic nitration and most other electrophilic aromatic substitutions this reaction is reversible. Sulfonation takes place in concentrated acidic conditions and desulfonation is the mode of action in a dilute hot aqueous acid. The reaction is very useful in protecting the aromatic system because of this reversibility. Due to their electron withdrawing effects, sulfonate protecting groups can be used to prevent electrophilic aromatic substitution. They can also be installed as directing groups to affect the position where a substitution may take place.[3]

Specialized sulfonation methods

Many method have been developed for introducing sulfonate groups aside from direction sulfonation.

Piria reaction

A classic named reaction is the Piria reaction (Raffaele Piria, 1851) in which nitrobenzene is reacted with a metal bisulfite forming an aminosulfonic acid as a result of combined nitro group reduction and sulfonation.[4][5]

Tyrer sulfonation process

In the Tyrer sulfonation process (1917),[6] at some time of technological importance, benzene vapor is led through a vessel containing 90% sulfuric acid the temperature of which is increased from 100 to 180°C. Water and benzene are continuously removed in a condenser and the benzene layer fed back to the vessel. In this way an 80% yield is obtained.

Synthesis of sulfanilic acid from aniline and sulfuric acid.[7]

Applications

Aromatic sulfonic acids are intermediates in the preparation of dyes and many pharmaceuticals. Sulfonation of anilines lead to a large group of sulfa drugs.

Allura Red AC, a food coloring agent, is made by a multistep process that includes two sulfonations.

Sulfonation of polystyrene is used to make sodium polystyrene sulfonate, a common ion exchange resin for water softening.

Reactions of aryl sulfonic acids

As a functional group, aryl sulfonic acids undergo desulfonation when heated in water:

R−C6H4SO3H + H2O → R−C6H5 + H2SO4

When treated with strong base, benzenesulfonic acid derivatives convert to phenols.[8]

C6H5SO3H + 2 NaOH → C6H5OH + Na2SO+3 H2O
