Reaction Steps

2-Aminoterephthalic acid dimethyl ester (5 g, 23.9 mmol) were dissolved in 40 ml of water and 6 ml of conc. hydrochloric acid. At 0° C., sodium nitrite (1.65 g, 23.9 mmol) in 5 ml of water were added dropwise at below 10° C. After 30 min at room temp., sodium sulfite (11.02 g, 87.42 mmol) in 40 ml of water were added. After stirring for 1 h, 10 ml of conc. hydrochloric acid were added, and the mixture was left to stand overnight. It was then heated at 80° C. for 24 h, cooled and adjusted to pH 5.5 with sodium hydroxide solution. The precipitate was filtered off with suction and dried.
