Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 21499013, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 3-amino-4-phenylthio-5-sulphamyl-benzoic acid (4.05 g) in water (100 ml) was adjusted to pH 7.5 by addition of 1N lithium hydroxide. Benzyl bromide (2.2 g) was added and, under stirring, the pH was kept at 7.5 by automatic titration with lithium hydroxide. After the base comsumption had become negligible, the pH was adjusted to 2.5 by addition of dilute hydrochloric acid. The precipitated 3-benzylamino-4-phenylthio-5-sulphamyl-benzoic acid was collected and recrystallized from ethanol, whereafter the compound was obtained with a melting point of 224°-225°C.
