Abstract:
A process for producing an acyloxybenzenesulfonic acid or a salt thereof by sulfonating an acyloxybenzene (1) with the use of at least one additive selected from among carboxylic acids or esters (2), alkyl phosphates (3), polyphosphoric acids (4), amide and like compounds (6), carbonic ester compounds (7), and hydroxylic compounds (8). The process enables acyloxybenzenesulfonic acids with good hues to be produced industrially in high yields at a high selectivity and a low cost as compared with the conventional processes.

Abstract:
A softening finish composition which contains a softening base having an excellent softening effect and satisfactory biodegradability. The composition comprises: (A) a nonionic compound which has at least one C5-36 alkyl or alkenyl group and an amide bond but contains no dissociative groups giving amino or carboxyl; and (B) at least one member selected among (B- alpha ) cationic or ampholytic surfactants having one C5-36 alkyl or alkenyl group or one optionally substituted aryl group and (B- beta ) amino compounds having at least one C5-36 alkyl or alkenyl group and salts of the compounds.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To industrially produce the subject compound useful as a bleaching activator in high selectivity and yield by sulfonating an acyloxybenzenie in the coexistence of a specific carboxylic acid ester with a sulfonating agent. SOLUTION: (A) An acyloxybenzene of formula I [R is a 1-35C straight-chain or branched chain alkyl or alkenyl which may be substituted with a halogen or an ester, an ether, etc., may be inserted thereinto; R is a 1-20C straight-chain or branched chain alkyl, methoxy or ethoxy; (n) is an integer of 0-2] is sulfonated in the coexistence of (B) a carboxylic acid ester of formula II [R is a 1-34C straight-chain or branched chain alkyl or alkenyl which may be substituted with a halogen or an ester, an ester, etc., may be inserted thereinto; R is a 1-4C straight-chain or branched chain lower alkyl, etc.] with a sulfonating agent and, as necessary, the resultant product is neutralized with an alkaline agent to afford (C) an α-sulfoacyloxybenzenesulfonic acid of formula III [R is same as H and R ; M is H, an alkali(ne earth) metal, etc.] or its salt.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To inexpensively obtain an acyloxybenzoic acid useful as an activator for an oxidative bleaching agent in high selectivity and high yield by reaction of a hydroxybenzoic acid with an acylating agent in the presence of a carboxylic acid. CONSTITUTION: The reaction of a compound of formula I (M , M are each H, an alkali metal, ammonium or the like; (m) is 1-3) or a salt thereof or their mixture with an acylating agent is carried out in the presence of a carboxylic acid of formula II (R is a 1-21C alkyl, alkenyl) (e.g. lauric acid) at 60-120 deg.C to give the objective acyloxybenzoic acid of formula III [(h) is 1-3; (i) is m∼h] or a salt thereof or their mixture. The compound of formula II is used in an amount of 0.05-20 pts.wt. per 1 pt.wt. of the compound of formula I and the coexistence of the compound of formula II gives the objective compound of formula III with reduced content of by-products.
