Additional Information for Sulfanilic Acid
Sulfanilic acid, also known as 4-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, is a white crystalline solid that is commonly used in various industries. It is an aromatic compound with the chemical formula C6H7NO3S.
Sulfanilic acid is primarily used in the production of dyes, particularly azo dyes. It acts as a diazo component in the synthesis of these dyes, which are widely used in textiles, printing inks, and food coloring.
In addition to its role in dye production, sulfanilic acid is also used in the pharmaceutical industry as an intermediate in the synthesis of various drugs. It is a precursor for the production of certain antibiotics, such as sulfamethoxazole, which is used to treat bacterial infections.
Furthermore, sulfanilic acid has applications in analytical chemistry. It is commonly used as a reagent for the determination of nitrite ions in water samples. The reaction between sulfanilic acid and nitrite ions produces a diazonium salt, which can be further coupled with a coupling agent to form a colored azo dye. The intensity of the color can be measured spectrophotometrically, allowing for the quantification of nitrite concentration.
Overall, sulfanilic acid is a versatile compound with various industrial applications, particularly in the production of dyes and pharmaceuticals, as well as in analytical chemistry.
