The complete molecule of the title compound, C(10)H(10)O(4)S(2), is generated by a crystallographic inversion centre. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into a one-dimensional chain by inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

oxidation of some benzoins to benziles is reported by using p-toluenesulfonic acid as aselective oxidation catalyst under solvent-free condition in high yield. the adjacent carbonylgroup is necessary for the oxidation of hydroxyl group in these compounds. the reaction iscarried out in a sand-bath at 100 °c with minimum by-products.

the synthesis and properties of new monoazo dyes derived from the diazonium salts of paminobenzoic acid, 3-trifluoromethyl aniline , 4-trifluoromethyl aniline are considered .theprepared compounds were characterized by uv-visible , ft-ir and h nmr spectroscopictechniques . the effect of varying solvent upon the absorption ability of p-amino benzoic acidcoupled with 4,4 —diethyl aniline , anilin...

a simple, efficient and clean procedure has been developed for the cleavage of imines c=n bond. deprotection of imines to their parent carbonyl and amine compounds was achieved using p-toluenesulfonic acid in the solid state condition at 25-45 ˚c. the salient features of this methodology are shorter reaction times, cheap processing, high yields of product and easy availability of the catalyst. ...

the interaction of p-sulphonatocalix [6] arene towards l-arginine and l-lysine has been studied inacidic aqueous solution (p1-1 2) using uv-vis spectrophotometric titration technique. the psulphonatocalix[6] arene was found to be able to form 1:1 complexe with amino acids in water.the values of the association constant were determined at different temperatures to evaluate thethermodynamic funct...

The effect of three-dimensional confinement on the size and morphology of a vesicular surfactant mesophase obtained by mixing micellar solutions of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid has been studied using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). The confined spaces were generated by the random close packing of polystyrene beads of radius Rb=1.5, 0.25, and 0.1 microm, ...
