Abstract

1,148,248. Anhydrous alkali metal hydrosulphite. MITSUBISHI EDOGAWAKAGAKU K.K. 11 May, 1967 [16 May, 1966 (2); 17 Nov., 1966], No. 21985/67. Heading C1A. Anhydrous alkali metal hydrosulphite is prepared by a method which comprises adding an aqueous or aqueous alcoholic solution of an alkali metal hydroxide, carbonate or sulphite and sulphur dioxide dissolved in alcoholic solution to an alcohol-water solution or suspension of an alkali metal formate and maintaining the temperature of the latter solution or suspension between 50‹ and 90‹ C. until the addition is complete and then maintaining the temperature of the resulting solution between 60‹ and 90‹ C. until the reaction is substantially complete. The sulphur dioxide may be dissolved in methanol, ethanol or propanol or a mixture thereof and may contain formic ester or esters. The temperature is preferably maintained throughout the reaction from 70‹ to 88‹ C. and the pressure is preferably not more than 10 kg./cm.<SP>2</SP>. The reaction time is preferably from 30 minutes to 3 hours. Examples are given using sodium hydroxide as the alkali metal compound and sodium formate as the alkali metal formate. Any volatile low boiling point compounds such as formic acid ester which are boiled off from the reaction solution are trapped by being cooled below their boiling points and are subsequently returned to the reaction solution.
