When the reto a solution of 10 parts of potassium hydroxide in action is complete, it is possible to recover the parts by volume of 15% sodium hypochlorite solution, filtering and washing the resulting black precipitate.
The reaction mixture is held at 85 until oxidation is complete, filtered, concentrated to 80 parts by volume, and salted with 20 parts of potassium chloride. After thorough stirring and cooling. the product is filtered. A good yield of the tetrasulfuric acid ester of the dichloro leuco indanthrone is obtained.
Example 2 Barium ferrate is prepared by adding a solution of 13.5 parts of ferric chloride in 20 parts of water to a solution of 20 parts of potassium hydroxide in 50 parts of water. To the resulting ferric hydroxide precipitate is added 100 parts by volume of 15% sodium hypochlorite solution, giving a violet solution, which is heated briefly at 80 C. To this is added a solution of 13 parts of barium chloride in 50 parts of water. The purple precipitate which forms immediately is filtered and washed.
The barium ferrate, prepared as described, is added to a batch of 2-amino-3-chloro-anthrahydroquinone-disulfurio ester, prepared as described in Example 1. The oxidation is carried out at 60 C. There is then added 5 parts of potassium chloride. The mixture is filtered, concentrated to 50 parts by volume, salted at 60 C. with 7 parts of potassium chloride and 20 parts of methanol, and cooled thoroughly. On filtration, there is obtained a good yield of the yelloworange potassium salt of the leuco dichloro indanthrone tetrasulfuric ester.
Example 3 An aqueous solution of 12.5 parts of nickel chloride and 10 parts of sodium carbonate is oxidized by treatment with 100 parts by volume of 10% sodium hypochlorite solution. The resulting nickel dioxide is added to a batch of 2- amino-3-chloroanthrahydroquinone disulfuric ester prepared as described in Example 1. Oxidation is completed at 85 C. The reaction mixture is filtered, concentrated to 50 parts by volume, and salted with parts of potassium chloride followed by 12 parts of methanol. After thorough stirring, filtration gives a good yield of the light orange potassium salt of the leuco dichloro indanthrone tetrasulfuric ester.
Example 4 A mixture of 20.0 parts of the potassium salt of 2-acetylamino-3-bromo anthrahydroquinone- 9,10-disulfuric acid ester, 14 parts sodium hydroxide, and 120 parts of water is stirred at 85 Example 5 An aqueous solution containing the ferrate ion is prepared by adding a solution of 27 parts of ferric chloride in 100 parts of water to a solution of 40 parts of potassium hydroxide in 50 parts of water. To the resulting ferric hydroxide precipitate is added at 70, 100 parts by volume of 15% sodium hypochlorite solution. After stirring and heating at the mixture is filtered and a violet solution is obtained.
This violet solution, containing the ferrate ion, is added to a batch of 2-amino-3-chloro-anthrahydroquinone-disulfuric ester prepared as described in Example 1. After carrying out the oxidation at 60, the excess ferrate is removed by precipitation with barium chloride. The mixture is then filtered. concentrated to 60 parts by volume, salted at 60 with 12 parts of potassium chloride and 30 parts of methanol, and cooled thoroughly. On filtration, the potassium salt of the leuco dichloroindanthrone tetrasulfuric ester is obtained in good yield.
