Aminonaphthalenesulfonic acids explained

Aminonaphthalenesulfonic acids are compounds with the composition C10H6(NH2)(SO3H), being derived from naphthalene (C10H8) substituted by an amino and sulfonic acid groups. These compounds are colorless solids. They are useful precursors to dyes.[1]

1-Aminonaphthalene-7-sulfonic acid119-28-81,7-Cleve’s acidby-product in production of 1,6-Cleve’s acid, precursor to C.I. Acid Black 36
1-Aminonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid82-75-7Peri acidreduction of 1-nitroonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid, precursor to C.I. Acid Blue 113

Notes: Peri-acid dehydrates to the sultam. Via the Bucherer reaction, heating periacid with anilinium salts gives the N-phenyl derivative, precursor to Acid Blue 113.
