Condensation with Aldehydes By treating phenolsulphonic acid with acetaldehyde in the usual way, a viscous brown mass is obtained, which is very soluble in water, the solution being of a brown colour.
The following constitution may be ascribed to this product:-- OH OH ^ ---CH_2---CH_2--- ^ | | | | | | | | v v HSO_3 HSO_3 If benzaldehyde is used in lieu of acetaldehyde for condensing phenolsulphonic acid, a water-soluble product results, exhibiting reactions similar to those of the acetaldehyde-condensation product.
This is the conversion of acetylene by means of dilute sulphuric acid (3 volumes of concentrated acid to 7 volumes of water), preferably in the presence of mercuric oxide, to acetaldehyde.
But if to the water be added a little acid and a mercury salt, the acetylene gas will unite with the water forming a new compound, acetaldehyde.
The relationship is readily seen by this: C{2}H_{6}O --> CC_{2}H_{4}O --> C_{2}H_{4}O_{3} alcohol acetaldehyde acetic acid Acetic acid, familiar to us in a diluted and flavored form as vinegar, is when concentrated of great value in industry, especially as a solvent.
