Sulfanilic Acid from Aniline: The Hottest New Reaction in Chemistry in 1883

Welcome back to Wheeler Scientific! In today's video, we're diving into the fascinating world of sulfanilic acid synthesis. Previously, we synthesized aniline from nitrobenzene, which was derived from benzene, which is made from benzoic acid produced from toluene. Quite the journey, isn't it? Let’s transform that aniline into sulfanilic acid, a crucial compound used in azo dyes, pharmaceuticals, and analytical chemistry. Links: SUBSCRIBE ► https://www.youtube.com/c/WheelerScie...
