ABSTRACT:
Process for preparing 3-sulfobenzoic acid and alkali metal salts thereof is disclosed. The present invention relates to a process for preparing 3-sulfobenzoic acid and/or alkali metal salts thereof, which comprises mixing 3-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoic acid with water and a water-immiscible solvent in which 3-sulfobenzoic acid is insoluble or only sparingly soluble, removing water from the mixture by azeotropic distillation, cooling and, if desired, admixing the 3-sulfobenzoic acid formed with alkali metal hydroxide and/or a substance forming alkali metal hydroxide and again removing water by azeotropic distillation.
