4- (acetamido) -2 -aminobenzenesulfonic acid, also known as p-acetamido-m-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, has the following physical and chemical properties:
This substance is solid at room temperature, and its color is often white to light yellow crystalline powder. From the melting point point point point of view, it has a relatively clear melting point value, which is helpful for purity identification and other operations in the laboratory by melting point tester. If the sample purity is high, its melting point should be close to the theoretical melting point value.
In terms of solubility, it has a certain solubility in water, which is closely related to the polar groups contained in the molecular structure. Polar groups such as amino and sulfonic acid groups make it possible to form hydrogen bonds between molecules and water molecules, so that it has a certain solubility in water. However, in some organic solvents such as ether and benzene, the solubility is poor because the molecular polarity does not match the non-polar solvent.
Chemically, due to the presence of amino groups and sulfonic acid groups in the molecule, amino groups have a certain alkalinity. Under acidic conditions, amino groups are easy to combine with protons and undergo protonation reactions to generate corresponding salts; sulfonic acid groups are acidic and can neutralize with bases to form sulfonates. This acid-base amphoteric makes it exhibit different chemical behaviors in different acid and alkali environments. In addition, the substituents on the benzene ring also affect the electron cloud density of the benzene ring, making it exhibit unique activities in electrophilic substitution and other reactions. For example, halogenation, nitrification and other reactions can occur under appropriate conditions, and the substitution position is affected by the positioning groups such as amino and acetamido groups. At the same time, acetamido groups are relatively stable, but under certain conditions such as strong acid or alkali environment, heating, etc., hydrolysis reactions can occur to form amino groups and acetic acids or corresponding salts, thereby changing the molecular structure and properties.

The preparation method of 4- (acetamido) -2 -aminobenzenesulfonic acid, although the preparation method of this specific compound is not detailed in Tiangong Kaiwu, it can be deduced from the related techniques and principles of ancient chemical industry.
Ancient acid production, mostly involving mineral sources, through calcination, sublimation, water rinsing and other processes. To obtain this sulfonic acid, or to find minerals or natural substances containing benzene rings with amino groups and amide groups, but natural substances containing such specific structures are rare, so it may need to be synthesized in multiple steps.
In ancient chemical synthesis, natural organic materials were often the beginning. You can first take plant extracts containing benzene or coal tar fractionation products (although its composition is unknown in ancient times, it may be used in practice), and introduce nitro groups through nitrification. Ancient nitrification, or a mixed system of saltpeter (potassium nitrate) and sulfuric acid (green alum oil), so that the hydrogen on the benzene ring is replaced by nitro to obtain nitrobenzene derivatives.
Then, the nitro group is converted to amino group by reduction. Ancient reduction, or a metal (such as iron, zinc) and acid (such as acetic acid) system, makes the nitro group gradually reduce the electron to amino group.
As for the introduction of acetamide groups, natural substances containing acetyl groups can be found, such as acetic anhydride (which can be obtained by a specific process in ancient times), so that it reacts with amino-containing compounds and reacts with acetamide groups through acylation.
Later, if you want to introduce sulfonic acid groups, or use fuming sulfuric acid (although there is no such precise concept in ancient times, you may know the method of strong sulfating agents), so that the hydrogen on the benzene ring is replaced by sulfonic acid groups, and the final result is 4- (acetamido) -2-aminobenzenesulfonic acid. This process requires precise control of various reaction conditions such as temperature, material ratio, reaction time, etc. Although the ancient technology is limited, it may be achieved with experience and repeated attempts.

4 - (acetamido) - 2 - aminobenzenesulfonic acid should be paid attention to during storage and transportation.
This compound has specific chemical properties. When stored, the first environment is dry. If the environment is humid, it may absorb moisture, which may affect the quality, or even cause chemical reactions and cause it to deteriorate. Therefore, it should be placed in a dry and well-ventilated place, away from water sources and moisture.
Temperature is also a key factor. It is sensitive to temperature, and high temperature or decomposition, volatilization, etc. damage the stability of the material. Therefore, it should be stored in a suitable temperature range, usually in a cool place, to avoid direct sunlight and high temperature environment.
During transportation, the packaging must be stable. Because the compound may be dangerous, the stable packaging can prevent leakage and damage during transportation. Use special containers to ensure that they are well sealed to prevent reactions from contact with external substances.
Furthermore, it must be isolated from other chemicals. Due to its chemical activity, contact with certain substances or cause violent reactions, resulting in safety accidents. In transportation and storage places, it should be strictly classified and stored to avoid mixed storage.
The handling process also needs to be cautious. Handle with care, do not let the container be violently hit or vibrated to prevent damage to the package and material leakage. Operators should prepare protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles, etc., for safety.
