Aromatic sulfonic acid refers to a group of organic compounds that incorporate a sulfonic acid group () directly bonded to an aromatic ring.
These acids are synthesized through sulfonation reactions involving aromatic hydrocarbons and sulfonating agents like concentrated sulfuric acid or oleum.
The sulfonic acid group confers hydrophilicity and enhanced water solubility to the molecules, thereby increasing their effectiveness in numerous industrial processes.
This group includes several widely used derivatives such as p-Toluenesulfonic Acid (PTSA), Benzenesulfonic Acid (BSA), Xylene Sulfonic Acid (XSA), and Phenolsulfonic Acid.
