The Perkin reaction is used for the production of History. The oldest process for making acetic
a, b-unsaturated acids from aromatic aldehydes, anhydride is based on the conversion of sodium
such as benzaldehyde, in the presence of potas- acetate with an excess of an inorganic chloride,
sium acetate or sodium acetate. This reaction is such as thionyl chloride, sulfuryl chloride, or
also suitable for synthesizing cinnamalacetic phosphoryl chloride. In this process, half of the
acid [50]: sodium acetate is converted to acetyl chloride,
which then reacts with the remaining sodium
acetate to form acetic anhydride:
