Use of a compound of Formula (I) as a metal surface corrosion activator, a formulation containing the same compound and a process by using the same compound for providing a clean metal surface. Said formulation may further comprise water, a solvent such as a dipolar aprotic solvent, a water miscible organic solvent, or an organic base.

Use of phenol compounds as activator for metal surface corrosion

A process for the production of a compound of formula (III) which comprises a step of reacting a compound of formula (I) with an excess amount of a compound of formula (II) in absence of aromatic solvent, wherein n is 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4; X is NH, O or S; each Rgroup may be the same or different, and is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydroxyl, alkoxy, alkyl, carbonyl, carboxyl, carboxylic acid ester, amido, cyano, halogenated aliphatic, nitro, and amino; and Rgroup is selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl, Cl, F, Br, amino, and alkoxy.

Process for production of DFMB derivatives

A process for preparing a 5-halophenol, ortho-substituted by an electron-donating group, is described. Also described, is a process for preparing a sulphonic ester of an ortho-substituted phenol, which is the synthesis intermediate for the ortho-substituted 5-halophenol. The process for preparing a phenol ortho-substituted by an electron-donating group and protected in the form of a sulphonic ester can include reacting a phenol ortho-substituted by an electron-donating group with a sulphonylating agent in the presence of a Lewis acid. The process for preparing a 5-halophenol ortho-substituted by an electron-donating group can include a first step of preparing a phenol ortho-substituted by an electron-donating group and protected in the form of a sulphonic ester, as described above; a second step of halogenating the protected phenol intermediate obtained in the preceding step, in the position para to the electron-donating group; and a third step of deprotecting the sulphonic ester function to hydroxyl.
