The following is the strategy in modern synthesis of indigo dye in industry. A, formaldehyde and hydrogen cyanide converted into N-phenylglycinonitrile at 85 ° Hydrolysis takes place in aqueous alkali at 100 °C. The sodamide for the next stage is obtained by passing ammonia over molten sodium. The dried salt of phenylglycine (B) is dissolved in a eutectic, and therefore stirrable, mixture of sodium and potassium hydroxides at 220 °C and portions of molten sodamide are added. The reaction leads to sodium indoxylate, which undergoes oxidative hydrolysis to give indigo (yield of 84 %). CN NaOH/KOH A+CH₂O + HCN B + NH3 85 °C H₂O 100 °C 2 NaNH.

4) The classic synthesis of hydroquinone consists of two steps: a) oxidation of aniline with manganese dioxide in aqueous acid (HCI) to afford p-benzoquinone and b) reduction of the thus-produced quinone with iron powder in water (acid solution) to give hydroquinone. Formulate the respective (balanced) half reactions for the oxidation of aniline with MnO2 and the reduction of the pertinent quinone with Fe powder, respectively. On either side of the half reactions, indicate the oxidation state(s) of the element(s) that is (are) oxidized or reduced, respectively. Assume that the oxidation produces inorganic chlorides as byproducts whereas the reduction affords iron(II) oxide as waste and give a qualitative assessment of the atom-efficiency of this way of producing hydroquinone. Hints: Manganese ends up in the +2 oxidation state and the amino group is converted into an ammonium cation.
