Disodium 2‐sulfoalkyl sulfates RCH (SO 3 Na) CH 2 OSO 3 Na were prepared from esters of a ‐sulfo acids by metal borohydride reduction of the ester group to a primary alcohol, and subsequent sulfation. Disodium 2‐sulfoɆctadecyl sulfate resembles disodium 2‐sulfoethyl a ‐sulfostearate in general structure and properties, particularly in the fact that both are excellent lime soap dispersing agents.
