Abstract Research was performed on the development of lime soap dispersing agents derived from alkylbenzenes. The sulfonation with sodium bisulfite of a variety of methyl β‐ p ‐alkylbenzoylacrylates (III) produced adducts (I) whose detergent properties were studied. Yields were optimized, model compounds were synthesized, and products characterized by NMR spectroscopy. The sulfonated adduct (I‐A) derived from a commercial mixture of alkylbenzenes can be formulated with tallow soap, sodium silicate, and sodium carboxy methylcellulose to give a product that is competitive with a standard linear alkylbenzenesulfonate‐phosphate household detergent.
