Any one heard a bout this chemical
Some one say he make a new chemical from mixing alkyl benzene with other chemical and obtain this chemical called
Disodium dodecyl sulphate
My question is
Is this true ?
Is this can be done without any reactors?
Just by mixing
Can we find chemical like this ?
Please anyone know the answer just reply
Thanks in advance ☺ -

I think the no answer means no one has heard of it. Perhaps you’re thinking of disodium lauryl sulfosuccinate?
but no you couldn’t make the molecule just by mixing benzene without a reactor

Name is not consistent with structure. Structure appears to be didodecyl benzene disulfonate sodium salt and I doubt it would be a simple product of combination.
There is an anionic surfactant dodecyl benzene sulfonate sodium salt used as a commercial detergent - OSHA hazardous and a substantial irritant you’d not use in cosmetics. https://www.fishersci.com/store/msds?partNumber=AC325910050&productDescription=DODECYLBENZENESULFONIC+A+5KG&vendorId=VN00032119&countryCode=US&language=enThink the one you questioned would be worse.

@Chemist_Ahmed I believe someone was just doodling with Chemdraw (or some similar software). There are few errors though: sulfur in the upper part is missplaced, and there’s an additional oxygen attached to the lower sulfur (sulfur can take up to 12 electrons, not 14).
Besides that, I hardly see any real use for that molecule as a surfactant (the extra alkyl chain and extra sulfonate would make packing harder).

One of the the Sulfur atoms in the structure has too many bonds. There are also 23 extra Hydrogens in molecular formula. Something strange is going on.
