Description:4-Methoxybenzenesulfonamide, also known as p-methoxybenzenesulfonamide, is an organic compound characterized by a sulfonamide functional group attached to a methoxy-substituted benzene ring. Its molecular structure features a benzene ring with a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the para position relative to the sulfonamide group (-SO2NH2). This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, owing to the presence of the sulfonamide group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. 4-Methoxybenzenesulfonamide is often utilized in pharmaceutical applications, particularly as an intermediate in the synthesis of various drugs and biologically active compounds. Its sulfonamide moiety can impart antibacterial properties, making it relevant in medicinal chemistry. Additionally, it may exhibit properties such as moderate stability under standard conditions, but it should be handled with care due to potential reactivity with strong oxidizing agents. Overall, its unique structural features contribute to its utility in various chemical and pharmaceutical contexts.
