Description:4-Butoxybenzenesulfonyl chloride, with the CAS number 1138-56-3, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a sulfonyl chloride functional group attached to a butoxy-substituted benzene ring. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions. The sulfonyl chloride group makes it a potent electrophile, allowing it to react with various nucleophiles, including amines and alcohols, to form sulfonamides and sulfonate esters, respectively. It is often used in organic synthesis as a sulfonating agent or as an intermediate in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Due to its reactive nature, it should be handled with care, as it can be corrosive and may cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Proper safety precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area, are essential when working with this compound.
