Benzenesulfonyl chloride, 2,6-dimethyl-4-(1-methylethyl)-

Description:

Benzenesulfonyl chloride, 2,6-dimethyl-4-(1-methylethyl)-, also known by its CAS number 125131-61-5, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a sulfonyl chloride functional group attached to a substituted benzene ring. This compound features a benzene ring with two methyl groups at the 2 and 6 positions and an isopropyl group at the 4 position, contributing to its steric and electronic properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, and it is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions. As a sulfonyl chloride, it can act as a sulfonating agent, making it useful in organic synthesis for the introduction of sulfonyl groups into various substrates. The compound is sensitive to moisture and can hydrolyze to form benzenesulfonic acid, thus requiring careful handling and storage under anhydrous conditions. Its applications may include use in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemical compounds.
