Description:n-Hexylmesylate, with the CAS number 16156-50-6, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of mesylates, which are esters derived from methanesulfonic acid. This substance features a hexyl group, indicating a straight-chain alkyl structure with six carbon atoms, attached to the mesylate functional group. n-Hexylmesylate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid, exhibiting moderate volatility and solubility in organic solvents. It is often used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of the mesylate group enhances its reactivity, making it a useful reagent in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, n-Hexylmesylate may have applications in the development of surfactants and other chemical products. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, considering potential hazards such as skin and eye irritation, and appropriate safety measures should be observed during its use in laboratory or industrial settings.
