p-(Methylsulfonyl)benzylalcohol

Description:
p-(Methylsulfonyl)benzylalcohol, with the CAS number 22821-77-8, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzyl alcohol moiety substituted with a methylsulfonyl group at the para position. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid or crystalline substance. It is soluble in polar organic solvents such as ethanol and dimethyl sulfoxide, but its solubility in water is limited due to its hydrophobic benzyl group. The methylsulfonyl group contributes to its polar characteristics, enhancing its reactivity in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. p-(Methylsulfonyl)benzylalcohol may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry and pharmaceutical research. Its functional groups allow for potential applications in the synthesis of more complex molecules, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. As with many organic compounds, proper handling and safety precautions should be observed, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
