Methanesulfonic acid, trifluoro-, methyl ester

Description:
Methanesulfonic acid, trifluoro-, methyl ester, commonly referred to as methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate, is an organofluorine compound characterized by its trifluoromethyl and methanesulfonate functional groups. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor. This compound is known for its high reactivity, particularly as an electrophile in organic synthesis, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including alkylation and acylation processes. Its trifluoromethyl group enhances its stability and lipophilicity, while the methanesulfonate moiety contributes to its ability to act as a leaving group in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Methanesulfonic acid, trifluoro-, methyl ester is soluble in polar organic solvents and is generally handled with care due to its corrosive nature and potential health hazards upon exposure. It is important to follow appropriate safety protocols when working with this compound, including the use of personal protective equipment and proper ventilation.
