4-hydroxybutyl methanesulfonate

Description:

4-Hydroxybutyl methanesulfonate is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a hydroxy group and a methanesulfonate moiety. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. This compound is soluble in water and polar organic solvents, which enhances its utility in various chemical applications. The hydroxy group contributes to its reactivity, allowing it to participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions, while the methanesulfonate group serves as a good leaving group in such reactions. 4-Hydroxybutyl methanesulfonate is often used in the synthesis of other chemical compounds, particularly in the production of surfactants, pharmaceuticals, and polymers. Its properties make it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, it may exhibit low toxicity, but handling should still be conducted with care, following appropriate safety protocols. As with any chemical substance, its behavior can be influenced by environmental conditions such as pH and temperature, which should be considered in practical applications.

4-Methanesulfonyloxybutanol

CAS: 42729-95-3

4-Methanesulfonyloxybutanol is a chemical substance with the molecular formula CH3SO2CH(CH2OH)CH2OH. It is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of 4-methanesulfonyloxybutanol, which is a potent inhibitor of busulfan-induced leukopenia and myelosuppression. This substance has been shown to be highly effective in preventing busulfan-induced side effects when administered intravenously. 4-Methanesulfonyloxybutanol is chemically synthesized by intramolecular alkylation of butanol, followed by hydrolysis. The reaction product can be detected using an ionization detector in conjunction with gas chromatography. This product is an alkylation agent that reacts with polypropylene to produce polypropylene glycols.
