CAS 503-40-2
:Methanedisulfonic acid
Description:
Methanedisulfonic acid, with the CAS number 503-40-2, is a colorless, viscous liquid that is highly soluble in water and exhibits strong acidity. It is a dicarboxylic acid featuring two sulfonic acid groups (-SO3H) attached to a methane backbone, which contributes to its unique properties. This compound is known for its excellent thermal stability and is often used as a solvent and reagent in various chemical reactions, particularly in organic synthesis and electrochemistry. Methanedisulfonic acid is also utilized in the formulation of cleaning agents and as a catalyst in polymerization processes. Its strong acidic nature makes it effective in promoting reactions that require a low pH environment. Additionally, it is considered less corrosive compared to other strong acids, making it a safer alternative in certain applications. However, appropriate safety measures should still be taken when handling this substance, as it can cause irritation to skin and eyes.
