2-chloro-4-methylbenzenesulfonyl chloride

Description:
2-Chloro-4-methylbenzenesulfonyl chloride, with the CAS number 55311-94-9, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a sulfonyl chloride functional group attached to a chlorinated aromatic ring. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and storage conditions. It is known for its reactivity, particularly due to the sulfonyl chloride group, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions, making it useful in organic synthesis, especially for the introduction of sulfonyl groups into various substrates. The presence of the chlorine atom and the methyl group on the aromatic ring can influence its reactivity and solubility in organic solvents. Additionally, 2-chloro-4-methylbenzenesulfonyl chloride is considered hazardous; it can release toxic gases upon contact with water or moisture, necessitating careful handling and storage under anhydrous conditions. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with this compound in a laboratory setting.
