2,3-dihydroxybutane-1,4-diyl bis(4-methylbenzenesulfonate)

Description:

2,3-Dihydroxybutane-1,4-diyl bis(4-methylbenzenesulfonate), with the CAS number 57495-46-2, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a butane backbone with hydroxyl groups at the 2 and 3 positions and two 4-methylbenzenesulfonate groups attached at the 1 and 4 positions. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar organic solvents. It exhibits properties typical of sulfonate esters, such as being a good leaving group in nucleophilic substitution reactions. The presence of hydroxyl groups contributes to its potential reactivity, allowing for hydrogen bonding and increased polarity. This compound may be utilized in various applications, including as a reagent in organic synthesis or as an intermediate in the production of more complex molecules. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as sulfonate esters can be irritants and may require appropriate safety measures during use.
