2-Oxiranemethanol, 2-(4-methylbenzenesulfonate)-

Description:

2-Oxiranemethanol, 2-(4-methylbenzenesulfonate), also known by its CAS number 6746-81-2, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of an epoxide group and a sulfonate moiety. This compound features a three-membered cyclic ether (the oxirane) which contributes to its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions. The sulfonate group, derived from p-toluenesulfonic acid, enhances the compound's solubility in polar solvents and can act as a leaving group in various chemical reactions. Typically, compounds like this are utilized in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of more complex molecules due to their ability to undergo ring-opening reactions. The presence of both the oxirane and sulfonate functionalities suggests potential applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science. Additionally, the compound's stability and reactivity can be influenced by factors such as temperature, solvent, and the presence of catalysts, making it a versatile intermediate in synthetic chemistry.
