Dimethyl sulfone (DMSO 2) is an organosulfur compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 SO 2. It is also known by several other names including methyl sulfone and (especially in alternative medicine) methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). [4] This colorless solid features the sulfonyl functional group and is the simplest of the sulfones. It is relatively inert ...
Trifluoromethyl trifluoroethyl trioxide CF 3 OOOCF 2 CF 3 boils between 10 and 20° [142] Bis-trifluoromethyl carbonate boils between −10 and +10° [37] possibly +12, freezing −60° [143] Difluoroaminosulfinyl fluoride F 2 NS(O)F is a gas but decomposes over several hours [144] Trifluoromethylsulfinyl chloride CF 3 S(O)Cl [71]
The sulfonyl chlorides and fluorides are of dominant importance in this series. [1] [2] Sulfonyl halides have tetrahedral sulfur centres attached to two oxygen atoms, an organic radical, and a halide. In a representative example, methanesulfonyl chloride, the S=O, S−C, and S−Cl bond distances are respectively 142.4, 176.3, and 204.6 pm. [3]
[3] Similar to MsCl, Ms 2 O can perform mesylation of alcohols to form sulfonates. Use of Ms 2 O avoids the alkyl chloride, which often appears as a side-product when MsCl is used. [4] Unlike MsCl, Ms 2 O may not be suitable for mesylation of the unsaturated alcohols. [5] Examples of mesylation of alcohols with Ms 2 O:
Methanesulfonyl azide melts at 18 °C and decomposes from 120 °C. [1] Like many other azides, it is explosive. [3] At low temperature, methanesulfonyl azide crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system in the space group P1 with the lattice parameters a = 5.6240 Å; b = 5.9498 Å, c = 7.6329 Å, α = 72.216°, β = 70.897°, and γ = 88.601°, and two molecules per unit cell.
Methanesulfonyl chloride is mainly used to give methanesulfonates by its reaction with alcohols in the presence of a non-nucleophilic base. [8] In contrast to the formation of toluenesulfonates from alcohols and p-toluenesulfonyl chloride in the presence of pyridine, the formation of methanesulfonates is believed to proceed via a mechanism wherein methanesulfonyl chloride first undergoes an ...
Triflidic acid (IUPAC name: tris[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]methane, abbreviated formula: Tf 3 CH) is an organic superacid. It is one of the strongest known carbon acids and is among the strongest Brønsted acids in general, with an acidity exceeded only by the carborane acids .
Methyl methanesulfonate (MMS), also known as methyl mesylate, is an alkylating agent and a carcinogen. It is also a suspected reproductive toxicant, and may also be a skin/sense organ toxicant. [ 1 ] It is used in cancer treatment.
