Description

Benzene, [[(fluoromethyl)sulfonyl]methyl]- (CAS No. 110009-96-6) is a high-purity specialty chemical with the molecular formula C₈H₉FO₂S. This organosulfur compound, also known by its IUPAC name fluoromethylsulfonylmethylbenzene, features a benzene core functionalized with a fluoromethylsulfonylmethyl group, offering unique reactivity for advanced synthetic applications. With a molecular weight of 188.22 g/mol, this reagent is supplied as a stable solid or liquid (depending on storage conditions) and is ideal for use in pharmaceutical intermediates, agrochemical research, and materials science. Its structural motif makes it valuable for introducing fluorinated sulfone groups in coupling reactions, nucleophilic substitutions, and as a building block for bioactive molecules. Packaged under inert gas to ensure stability, this compound is characterized by GC/MS, ¹H/¹³C NMR, and elemental analysis to guarantee ??95% purity (HPLC). Handle with appropriate PPE due to potential sensitivity to moisture and reactive fluorinated groups.

Application

This compound serves as a versatile fluorinated synthon in medicinal chemistry for the development of sulfone-containing drug candidates. It is particularly useful in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to create biaryl structures with enhanced metabolic stability. Researchers also employ it as an electrolyte additive in lithium-ion batteries to improve SEI formation. In materials science, it acts as a precursor for sulfonated polymers with ion-conducting properties.
