Description
Sodium Methanesulphinate (CAS No. 20277-69-4), with the molecular formula CH3NaO2S, is a highly versatile and widely utilized chemical reagent in synthetic chemistry and industrial applications. This white to off-white crystalline powder is known for its role as a sulfinating agent, enabling the introduction of sulfinate groups into organic molecules. With a technical grade purity of 85%, it is particularly valued in pharmaceutical synthesis, agrochemical production, and material science research. The compound is hygroscopic and should be stored in a cool, dry place under inert conditions to maintain stability. Its compatibility with a broad range of solvents, including water, methanol, and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), makes it a preferred choice for nucleophilic sulfonylation reactions.
Our Sodium Methanesulphinate is rigorously tested for quality, ensuring low heavy metal content and consistent performance in demanding laboratory and industrial processes. It is available in various packaging options to suit your scale of operations, from small-scale R&D to bulk manufacturing. Handle with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to avoid inhalation or skin contact, as it may cause irritation.
