What is Methyl benzenesulfonate?
Chemical properties
clear colourless to slightly brown liquid
The Uses of Methyl benzenesulfonate
A sulfonate ester as potential genotoxic impurity in drug substances.
The Uses of Methyl benzenesulfonate
Methyl benzenesulfonate is a sulfonate ester which acts as a potential genotoxic impurity in drug substances. Further, it exerts genotoxic effects in bacterial and mammalian cell systems.
Solubility
Miscible with chloroform, methanol, ethanol and ether. Immiscible with water.
Synthesis
A method for preparing methyl benzenesulfonate is characterized in that: after benzene sulfonyl chloride is added reaction kettle, drip methanol solution of sodium methylate to finishing; 25~35 ℃ of insulation 30min, insulation finishes, and is neutralized to pH7 ~ 7.2; Filter, filtrating intensification is steamed and is removed methyl alcohol, is cooled to room temperature; Decolorization filtering gets the colourless transparent liquid methyl benzenesulfonate, wherein, and the mol ratio 1:1.2 of benzene sulfonyl chloride and sodium methylate.
