Chemical Structure

[4-(4-methylbenzenesulfonyl)phenyl]methanol CAS 1461713-57-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of [4-(4-methylbenzenesulfonyl)phenyl]methanol is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

[4-(4-methylbenzenesulfonyl)phenyl]methanol (CAS 1461713-57-4), molecular formula C14H14O3S and molecular weight 262.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, [4-(4-methylbenzenesulfonyl)phenyl]methanol is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 262.32 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
