METHANESULPHONIC ACID FOR SYNTHESIS

Description

Methane sulphonic acid is an alkanesulphonic acid and its chemical formula is CH3SO3H. ... Therefore MSA is considered as green acid. Therefore its use in organic synthesis attracts many chemists to use in organic synthesis. In this review we described the MSA catalyzed organic transformation.

Application
Application

Methanesulfonic acid is used as an acid catalyst in organic reactions because it is a non-volatile, strong acid that is soluble in organic solvents. It is convenient for industrial applications because it is liquid at ambient temperature, while the closely related p-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA) is solid.
