Description
2-(Methylsulfonyl)ethanol is a sulfone-functionalised alcohol reagent offered at a minimum purity of 95 %. It carries CAS number 15205-66-0 and the empirical formula C₃H₈O₃S, with a molar mass of 124,16 g/mol. Key physical data include a density of 1,285 g/cm³, a flash point of 162,2 °C, and a boiling point of 145 °C, supporting informed handling and process planning in the laboratory. The product is This grade from manufacturer Carl ROTH provides transparent identity and property information for specification control and documentation. Laboratories can rely on the stated CAS number, empirical formula, molar mass, and density when integrating the material into synthetic sequences, formulation trials, or analytical support tasks. The combination of minimum 95 % purity, multi-gram packaging, and clearly reported physical constants makes the reagent practical for professional workflows that require a defined methylsulfonyl ethanol building block without unnecessary excess volume.

Questions about 2-(Methylsulfonyl)ethanol, min. 95 %, 5 g
What is this article?
2-(Methylsulfonyl)ethanol, min. 95 %, 5 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), inside Solvents, in Lab chemicals.
An analytical-grade solvent, often marked p.a., has impurity limits tight enough for classical analysis and for preparing reagents. It is not automatically low enough in UV absorbance for HPLC, and it is not dry enough for a water-sensitive reaction. The grade is the purchase.
A solvent dissolves. The grade says which impurities are low enough for the method. Analytical grade is the ordinary pure solvent. HPLC and LC-MS grades limit the absorbance and the ions that would become peaks or background. A dry solvent has had water removed. A deuterated solvent is for NMR, where the hydrogen signal would otherwise drown the sample. Technical grade is for cleaning and for synthesis that does not need a chromatogram. Identity is on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Hazards follow ECHA, the CLP Regulation and REACH.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Solvents. The sub-category is Analytical grade solvents (p.a.). The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are HPLC & LC-MS grade solvents, Dry & deuterated solvents (NMR, synthesis), Technical & synthesis grade solvents and Green & alternative solvents.
What should I check before I order?
