Organic Intermediate P-Toluenesulfonic Acid CAS 104-15-4




p-Toluenesulfonic acid (CAS 104-15-4), also known as p-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA) or p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (TsOH·H₂O), is an important organic compound. The following is a detailed introduction:


Basic Information



Chemical Name: p-Toluenesulfonic acid

CAS Number: 104-15-4

Molecular Formula: C₇H₈O₃S (anhydrous); C₇H₁₀O₄S (monohydrate)

Molecular Weight: 172.20 g/mol (anhydrous); 190.22 g/mol (monohydrate)

Appearance: White solid, typically present as needle-shaped or powdery crystals

Solubility: Soluble in water, alcohols, and other polar organic solvents such as ethanol and ether; insoluble in non-polar solvents such as benzene and toluene

Stability: Excellent stability during storage and use, but should be avoided from contact with strong oxidants, strong bases, and most common metals to prevent chemical reactions.


Chemical Properties


-Acidity: P-Toluenesulfonic Acid is a strong organic acid, approximately a million times more acidic than benzoic acid. In aqueous solution, it dissociates almost completely, exhibiting strong acidity.

-Structure: The 4-CH₃C₆H₄SO₂- group in its molecule is known as the p-toluenesulfonyl group (tosyl group), often abbreviated as Ts or Tos.
