3-Nitro-4-chlorophenyl methyl sulfone is an important sulfone derivative widely used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis and agrochemical production. This compound exhibits a melting point of 122-125°C (lit.) with predicted boiling point of 419.7±45.0°C at 760 mmHg. It has a density of 1.520±0.06 g/cm³ and logP value of 3.25570, indicating moderate lipophilicity. The material should be stored in sealed containers at room temperature, protected from light and moisture. Safety precautions are required due to its irritating properties (GHS Category 2), including the use of gloves and eye protection. Its molecular structure features both electron-withdrawing nitro and chloro substituents, making it valuable for nucleophilic substitution reactions in drug discovery.
