Ethylsulfonamide is an important sulfonamide derivative widely used as a pharmaceutical intermediate and organic synthesis building block. It exhibits a melting point of 60°C (lit.) and boiling point of 214.9±23.0°C at 760 mmHg, with a density of 1.3±0.1 g/cm³. The compound shows good solubility in polar organic solvents but limited water solubility. As a versatile intermediate, it finds applications in the synthesis of sulfonylurea herbicides and various bioactive molecules. Storage should be in sealed containers at room temperature, protected from moisture. Safety precautions include wearing protective gloves and eye/face protection due to potential irritation (GHS Category 2).
