Chemical Structure
Isethionic acid (80% in water)
Synonym(s): 2-Hydroxyethanesulfonic acid
- CAS No.: 107-36-8
- Formula:C2H6O4S
- Molecular Weight:126.13
IUPAC Name: 2-hydroxyethane-1-sulfonic acid
InChIKey: SUMDYPCJJOFFON-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: O=S(CCO)(O)=O
Biological Activity: Isethionic acid (2-Hydroxyethanesulfonic acid) is an endogenous mammalian Taurine (HY-B0351) metabolite. Isethionic acid forms covalent ester linkages with cholic acid. It acts as a larval settlement inhibitor for Balanus amphitrite with larval toxicity. Isethionic acid enables the low-temperature synthesis of highly hygroscopic water-soluble sulfonates, and its acylated derivatives serve as acidic wetting solubilizers. It is used in studies related to hepatic bile acid metabolism, biological control and organic synthesis[1][2][3].
