Common Namemethanesulfinic acid
DescriptionMethanesulfinic acid is a sulfinic acid, specifically an organic sulfur compound characterized by the chemical structure CH3S(O)OH. It plays a significant role in atmospheric chemistry, particularly in the oxidation processes of dimethyl sulfide (DMS), where it is formed alongside other products such as methanesulfonic acid and various radicals (PMID:38051922 ). Methanesulfinic acid is involved in reactions that generate hydroxyl radicals, which can limit the formation of other compounds like benzyl alcohol (PMID:40990382 ). Furthermore, it participates in gas-phase oxidation reactions that yield sulfurous acid (H2SO3) under specific conditions (PMID:38702972 ). In biological contexts, methanesulfinic acid can be released during chemical reactions involving amino acids, contributing to modifications of proteins (PMID:31332745 ). It is also found in aerosols, indicating its prevalence in environmental samples (PMID:38726054 ). The compound's behavior at the air-water interface has been studied to understand its environmental impact (PMID:30856564 ). Overall, methanesulfinic acid serves as a crucial intermediate in various chemical pathways, influencing both atmospheric and biological processes.
