functional group In organic chemistry, a functional group is a substituent or moiety in a molecule that causes the molecule's characteristic chemical reactions. The same functional group will undergo the same or similar chemical reactions regardless of the res ...
with the chemical formula BrC6H4SO2. This group is usually introduced using the compound brosyl chloride, BrC6H4SO2Cl, which forms sulfonyl esters and amides of ''p''-bromophenylsulfonic acid. The term brosylate refers to the anion of ''p''-bromophenylsulfonic acid (BrC6H4SO3).
