Benzenesulfonic acid is a relatively modest value. A variety of [[pharmaceutical drug]]s are prepared as benzenesulfonate salts and are known as '''besilates''' ([[international nonproprietary name|INN]]) or '''besylates''' ([[United States Adopted Name|USAN]]). It is the alkylated derivatives - linear [[alkylbenzene sulfonate]] - that are of intense commercial interest, being produced on the megaton scale annually as surfactants and detergents. |
