English[edit]
Etymology[edit]
Noun[edit]
tosyl (plural tosyls)
- (organic chemistry, especially in combination) toluenesulfonyl, phenylmethylsulfonyl
Usage notes[edit]
Often abbreviated "Ts", but this conflicts with Ts = tennessine. This will be especially a problem if and when a means of mass-producing tennessine is invented.
Synonyms[edit]
- ptosyl (strictly p-tosyl)
