Chloramine-T is prepared in 75 – 95 % yield by passing chlorine into a sodium hydroxide solution of p-toluenesulfonamide. It is a strong electrolyte in acid solution and a good oxidizing agent in base. It is fairly soluble in water, and practically insoluble in benzene, chloroform, and ether. The compound reacts readily with mustard gas to yield a harmless crystalline sulfimide; chloramine-T derivatives are being studied as protective agents against poison gas.
