Dimethyl sulfoxide ACS is a clear and colorless liquid. It is also known by other names such as Methyl Sulfoxide, DMSO, Methyl sulphoxide, and Sulfinylbismethane. This compound is capable of mixing with various substances including water, diethyl ether, ethanol, acetone, ether, carbon tetrachloride, and ethyl acetate. Its chemical formula is C2H6OS. Due to its unique properties, it serves as a significant polar aprotic solvent that can dissolve both polar and non-polar compounds. DMSO possesses a relatively high boiling point and can be utilized as a solvent in non-spectrophotometric methods of analysis. Moreover, it is a valuable solvent in gas chromatography. It is particularly suitable for analytical applications where UV absorption is not a critical factor.
