Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is a widely used solvent that is miscible with water and a wide range of organic solvents. It goes by several names, including methyl sulfoxide, sulfinylbismethane, and dozens of trade names.
CAS 67-68-5 DMSO is a laboratory and industrial solvent for many gases, synthetic fibers, paint, hydrocarbons, salts, and natural products. Because it is aprotic, relatively inert, nontoxic, and stable at high temperatures, it is a frequently used solvent for chemical reactions. Its deuterated form is an ideal solvent for NMR spectroscopy.


Applications
DMSO is widely used in several applications, including:
- Chemical Reactions: Dimethyl sulfoxide solution serves as a solvent in various chemical reactions, particularly those involving salts, such as Finkelstein reactions. Its ability to solvate a broad range of reactants enhances reaction efficiency and can facilitate reactions that might not occur in other solvents.
- Biological Research: DMSO is utilized in molecular biology and biochemistry for its ability to penetrate biological membranes, making it useful for transporting compounds into cells. It is also employed as a cryoprotectant in the preservation of biological samples.
- Materials Science: In materials science, dimethyl sulfoxide solvent is used in the synthesis and intercalation processes of nanomaterials, aiding in the dispersion of materials at the molecular level. It is also significant in polymer chemistry for dissolving and manipulating polymers.
