What is DMSO (CAS 67-68-5) used for?
DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) is a polar aprotic solvent, meaning it can stabilise charged species without participating in hydrogen bonding with nucleophiles.
In SN2 reactions, it enhances the nucleophilicity of the reactants, resulting in faster reaction rates than with polar protic solvents.
It is often used in the oxidation of alcohols, acting as a solvent that improves interaction between reagents.
In nucleophilic aromatic substitution, DMSO provides a medium in which the aryl halide can react effectively with strong nucleophiles.
Due to its low toxicity and ability to penetrate biological membranes, DMSO has various pharmaceutical applications and is used as a cryoprotectant.
