DMF : Dimethylformamide
DMSO: Dimethylsulfoxide
These are widely used as solvents.
What is DMF?
The term DMF stands for dimethyl formamide. It is an organic compound having the chemical formula (CH3)2NC(O)H. This substance occurs as a colourless liquid that is miscible with water and most other organic solvents. This liquid is also useful as a solvent for chemical reactions. This is due to its polar nature.
What is DMSO?
The term DMSO stands for dimethyl sulfoxide having the chemical formula (CH3)2SO. It occurs as a colourless liquid. This liquid is an important polar aprotic solvent that can dissolve both polar and nonpolar compounds. Also, this liquid is miscible with a wide range of organic solvents as well as with water. DMSO has a relatively high boiling point. Moreover, it has an unusual garlic-like taste in the mouth after contact with the skin.
