Dimethyl sulphide by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. Also known as (Methylthio)methane, this is an organosulfur compound. The reagent is available as a colourless liquid which is miscible in alcohol. It has a melting point of 98C, and a boiling point of 35 to 41 C. Dimethyl sulphide can be synthesized by treating hydrogen sulphide with excess methanol over an aluminium oxide catalyst. While it is stable under general conditions, this reagent is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. CAS No.: 75-18-3 Quantity Provided: 500 ml per bottle Molecular formula: C2H6S Molecular weight: 62.13 Assay: 99 %Dimethyl sulphide has a variety of applications in chemical and biological sectors. This compound finds several applications in the synthesis of various organic derivatives. Dimethyl sulphide is widely used in petroleum refining to pre-sulphide hydrodesulfurization catalysts. As a pre-sulfiding agent, it controls the formation of coke and carbon monoxide in ethylene production. It is additionally used as a food flavouring component. Dimethyl sulphide is additionally used in the ozonolysis of alkenes. This reagent is suitable for the industrial synthesis of products and research applications.
