Products Description of Dimethyl Sulfoxide-d6 CAS#2206-27-1
Commercial grades of deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide generally reach a purity level of approximately 99.5%. Water and dimethyl sulfone represent its primary trace contaminants. Classified as a sulfur-bearing organic molecule, deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide presents itself as a colourless, odourless and clear liquid under ambient temperature.
This compound is hygroscopic and combustible, featuring strong polarity, an elevated boiling point, favourable thermal stability and aprotic characteristics. It mixes freely with water and dissolves in the majority of organic media such as ethanol, propanol and chloroform. Owing to its outstanding dissolving capacity, it is commonly labelled the “universal solvent”.
Deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide has broad utility as a dissolution medium and reaction agent, notably serving as a medium for processing and fibre spinning. Its scope covers the synthesis and spinning of polyurethane, alongside the production of polyamide, polyimide and polysulfone resins. It also functions as an extractant for aromatic hydrocarbons and butadiene, and acts as a reaction medium during chlorofluoroaniline synthesis. Beyond these uses, this deuterated solvent sees substantial application within the pharmaceutical field.

Products Description of Dimethyl Sulfoxide-d6 CAS#2206-27-1
Commercial deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide reagents commonly attain a purity of roughly 99.5%. Water and dimethyl sulfone constitute its chief impurities. As a sulfur-based organic substance, deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide takes the form of a colourless, odourless and clear liquid under ambient conditions.
This liquid is hygroscopic and combustible. It possesses strong polarity, a high boiling point, reliable thermal stability and aprotic traits. It can blend infinitely with water and dissolve in most organic vehicles such as ethanol, propanol and chloroform. Thanks to its remarkable dissolving power, it earns the reputation of a “universal solvent”.
Deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide serves broadly as a solvent and reaction medium, most notably for processing and fibre spinning tasks. It is deployed in the synthesis and spinning of polyurethane, plus the manufacture of polyamide, polyimide and polysulfone polymers. It can also act as an extractant for aromatic hydrocarbons and butadiene, and function as a solvent when synthesising chlorofluoroaniline. Moreover, this deuterated reagent enjoys extensive adoption across pharmaceutical manufacturing.
