Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an organosulfur compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 S O.This colorless liquid is the sulfoxide most widely used commercially. It is an important polar aprotic solvent that dissolves both polar and nonpolar compounds and is miscible in a wide range of organic solvents as well as water.
