  2. Dimethyl sulfoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyl_sulfoxide

    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.

  3. Hygroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygroscopy

    Such materials were then said to be hygroscopic because they were suitable for making a hygroscope. Eventually, the word hygroscope ceased to be used for any such instrument in modern usage, but the word hygroscopic (tending to retain moisture) lived on, and thus also hygroscopy (the ability to do so).

  4. Sulfoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfoxide

    cis-RuCl 2 (dmso) 4, a representative metal complex of a sulfoxide. Three DMSO ligands are S-bonded to Ru, one is O-bonded. Sulfoxides, especially DMSO, form coordination complexes with transition metals. Depending on the hard-soft properties of the metal, the sulfoxide binds through either the sulfur or the oxygen atom. The latter is ...

  5. Deuterated DMSO - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deuterated_DMSO

    13 C NMR Spectrum of DMSO-d 6. Pure deuterated DMSO shows no peaks in 1 H NMR spectroscopy and as a result is commonly used as an NMR solvent. [2] However commercially available samples are not 100% pure and a residual DMSO-d 5 1 H NMR signal is observed at 2.50ppm (quintet, J HD =1.9Hz). The 13 C chemical shift of DMSO-d 6 is 39.52ppm (septet ...

  9. Humectant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humectant

    As hygroscopic moisturizers, humectants work by attracting water to the upper layer of the skin (stratum corneum). [14] All humectants have common hydroxyl groups which allow them to participate in hydrogen bonding and attract water. This process attracts moisture from the outer layer of the skin or, in high humidity, from the atmosphere.
