    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 ...

    A hygroscopic substance used to induce or sustain a state of dryness or desiccation (i.e. the absence of moisture) in its vicinity by abstracting water molecules from other substances. Desiccants come in many different forms and work by many different principles, ranging from simple absorption to the chemical bonding of water molecules.

    Starting from the 1960s, it received a shortened name of mesylic acid [7] after the term for the "mesyl" group coined by Helferich et al. in 1938. [ 8 ] In 1967, the Pennwalt Corporation (USA) developed a different process for dimethylsulfide (as a water-based emulsion) oxidation using chlorine , followed by extraction-purification.
