Description

Di-n-Octyl Sulfoxide is a high-purity organosulfur compound characterized by its sulfinyl functional group flanked by two linear octyl chains. This molecular structure imparts unique solvating and coordinating properties, making it a valuable specialty chemical for advanced industrial processes. It is primarily utilized in sectors such as chemical synthesis, metal extraction, and materials science where its specific polarity and ligand behavior are required.

Application

  • As a specialized solvent and extractant in hydrometallurgy for the separation and purification of precious and rare earth metals.
  • As a ligand and catalyst component in organometallic chemistry and transition metal-catalyzed reactions.
  • As a polar aprotic solvent for high-temperature organic synthesis and polymerization processes.
  • In the formulation of advanced lubricant additives and functional fluids for industrial machinery.
  • As a key intermediate in the synthesis of more complex sulfoxide-based specialty chemicals and pharmaceuticals.
  • In research and development applications within academic and industrial laboratories studying solvent effects and coordination chemistry.

Quality Control

Our Di-n-Octyl Sulfoxide is manufactured under a stringent quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for identity, purity, and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting the results of tests such as assay, identity, and impurity profile is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from strong bases and incompatible materials. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize moisture absorption and contamination.
