Properties and stability

1. Chemical properties: It can form addition compounds with halogens, metal halides, etc. Or react with alkyl halides to form sulfonium compounds. When oxidized, sulfoxide is generated, and continued oxidation generates sulfone. It is easy to burn and explode when exposed to open flames or high heat. Thermal decomposition produces toxic sulfide fumes.

2. This product is poisonous. Low-concentration dimethyl sulfide vapor generally causes nausea and loss of appetite, while high-concentration vapor has a paralyzing effect on the central nervous system. During the production process, it must be sealed to prevent running, popping, dripping and leaking. Ventilation should be strengthened at the production site, and operators should wear protective equipment. In the event of poisoning, you should move to a place with fresh air and seek medical treatment.

3. Stability^[20] Stable

4. Incompatible substances^[21] Strong oxidants, alkalis, ammonia

5. Conditions to avoid contact ^[22] Heat

6. Polymerization hazard^[23] No polymerization

7. Decomposition products^[24] Sulfide

Storage method

Storage Precautions^[25]Stored in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature should not exceed 29°C. The packaging must be sealed and must not come into contact with air. They should be stored separately from oxidants, alkalis, and ammonia, and avoid mixed storage. Use explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities. It is prohibited to use mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to sparks. The storage area should be equipped with emergency release equipment and suitable containment materials.

Synthesis method

1. Refining method: Use the complex formed between mercuric chloride and methyl sulfide for refining: add 1 mol of mercuric chloride to 1250 mL of ethanol, and then add 0.67 mol of methyl sulfide alcohol solution to this solution. The resulting solid is recrystallized to obtain complex crystals with a certain melting point and a structure of 2(CH3)2S·HgCl2. Dissolve 250 mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid in 780 mL of water, add 500 g of the refined complex, and heat to separate the methyl sulfide. After washing with water and drying with calcium chloride, the purity can reach 99.995% (mol).

Purpose

1. This product is a solvent and an intermediate for the production of dimethyl sulfoxide, methionine and pesticides. It can be used as a solvent for organic compounds, resins, inorganic compounds, polymerization reactions and cyanide reactions. Used as analytical reagent, polyacrylonitrile and other synthetic fiber spinning and hydraulic oil. It can also be used as an odorant for city gas, an industrial purifier, a paint release agent, a low-temperature preservative for batteries, a pesticide penetrant, etc. Used topically in hematological medicines, phytopathology and nutrition.

2. Used as solvent and catalyst for most inorganic substances. ^[26]
