  2. Methylsulfonylmethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylsulfonylmethane

    Dimethyl sulfone (DMSO 2) is an organosulfur compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 SO 2. It is also known by several other names including methyl sulfone and (especially in alternative medicine) methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). [4] This colorless solid features the sulfonyl functional group and is the simplest of the sulfones. It is relatively inert ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethylsulfoniopropionate

    Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP), is an organosulfur compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 S + CH 2 CH 2 COO −.This zwitterionic metabolite can be found in marine phytoplankton, seaweeds, and some species of terrestrial and aquatic vascular plants.

  4. Organosulfur chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organosulfur_chemistry

    Organosulfur chemistry is the study of the properties and synthesis of organosulfur compounds, which are organic compounds that contain sulfur. [1] They are often associated with foul odors, but many of the sweetest compounds known are organosulfur derivatives, e.g., saccharin.

  5. Sulfonyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfonyl_group

    A sulfone. It consists of a sulfonyl group bonded with two organic substituents. In organosulfur chemistry , a sulfonyl group is either a functional group found primarily in sulfones , or a substituent obtained from a sulfonic acid by the removal of the hydroxyl group, similarly to acyl groups .

  6. Sulfone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfone

    In organic chemistry, a sulfone is a organosulfur compound containing a sulfonyl (R−S(=O) 2 −R’) functional group attached to two carbon atoms. The central hexavalent sulfur atom is double-bonded to each of two oxygen atoms and has a single bond to each of two carbon atoms, usually in two separate hydrocarbon substituents .

  7. Food web - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_web

    Food webs are limited representations of real ecosystems as they necessarily aggregate many species into trophic species, which are functional groups of species that have the same predators and prey in a food web. Ecologists use these simplifications in quantitative (or mathematical representation) models of trophic or consumer-resource systems ...

  8. Dimethyl sulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyl_sulfide

    It is used is for the production of borane dimethyl sulfide from diborane: [19] B 2 H 6 + 2 (CH 3) 2 S → 2 BH 3 ·S(CH 3) 2. Oxidation of dimethyl sulfide gives the solvent dimethyl sulfoxide. Further oxidation affords dimethyl sulfone. As illustrated above by the formation of its adduct with borane, dimethyl sulfide is a Lewis base.
