Description :
Diethyl Sulfide is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent, garlic- or onion-like odor characteristic of organic sulfur compounds. It is an organosulfur compound with the chemical formula (C₂H₅)₂S, and it is widely used in the flavor, fragrance, and chemical industries. Due to its distinct sulfurous and roasted odor, Diethyl Sulfide plays a key role in food flavor formulations, fuel additives, and organic synthesis. It is also used as a solvent, intermediate, and laboratory reagent in chemical research and industrial manufacturing.
Diethyl Sulfide is used in savory and roasted flavor formulations to replicate the natural aroma of onion, garlic, and cooked meats. It is often added in trace amounts to enhance the complexity and authenticity of seasonings, sauces, soups, and snack products. Explore other flavor chemicals, such as Ethyl Isovalerate and Pentanoic Acid.
In perfumery, Diethyl Sulfide is used sparingly to introduce animalic, smoky, or sulfurous nuances that add realism to leather, tobacco, or gourmand fragrance compositions. It is typically used in trace concentrations to balance or round out deep base notes. You may also like Linalyl Formate and Rosalva.
Diethyl Sulfide acts as an intermediate in the synthesis of other organosulfur compounds and as a complexing agent in metal extraction and chemical processing. It is also used in polymerization, as a catalyst system, and as a stabilizer in industrial reactions. Check similar industrial compounds, such as Ethyl Oleate and Disodium Succinate.
In laboratories, Diethyl Sulfide is employed as a sulfur donor in organic reactions and as a ligand in coordination chemistry. It is used in R&D studies to investigate sulfur-based reaction mechanisms and the behavior of odor compounds. Explore related fine chemicals, such as Phytol and Vinyl Sulfurol.
