'''Dimethyl disulfide''' ('''DMDS''') is an ] ] with the molecular formula {{chem2|CH3SSCH3}}. It is a flammable liquid with an unpleasant, ]-like odor. The compound is colorless although impure samples often appear yellowish.

==Occurrence and synthesis==
Dimethyl disulfide is widespread in nature. It is emitted by bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals.
Along with ] and ] it has been confirmed as volatile compounds given off by the fly-attracting plant known as ] ('']''). These flies are attracted to the ] resembling that of fetid meat, and thus help pollinate this plant.<ref>{{cite journal |journal=Nature |volume=420 |year=2002 |pages=625–626 |author1=Marcus C. Stensmyr |author2=Isabella Urru |author3=Ignazio Collu |author4=Malin Celander |author5=Bill S.

DMDS can be produced by the oxidation of ], e.g. with ]:
:{{chem2|2 CH3SH + I2 → CH3SSCH3 + 2 HI}}

==Chemical reactions==
Important reactions include chlorination giving methanesulfenyl chloride ({{chem2|CH3SCl}}), methanesulfinyl chloride ({{chem2|CH3S(O)Cl}}),<ref>Irwin B. Douglass and Richard V. Norton "Methanesulfinyl Chloride" ''Organic Syntheses'', Coll. Vol. 5, p.709-712 (1973).</ref> and ] ({{chem2|CH3SO2Cl}}) as well as oxidation with ] or ] giving the ] methyl methanethiosulfinate ({{chem2|CH3S(O)SCH3}}).<ref>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1021/ja00819a033 | title = Chemistry of Alkyl Thiosulfinate Esters.

==Uses==
DMDS is used as a food additive in onion, garlic, cheese, meats, soups, savory flavors, and fruit flavors.<ref>, OSHA</ref> Industrially, DMDS is used in oil refineries as a sulfiding agent.<ref> {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110929015920/http://www.arkema-inc.com/index.cfm?pag=118 |date=2011-09-29 }}, Arkema, Inc.</ref> It is also an effective soil fumigant in agriculture, registered in many states in the U.S. as well as globally. In this capacity, It is an important alternative in replacing ], which is being phased out. However, it is less effective than the former. This pesticide is marketed as "Paladin" by ].<ref>{{Cite web |title=DMDS for agricultural soil fumigation |url=http://www.arkema.com/en/products/product-finder/range-viewer/DMDS-for-agricultural-soil-fumigation/ |publisher=Arkema |accessdate=2013-09-06}}</ref><ref>{{citation| publisher = New York State Department of Environmental Conservation | url = http://pmep.cce.cornell.edu/profiles/fumigant/dimethyl_disulfide/dimethyl_disulfide_reg_0312.pdf | title = Registration of Paladin and Paladin EC containing the new active ingredient dimethyl disulfide | date = March 9, 2012}}</ref>

===Industrial use===
DMDS is used to prepare catalysts for ], because of its high sulfur content and low decomposition temperature. Refineries utilize it instead of other sulfur spiking agents for catalyst sulfiding because it has more sulfur per pound than ] (DMS) or <ref></ref> Once injected to a hydrotreater or hydrocracker, It decomposes to form H<sub>2</sub>S. The H<sub>2</sub>S reacts with the metal oxides on the catalyst, converting them to the active metal sulfide form.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.reactor-resources.com/sulfiding-services/sulfiding-101.html|title= Reactor Resources}}</ref>

DMDS also works as an effective product for operators in the petrochemicals industry who must protect their steam-cracking coils against the formation of coke and carbon monoxide.

DMDS is utilized in the preparation of 4-(methylthio)phenol which is used in the production of various pesticides. DMDS and chlorine are reacted with borontrifluoride phenoxide to produce 4-(methylthio)phenol. ] and DMDS are blended with combustible hydrocarbon fuel gas to impart a gassy odor to the fuel gas.
