The structure of Dimethyl sulfide is H3C-S-CH3. It is produced naturally by some marine algae.
<u>Explanation:</u>
DMS or dimethyl sulfide is formed by using two methyl groups combined with one sulfur atom. It is an organosulphur compound with a structural formula H3C-S-CH3.
Most abundant biological sulfur compounds emitted to air and oceans by phytoplankton.
DMS is produced naturally by the waste of dimethyl sulphoxide which is disposed into the sewer causing environmental odor problems.
It is a flammable liquid that boils at 37 degrees celsius and a disagreeable smell produced from the cooking of certain vegetables also indicates bacterial contamination in the production of malt and brewing.
