作为以下反应的反应物： 非对映选择性还原前手性烯酮中间体；芳基卤化物的硼化；酮、酸、酯、酰胺和腈的还原；在对映体恶唑硼烷催化的不对称硼烷还原酮中，硼烷源对映体选择性的研究。作为以下合成反应的反应物：色酚衍生物作为CETP抑制剂治疗心血管疾病；通过对映选择性还原的烯丙醇；用于一锅法合成不对称双芳基的匹那溴硼烷 Diethyl sulfide forms 1:1 charge transfer complex with iodine. It undergoes photocatalytic degradation over TiO2 . It is commonly used as solvent for anhydrous mineral salts and in plating baths for coating metals with gold or silver. Diethyl sulfide was used to assess the quantification procedure for nine volatile sulfur compounds in complex gaseous samples by solid-phase microextraction.
