Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and dimethyl sulfone (DMSO{sub 2}) are believed to be intermediates in the marine atmospheric oxidation pathway of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) to SO{sub 2} and sulfate. This report presents for the first time, an analytical method for the determination of trace quantities of DMSO and DMSO{sub 2} in air. It describes in detail the analytical method that was only briefly mentioned in the original geochemical report of DMSO and DMSO{sub 2} in marine air.
