Description

Sulfonmethane (also known as acetone diethylsulfone) was discovered as a hypnotic drug. Sulfonmethane was to be one of Bayer’s first profitable pharmaceutical products. It retained its popularity until the introduction of the more rapidly acting barbiturates rendered it obsolete. Now is used newer and safer sedatives.
