Dichloromethane (DCM)—or methylene chloride—is an organic compound with the formula CH2Cl2. This colorless volatile liquid with a moderately sweet aroma is widely used as a solvent. Although it is not miscible with water it is miscible with many organic solvents. One of the most well-known applications of dichloromethane is in the drinking bird heat engine.
