Description

Phenylmethanol-D CAS NO 14915-25-4 is a deuterated form of benzyl alcohol, where one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen. This isotopic labeling is critical for advanced analytical and research applications, providing a non-radioactive tracer with distinct spectroscopic properties. It is an essential reagent for scientists and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material science industries who require precise molecular tracking, metabolic studies, or internal standards for mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy.

Application

• Internal Standard for Analytical Chemistry: Used as a quantitative internal standard in GC-MS and LC-MS analyses for accurate measurement of benzyl alcohol and related compounds.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Serves as a deuterium-labeled tracer in pharmaceutical and biochemical research to study drug metabolism and degradation pathways.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Reagent: Employed as a solvent or reagent in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies, where its distinct spectral signature avoids signal interference.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Acts as a labeled building block in the synthesis of deuterated active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) for improved pharmacokinetic profiles.
• Polymer & Material Science Research: Utilized in the development and analysis of specialty polymers and materials where deuterium incorporation is required for structural investigation.
• Agrochemical Research: Applied in the study of environmental fate, metabolism, and residue analysis of pesticides and herbicides.

Quality Control

Our Phenylmethanol-D is produced under controlled conditions to ensure high isotopic and chemical purity, meeting the stringent requirements of research and analytical applications. Each batch is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as isotopic purity (D atom %), chemical purity by GC or HPLC, and identity confirmation by NMR and/or IR spectroscopy. We adhere to a rigorous quality management system, and specifications can be tailored to meet specific project needs upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, prolonged exposure to light should be avoided.
