Description

2-(2-Hydroxyethoxy) Ethanol-D8 is a deuterated analog of diethylene glycol, where eight hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium. This isotopic labeling is critical for applications requiring high molecular specificity and minimal background interference, such as advanced analytical techniques. It is an essential material for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and life science sectors who require stable isotope-labeled compounds for internal standards, metabolic studies, and NMR spectroscopy.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Used as a quantitative reference standard in LC-MS and GC-MS analysis for accurate measurement of diethylene glycol and related compounds.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Reagent: Serves as a deuterated solvent or a labeled precursor in nuclear magnetic resonance studies to elucidate molecular structure and dynamics.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Employed in pharmaceutical and biochemical research to track the metabolic fate of compounds using isotope tracing techniques.
• Pharmaceutical Impurity Profiling: Acts as a critical standard in the identification and quantification of process-related impurities and degradants in drug substances.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Utilized as a building block in the synthesis of more complex deuterated molecules for research and development.
• Polymer Science Research: Applied in studies of polymerization mechanisms and kinetics where isotopic labeling provides unique insights.
