Description

Isoamyl Nitrite-15N is a stable isotope-labeled analog of isoamyl nitrite, where the nitrogen atom is enriched with the 15N isotope. This compound is a critical reagent in advanced analytical chemistry and life sciences research, enabling precise metabolic and mechanistic studies through Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, pharmaceutical R&D departments, and analytical laboratories involved in tracer studies, reaction pathway elucidation, and the development of novel diagnostic agents.

Application

• Isotopic Tracer in Metabolic Studies: Used to track nitrogen incorporation and metabolic pathways in biological systems.
• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry: Serves as a high-purity reference standard for the accurate quantification of isoamyl nitrite and related compounds in GC-MS or LC-MS analyses.
• NMR Spectroscopy Reagent: Provides a non-radioactive, stable isotopic label for structural determination and dynamic studies of molecules in solution.
• Mechanistic Organic Chemistry Research: Employed in studies to elucidate reaction mechanisms, particularly nitrosation and nitration reactions.
• Pharmaceutical R&D: Used in the development and testing of new drug candidates where labeled nitrite compounds are required.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Acts as a specialized building block for the synthesis of other 15N-labeled organic compounds.

Quality Control

Every batch of Isoamyl Nitrite-15N CAS NO 120670-20-4 is manufactured and analyzed under strict quality protocols to ensure exceptional isotopic and chemical purity, critical for sensitive research applications. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic enrichment (Atom % 15N), chemical purity by GC and/or HPLC, and identity confirmation by NMR and IR spectroscopy. Our quality system is designed to meet the rigorous standards of analytical and research laboratories.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place, ideally at 2-8°C (refrigerated) to minimize volatility and degradation. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
