Description

Styrene Oxide-D8, 97+ Atom % D is a deuterated analog of styrene oxide, where eight hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium, achieving a high isotopic enrichment of 97 atom percent D or greater. This high level of deuteration makes it an essential internal standard and tracer in advanced analytical chemistry, particularly for mass spectrometry, enabling precise quantification and metabolic pathway studies. It is a critical material for researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and environmental analysis sectors who require definitive methods for tracking and analyzing styrene oxide and its derivatives.

Application

• Internal Standard for GC/MS and LC-MS Analysis: Primary use as a quantitative reference standard for the accurate measurement of non-deuterated styrene oxide in complex matrices.
• Metabolic and Pharmacokinetic Studies: Tracer for investigating the biotransformation, distribution, and excretion of styrene oxide in biological systems.
• Environmental Monitoring: Used in method development for detecting and quantifying trace levels of styrene oxide in air, water, and soil samples.
• Polymer Chemistry Research: Deuterium labeling studies to understand reaction mechanisms, polymer chain dynamics, and degradation pathways.
• Toxicology and Safety Assessment: Employed in studies to elucidate the metabolic activation and detoxification pathways of styrene, a precursor to the oxide.
• Stable Isotope Labeling: Serves as a building block for the synthesis of more complex deuterated compounds for research.
