Description

1,4-Di(Hydroxymethyl)Benzene-D4 is a deuterated derivative of 1,4-bis(hydroxymethyl)benzene, where four hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, a stable hydrogen isotope. This deuteration is critical for applications requiring enhanced molecular stability, reduced background interference, and precise spectroscopic analysis. It serves as a valuable building block and analytical standard in advanced research and development, particularly for pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material science applications where isotopic labeling is essential.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research: Used as a deuterated intermediate or internal standard in the synthesis and metabolic studies of new drug candidates (e.g., deuterated active pharmaceutical ingredients - APIs).
• Analytical Chemistry: Serves as a crucial standard for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and Mass Spectrometry (MS) to facilitate accurate quantification and structural elucidation.
• Agrochemical Development: Employed in the research of novel, isotopically-labeled pesticides and herbicides to study environmental fate and metabolic pathways.
• Polymer & Material Science: Acts as a monomer or cross-linking agent in the development of specialized polymers, where deuterium incorporation modifies physical properties for research purposes.
• Organic Synthesis: Functions as a versatile, labeled synthon for constructing complex organic molecules in academic and industrial R&D settings.

Quality Control

Our deuterated chemicals are produced and handled under strict quality protocols to ensure isotopic purity and chemical integrity. Each batch of 1,4-Di(Hydroxymethyl)Benzene-D4 is characterized using advanced analytical techniques, including NMR and MS, to confirm deuteration level and chemical purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic enrichment (e.g., D-atom %), chemical purity, and identification data is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep the container tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere if necessary to maintain stability.
