Description

2-Methylpropyl-2-D1 Alcohol CAS NO 20440-13-5 is a deuterated derivative of isobutyl alcohol, where a hydrogen atom at the 2-position is replaced by a stable deuterium isotope. This isotopic labeling makes it a crucial tool in research and development, particularly for mechanistic studies and as an internal standard in analytical chemistry. It is primarily utilized by scientists and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors who require precise molecular tracking and high-purity chemical standards.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Used as a deuterated building block in the synthesis of isotopically labeled drug candidates for metabolism, pharmacokinetic (DMPK), and mechanistic studies.
• Analytical Chemistry: Serves as a high-purity internal standard or reference material in quantitative mass spectrometry (MS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and gas chromatography (GC) to ensure analytical accuracy.
• Agrochemical Development: Employed in the synthesis of deuterated pesticides or herbicides to study environmental fate, degradation pathways, and metabolic profiles.
• Organic Synthesis & Catalysis: Acts as a specialized reagent or solvent in deuterium-labeling reactions and in mechanistic investigations of catalytic processes.
• Material Science: Used in the development of novel polymers or organic electronic materials where isotopic substitution can modify physical properties for research purposes.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent: Can be utilized as a deuterated solvent component for specific NMR applications requiring unique chemical shift properties.

Quality Control

Our deuterated chemicals are produced and handled under strict quality protocols to ensure isotopic and chemical purity for sensitive research applications. Each batch of 2-Methylpropyl-2-D1 Alcohol is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing parameters such as isotopic enrichment (D atom %), chemical purity (by GC), and impurity profile. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable, and specifications can be tailored to meet the rigorous standards of pharmaceutical (ICH Q3) and analytical reference material industries.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept upright and sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and concentration changes. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and oxidizing agents.
