Description

n-Hexane-D14 is a deuterated analog of n-hexane, where all hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, a stable hydrogen isotope. This high isotopic purity makes it an essential internal standard and solvent in advanced analytical techniques like Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. It is primarily used by researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and academic sectors for precise quantitative analysis and mechanistic studies.

Application

• NMR Spectroscopy: Used as a deuterated solvent for analyzing organic compounds, providing a non-interfering signal lock and background.
• Mass Spectrometry: Serves as a critical internal standard for the accurate quantification of hydrocarbons and other volatile compounds.
• Chemical Reaction Studies: Employed in kinetic isotope effect (KIE) studies to investigate reaction mechanisms and pathways.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Utilized in the analysis of drug metabolites and in stability testing where isotopic labeling is required.
• Polymer Science: Acts as a solvent in the analysis of polymer structures and compositions using spectroscopic methods.
• Environmental Analysis: Applied as a standard in trace analysis of petroleum hydrocarbons and environmental contaminants.
