Description

Dibromomethane-D2 is a deuterated isotopologue of dibromomethane, where two hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium atoms, significantly altering its spectroscopic and physical properties. This deuteration is critical for applications requiring reduced interference from proton signals or enhanced stability in specific chemical environments. It is an essential reagent for researchers and manufacturers in the fields of NMR spectroscopy, organic synthesis, and pharmaceutical development, where precise isotopic labeling is necessary.

Application

• NMR Spectroscopy & Analytical Standards: Used as an internal standard or solvent in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy due to its distinct deuterium signal and reduced proton background.
• Deuterated Building Block in Organic Synthesis: Serves as a key reagent for introducing deuterium labels into complex organic molecules and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) for metabolic and pharmacokinetic studies.
• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Employed in the synthesis of deuterated drug candidates to explore isotope effects on drug metabolism, efficacy, and safety profiles.
• Material Science Research: Utilized in the development of specialized polymers and materials where deuterium incorporation modifies physical properties like thermal stability or neutron scattering characteristics.
• Chemical Mechanism Elucidation: Acts as a tracer in reaction mechanism studies to track the pathway of specific atoms during chemical transformations.

Quality Control

Our Dibromomethane-D2 is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure high isotopic purity and chemical integrity. Each batch is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including NMR, GC-MS, and IR spectroscopy to confirm deuteration level and chemical purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic enrichment (D-atom %), chemical purity, and relevant physical parameters is provided with every shipment to support your research and compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong acids and bases. Recommended storage temperature is between 2°C and 8°C to maintain optimal stability, although short-term storage at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) is acceptable. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption and volatilization.
