Description

2-Heptanone-1,1,1,3,3-D5 is a deuterated isotopologue of 2-heptanone, a methyl ketone, where five hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium. This deuteration makes it an invaluable internal standard and tracer in quantitative analytical chemistry, particularly for mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. It is essential for researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and environmental sectors who require high-purity, isotopically labeled compounds for precise method development and accurate quantification.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Used as a stable, non-interfering reference compound in GC-MS and LC-MS analyses for the accurate quantification of native 2-heptanone and related compounds.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Serves as a deuterium-labeled tracer in metabolic studies within pharmaceutical and biochemical research to elucidate reaction mechanisms and pathways.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Reference: Employed as a chemical shift reference or solvent in deuterated form for NMR experiments, providing a stable signal devoid of proton interference.
• Pharmaceutical Impurity Profiling: Critical for developing and validating analytical methods to identify and quantify impurities and degradants in active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Environmental Analysis: Applied in the detection and measurement of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air, water, and soil samples.
• Flavor and Fragrance Research: Used in analytical studies to authenticate and quantify flavor components, given 2-heptanone's natural occurrence.
• Polymer and Material Science: Acts as a labeled reagent or plasticizer intermediate in research involving polymer kinetics and degradation studies.

Quality Control

Every batch of 2-Heptanone-1,1,1,3,3-D5 is produced and analyzed under strict quality management protocols. We guarantee high chemical and isotopic purity, with specifications typically meeting or exceeding the requirements for analytical reference standards. Comprehensive testing includes assay by GC, isotopic enrichment by MS or NMR, and verification of chemical identity. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance with your research or quality control standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and potential concentration changes. Keep away from strong bases and incompatible materials.
