Description

1,2-Dimethoxy-D6-Benzene is a deuterated aromatic compound where all six hydrogen atoms on the benzene ring are replaced by deuterium, with two methoxy groups in the ortho positions. This high isotopic purity makes it an invaluable internal standard and tracer in advanced analytical chemistry, particularly for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and Mass Spectrometry (MS). It is essential for researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material science industries who require precise quantification and mechanistic studies without spectral interference from protonated solvents or analytes.

Application

• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Internal Standard: Used as a deuterated solvent or chemical shift reference in proton-decoupled NMR experiments.
• Mass Spectrometry (MS): Serves as a stable isotope-labeled internal standard for the accurate quantification of analogous non-deuterated compounds via LC-MS or GC-MS.
• Pharmaceutical Research & Metabolism Studies: Employed as a tracer to study drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and biochemical pathways.
• Organic Synthesis & Catalysis Research: Acts as a deuterated building block or probe molecule in reaction mechanism elucidation and catalyst development.
• Polymer & Material Science: Used in the synthesis and analysis of deuterated polymers for neutron scattering studies and specialized optical materials.
• Forensic & Environmental Analysis: Applied as a high-purity standard in trace analysis for complex matrices.

Quality Control

Every batch of our 1,2-Dimethoxy-D6-Benzene is produced and tested under strict quality management systems. We guarantee high chemical and isotopic purity, with comprehensive testing including NMR and MS analysis to confirm deuteration level and chemical identity. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, documenting purity, assay, and solvent residue levels. Our quality commitment ensures reliability for your most sensitive research and analytical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids and oxidizing agents. For long-term storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) is recommended to maintain isotopic integrity.
