Description

Hydrocyanic Acid-D CAS NO 3017-23-0 is a deuterated isotopologue of hydrocyanic acid, where one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium. This specialized compound is critical for advanced research and analytical applications where isotopic labeling is required to study reaction mechanisms, metabolic pathways, or to serve as an internal standard. It is primarily utilized by analytical laboratories, research institutions, and pharmaceutical developers engaged in mass spectrometry, NMR spectroscopy, and kinetic isotope effect studies.

Application

• As a deuterated internal standard for the precise quantification of hydrocyanic acid or related cyanides in complex matrices using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) or Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS).
• In NMR spectroscopy as a tracer or reference compound to elucidate molecular structures and investigate chemical reaction pathways.
• For research into kinetic isotope effects (KIE) to understand the detailed mechanisms of chemical and biochemical reactions involving cyanide transfer.
• In the development and validation of analytical methods within environmental, forensic, and industrial hygiene testing.
• As a precursor or labeled building block in the synthesis of more complex deuterated compounds for pharmaceutical and chemical research.
