Description

Bromoethane-D5 is a deuterium-labeled analog of bromoethane, where five hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium atoms, resulting in a molecular formula of C2D5Br. This isotopic labeling is critical for applications requiring precise molecular tracking and reduced signal interference in spectroscopic analysis. It is an essential reagent for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and analytical chemistry sectors who require high-purity, isotopically enriched building blocks for synthesis and metabolic studies.

Application

• Internal Standard for Analytical Chemistry: Used as a stable, isotopically labeled internal standard in Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) for the accurate quantification of bromoethane and related compounds.
• Deuterated Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a key deuterated synthon in the research and development of novel Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs), where deuterium incorporation can alter metabolic pathways and improve drug profiles.
• Mechanistic & Metabolic Studies: Employed in tracer studies to elucidate reaction mechanisms, metabolic pathways, and environmental fate of ethylating agents without interference from the natural abundance isotope.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Reagent: Utilized in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy as a deuterated solvent additive or a specific reagent to aid in structural elucidation and kinetic studies.
• Agrochemical Research: Applied in the synthesis of deuterium-labeled pesticides and herbicides for environmental monitoring, residue analysis, and degradation studies.
• Material Science Research: Used in the surface modification and synthesis of specialized polymers and organic electronic materials where deuterium labeling is required for analysis.

Quality Control

Every batch of Bromoethane-D5 is produced and analyzed under strict quality management protocols to ensure exceptional isotopic and chemical purity, which is paramount for sensitive analytical and synthetic applications. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing, including comprehensive spectroscopic analysis, to ensure compliance with exacting customer and research standards. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, documenting key parameters such as isotopic purity (Atom % D), chemical purity, and identity confirmation.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and strong oxidizing agents. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed and upright to prevent leakage and concentration of vapors. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C to maximize stability.
