Description

n-Heptane-D16 is a fully deuterated isotopologue of n-heptane, where all sixteen hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium. This high-purity, isotopically labeled compound is essential for applications requiring minimal spectral interference from proton signals, serving as a critical internal standard and solvent in advanced analytical techniques. It is primarily utilized by research scientists and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and academic sectors for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.

Application

• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent: An ideal deuterated solvent for proton NMR, providing a clean background for analyzing organic compounds.
• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry: Used as a quantitative reference standard in GC-MS and LC-MS due to its distinct mass shift.
• Chemical Reaction Studies: Employed in kinetic isotope effect (KIE) studies and mechanistic investigations in synthetic chemistry.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Facilitates the structural elucidation and purity assessment of drug candidates and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Polymer Science: Acts as a solvent in the analysis and characterization of polymers and copolymers.
• Metabolomics and Biomarker Discovery: Used in sample preparation and as a standard in complex biological mixture analysis.
