Description

Iodoethane-13C2 is a stable isotope-labeled analog of iodoethane, where two carbon atoms are replaced with the carbon-13 isotope. This compound is essential for advanced analytical and synthetic chemistry, providing a non-radioactive tracer for precise metabolic, environmental, and mechanistic studies. It is primarily utilized by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and academic sectors who require high-purity labeled compounds for mass spectrometry, NMR spectroscopy, and reaction pathway elucidation.

Application

• As an internal standard or tracer in quantitative mass spectrometry (GC-MS, LC-MS) for accurate compound quantification.
• For NMR spectroscopy studies, leveraging the 13C label to track molecular structures and reaction mechanisms.
• In the synthesis of isotope-labeled pharmaceutical intermediates for drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) research.
• As a building block in organic and medicinal chemistry for introducing the ethyl-13C2 group into target molecules.
• For environmental fate studies, tracing the degradation and transformation pathways of chemical compounds.
• In academic and industrial R&D focused on reaction kinetics and catalytic processes.
