Description

Propionaldehyde-2,2-D2 CAS NO 39493-21-5 is a deuterated derivative of propionaldehyde, where two hydrogen atoms at the 2-position are replaced with stable deuterium isotopes. This isotopic labeling is critical for applications requiring precise molecular tracking and reduced metabolic interference. It is an essential building block for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors who require high-purity, isotopically labeled intermediates.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Used as a deuterated synthon in the synthesis of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) for drug discovery, metabolic studies, and the development of deuterated drugs with improved pharmacokinetic profiles.
• Analytical Chemistry & Mass Spectrometry: Serves as an internal standard or tracer in quantitative GC-MS and LC-MS analyses, enabling accurate measurement and detection of propionaldehyde and its metabolites in complex matrices.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Employed in the development of novel, isotopically labeled pesticides and herbicides for environmental fate studies and residue analysis.
• Organic Synthesis & Catalysis Research: Acts as a specialized reagent in mechanistic studies and asymmetric synthesis, where deuterium labeling helps elucidate reaction pathways.
• Material Science: Utilized in the synthesis of deuterated polymers or specialty chemicals where specific isotopic content is required to alter material properties.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Reagent: Functions as a deuterated solvent or a reagent for NMR spectroscopy to avoid signal interference from protons.

Quality Control

Every batch of Propionaldehyde-2,2-D2 is produced and analyzed under strict quality management protocols. We ensure high chemical and isotopic purity through advanced analytical techniques including NMR, GC-MS, and IR spectroscopy. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, isotopic enrichment, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee consistency and traceability for your critical research and production needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile nature, keep containers tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere when not in use. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C to maximize stability.
