Description

n-Pentadecyl-D31 Alcohol is a fully deuterated, high-purity fatty alcohol where all hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium (D). This compound matters for its role as a critical internal standard and tracer in advanced analytical chemistry and metabolic research, providing unmatched isotopic purity and signal clarity. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material science industries who require precise isotopic labeling for NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and kinetic studies.

Application

• NMR Spectroscopy Internal Standard: Used as a quantitative reference and chemical shift standard in deuterated NMR solvents due to its high isotopic purity.
• Mass Spectrometry & Metabolic Tracing: Serves as a stable isotope-labeled tracer in LC-MS and GC-MS to study lipid metabolism, drug pathways, and biochemical mechanisms.
• Pharmaceutical R&D: Employed in the development and analysis of deuterated drug compounds, where it acts as a building block or analytical standard.
• Polymer & Material Science: Used in research involving deuterated polymers and surfactants to study molecular structure and dynamics via neutron scattering techniques.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Acts as a specialized precursor for synthesizing other deuterated fine chemicals and labeled compounds.
• Quality Control & Reference Material: Provides a certified reference material for calibrating analytical instruments and validating methods in contract research and testing laboratories.
