Description

2-Methylpropane-1-D1 CAS NO 50463-25-7 is a deuterated derivative of isobutane, specifically labeled with a deuterium atom at the 1-position. This isotopic labeling makes it a crucial tool in advanced research and analytical chemistry, where it serves as a stable, non-radioactive tracer. It is primarily sought by researchers and process developers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and materials science industries for applications in reaction mechanism elucidation, metabolic studies, and as an internal standard in spectroscopic analysis.

Application

• As a deuterated internal standard for quantitative analysis via Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.
• In mechanistic studies to trace reaction pathways and investigate kinetic isotope effects (KIE) in organic synthesis and catalysis.
• For the synthesis of more complex deuterium-labeled compounds used in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research and development.
• In materials science research, particularly in the study of polymers and other materials where deuterium labeling aids in structural analysis via neutron scattering techniques.
• As a tracer in environmental and metabolic fate studies to monitor the breakdown and transformation of chemical compounds.

Quality Control

Our 2-Methylpropane-1-D1 is produced and handled under strict quality protocols to ensure high isotopic and chemical purity for research applications. Each batch is analyzed to confirm identity, isotopic enrichment (D atom %), and purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for each lot are available upon request, providing full traceability and compliance with your internal quality standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its highly volatile nature, store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and open flames. For long-term stability, storage under an inert atmosphere in a sealed, pressure-rated container is recommended.
