Description

Lithium-6Li Deuteroxide Deuterate is a specialized isotopically labeled lithium compound, where the lithium is enriched with the 6Li isotope and the hydroxide ion is deuterated. This product is critical for applications requiring precise isotopic labeling and serves as a key precursor in the synthesis of deuterated and 6Li-labeled compounds. It is primarily utilized by researchers and manufacturers in advanced nuclear, spectroscopic, and pharmaceutical development sectors where isotopic purity and chemical specificity are paramount.

Application

• Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy: As a base for preparing deuterated solvents and reagents to eliminate proton interference in high-resolution NMR studies.
• Neutron Scattering & Absorption: Utilizing the high neutron capture cross-section of 6Li for neutron detection materials, shielding, and fundamental physics research.
• Deuterated Compound Synthesis: Acting as a fundamental reagent for introducing deuterium and 6Li labels into organic and inorganic molecules for kinetic and metabolic studies.
• Lithium-Ion Battery Research: Used in the development and analysis of next-generation electrolytes and electrode materials where isotopic tracing is necessary.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Employed in the synthesis of isotopically labeled drug candidates for mass spectrometry-based pharmacokinetic and metabolic pathway analysis.
• Catalysis Research: Serving as a base in deuterated form for mechanistic studies in organometallic and heterogeneous catalysis.

Quality Control

Our Lithium-6Li Deuteroxide Deuterate is produced and handled under strict quality protocols. Each batch is characterized to ensure high isotopic and chemical purity, with key parameters including isotopic enrichment (e.g., 6Li atom %), chemical assay, and deuterium content verified. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing these specifications are provided and available upon request to support your research and quality assurance requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, this material must be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C to maximize stability. Handle and open containers only in a controlled, dry environment to prevent decomposition.
