Description

Benzoin-D10 is a deuterated analog of benzoin, where ten hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen. This isotopic labeling is critical for applications requiring high chemical stability and minimal background interference in analytical techniques. It is an essential material for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors who require precise molecular tools for kinetic studies, metabolic pathway tracing, and internal standards in mass spectrometry.

Application

• Internal Standard for Quantitative Analysis: Serves as a high-purity reference standard in Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) for the accurate quantification of benzoin and related compounds.
• Metabolic Research & Pharmacokinetics: Used as a stable isotope-labeled tracer to study the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) of pharmaceutical compounds in biological systems.
• Mechanistic Reaction Studies: Employed in reaction kinetics and mechanistic investigations where deuterium labeling helps elucidate pathways and intermediate structures.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Reagent: Functions as a useful deuterated reagent or shift reference in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.
• Advanced Material Synthesis: Acts as a specialized building block in the synthesis of deuterated polymers, liquid crystals, or organic electronic materials where isotopic purity affects performance.

Quality Control

Every batch of Benzoin-D10 is produced and analyzed under strict quality management protocols to ensure exceptional isotopic and chemical purity, which is paramount for its use as an analytical standard. Our quality control includes comprehensive testing via NMR, HPLC, and MS to verify deuterium incorporation and chemical identity. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, documenting purity, assay, and specific analytical results.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
