Description

9-Methylanthracene-D12 is a deuterated isotopologue of 9-Methylanthracene, where twelve hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium. This high-purity labeled compound is essential for advanced analytical and research applications requiring exceptional isotopic purity and stability. It is primarily utilized by researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, environmental, and material science sectors for use as an internal standard, tracer, or probe in spectroscopic and mass spectrometric studies.

Application

• Internal Standard for Quantitative Analysis: Used in Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) for the accurate quantification of anthracene derivatives in complex matrices.
• Metabolic and Environmental Tracer: Serves as a stable, non-radioactive tracer in studies of metabolic pathways, environmental fate, and degradation processes of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).
• Spectroscopic Probe: Employed in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and vibrational spectroscopy (IR/Raman) research to investigate molecular structure, dynamics, and interactions due to its distinct isotopic signature.
• Material Science Research: Used in the development and characterization of organic semiconductors, photoconductors, and luminescent materials where deuterated compounds can enhance stability and performance.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Acts as a critical reference material in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) studies for compounds with anthracene-based structures.
• Analytical Method Development: Essential for validating and calibrating analytical methods to ensure accuracy, precision, and regulatory compliance in testing laboratories.
