Description

Dichloroacetic Acid-D2 CAS NO 63403-57-6 is a deuterated isotopologue of dichloroacetic acid, where two hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium. This isotopic labeling is critical for applications requiring precise tracking of molecular pathways and metabolic studies, offering enhanced stability and distinct spectroscopic properties. It is an essential reagent for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and analytical chemistry sectors, particularly for use as an internal standard in mass spectrometry and in the synthesis of labeled compounds for drug discovery and development.

Application

• Internal standard for quantitative analysis via Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS).
• Precursor in the synthesis of deuterium-labeled pharmaceutical intermediates and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Metabolic pathway tracing and mechanistic studies in biochemical and pharmacological research.
• Use in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy as a solvent or analyte due to its distinct spectral properties.
• Stable isotope labeling in agrochemical research for environmental fate and metabolism studies.
• Chemical reference standard for quality control and method validation in analytical laboratories.

Quality Control

Our Dichloroacetic Acid-D2 is produced under stringent conditions to ensure high isotopic and chemical purity, meeting the exacting requirements of research and industrial applications. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including NMR and mass spectrometry, to confirm deuterium incorporation and chemical identity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, isotopic enrichment, and impurity profiles are provided to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents. Due to its nature as a strong acid/organic solvent, appropriate secondary containment is recommended. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C.
