Description

Cyanoguanidine-15N4 is a stable isotope-labeled analog of cyanoguanidine, where all four nitrogen atoms are the 15N isotope. This compound is essential for advanced research and analytical applications requiring precise isotopic tracing and quantification. It is primarily utilized by scientists and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and analytical chemistry sectors for use as an internal standard, a tracer in metabolic studies, and in the synthesis of labeled compounds for mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy.

Application

• Internal standard for the quantitative analysis of cyanoguanidine and related compounds via Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS).
• Tracer in metabolic pathway and pharmacokinetic studies within pharmaceutical research and development.
• Precursor for the synthesis of nitrogen-15 labeled biguanides, melamine, or other guanidine derivatives.
• Critical reagent in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy for structural elucidation and mechanistic studies.
• Use in environmental fate studies to track the degradation and transformation of cyanoguanidine-based agrochemicals.
• Isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) to ensure high accuracy and precision in analytical measurements.
