Description

n-Hexyl--D5 Alcohol CAS NO 64118-18-9 is a deuterium-labeled analog of n-hexanol, where five hydrogen atoms are replaced with the stable isotope deuterium. This isotopic labeling is critical for applications requiring precise tracking and analysis, as it provides a distinct molecular signature without altering the fundamental chemical behavior. It is an essential tool for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors who require high-purity, isotopically enriched compounds for analytical and synthetic purposes.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Used as a quantitative reference standard in GC-MS and LC-MS analysis for accurate measurement of n-hexanol and related compounds in complex matrices.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Employed in pharmacokinetic and drug metabolism studies to track the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) of hexanol derivatives.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Reagent: Serves as a deuterated solvent or a labeled reagent in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to simplify spectra and study reaction mechanisms.
• Synthesis of Labeled Compounds: Acts as a key building block for the synthesis of more complex deuterium-labeled fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and organic intermediates.
• Polymer Science Research: Utilized in studies of polymer plasticizers, additives, and degradation pathways where isotopic labeling helps monitor specific interactions.
• Environmental Fate Studies: Applied in research to understand the environmental breakdown and transport of alcohol-based compounds.
