Description

n-Heptylbenzene-D20 is a deuterated organic compound where all twenty hydrogen atoms in the heptyl side chain are replaced with deuterium. This high isotopic purity makes it an essential internal standard and tracer in advanced analytical chemistry and metabolic research. It is primarily utilized by researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material science industries for precise quantification and mechanistic studies using techniques like NMR and mass spectrometry.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Used for the accurate quantification of heptylbenzene and related alkylbenzenes in complex matrices like environmental samples, petroleum fractions, and biological fluids.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Tracer: Serves as a deuterated solvent or a non-interfering tracer in nuclear magnetic resonance studies to elucidate molecular structures and reaction pathways.
• Metabolic Pathway Research: Employed in pharmaceutical and biochemical research to track the fate of alkylbenzene derivatives in in vitro and in vivo metabolic studies.
• Polymer & Material Science: Acts as a deuterated monomer or additive in the synthesis and analysis of specialty polymers, enabling detailed study of polymer dynamics and morphology.
• Environmental Analysis: Functions as a stable isotope-labeled standard for tracing the environmental degradation and bioaccumulation of aromatic hydrocarbons.
• Organic Synthesis Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of more complex deuterated compounds for research in catalysis and synthetic chemistry.
