Description

Deuterium Chloride CAS NO 7698-05-7 is the deuterated isotopologue of hydrogen chloride, where the hydrogen atom is replaced by the stable isotope deuterium. This substitution makes it an essential reagent in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy for solvent preparation and as a tracer in mechanistic and kinetic studies. It is a critical material for research and development in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and advanced materials sectors, particularly for applications requiring isotopic labeling to track molecular pathways or enhance spectral analysis.

Application

• NMR Spectroscopy: Used for preparing deuterated NMR solvents and as a chemical shift reference.
• Isotopic Labeling: Serves as a deuterium source for synthesizing labeled compounds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research.
• Mechanistic Studies: Employed as a tracer in reaction mechanisms to elucidate pathways in catalysis and organic synthesis.
• Semiconductor Manufacturing: Used in etching and cleaning processes for silicon-based materials.
• Fundamental Research: Applied in physical chemistry for studying isotope effects on reaction rates and equilibria.
• Analytical Chemistry: Utilized as a reagent in mass spectrometry and other analytical techniques requiring deuterated standards.

Quality Control

Our Deuterium Chloride is produced and handled under stringent quality protocols to ensure high isotopic purity and chemical consistency. Each batch is analyzed to confirm deuterium enrichment and the absence of key impurities. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your critical research and process requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its gaseous and strong acid nature, cylinders must be stored in a cool, well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and metals. Ensure storage temperature does not exceed recommended cylinder specifications.
