Description

Dichlorodimethyl-D6-Silane is a deuterated organosilicon compound, specifically a perdeuterated analog of dichlorodimethylsilane. This high-purity isotopically labeled reagent is critical for applications requiring minimal interference from proton signals, such as advanced NMR spectroscopy and mechanistic studies. It serves as a fundamental building block in the synthesis of deuterium-labeled silicones, siloxanes, and other specialty materials for the electronics, pharmaceutical, and advanced materials research sectors.

Application

• NMR Spectroscopy & Analytical Standards: Used as an internal standard or chemical shift reference in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy due to its deuterium labeling.
• Deuterated Silicone Synthesis: Acts as a key precursor for the production of deuterium-labeled polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) and other silicone polymers for research and specialized applications.
• Surface Modification & Silylation: Employed in surface chemistry to introduce deuterium-labeled dimethylchlorosilyl groups onto substrates for tracing and analysis in interfacial studies.
• Pharmaceutical & Metabolic Research: Utilized in the synthesis of deuterated analogs of drug candidates or biomarkers for mass spectrometry and pharmacokinetic studies.
• Semiconductor & Electronics Manufacturing: Serves as a deuterium source or precursor in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes for thin-film deposition and surface passivation.
• Mechanistic Organic Chemistry Studies: Provides a deuterium tracer for investigating reaction mechanisms, kinetics, and isotopic effects in organosilicon chemistry.

Quality Control

Our Dichlorodimethyl-D6-Silane is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure high isotopic and chemical purity, essential for sensitive research applications. Each batch is analyzed using advanced techniques including NMR, GC-MS, and FTIR to confirm identity, isotopic enrichment (typically ≥98 atom % D), and chemical purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). This compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and highly volatile. Containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) to prevent degradation from moisture and to minimize evaporation. Keep away from strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents.
