Description

Ethyl Acetate-13C2 CAS NO 84508-45-2 is a stable isotope-labeled analog of ethyl acetate, where both carbon atoms in the acetate moiety are the carbon-13 (13C) isotope. This compound is an essential tool in advanced analytical chemistry, providing an internal standard for precise quantification and metabolic pathway tracing. It is primarily required by research institutions, pharmaceutical developers, and analytical laboratories engaged in mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and metabolic studies.

Application

• Internal Standard for Quantitative Analysis: Used in Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) for accurate quantification of unlabeled ethyl acetate or related metabolites in complex matrices.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Serves as a tracer in biochemical and pharmacological research to study the metabolism and fate of acetate groups in biological systems.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Reference: Employed as a solvent or chemical shift reference in 13C NMR experiments due to its defined isotopic enrichment.
• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Critical in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) studies for labeling drug candidates or their metabolites.
• Environmental & Food Safety Testing: Enhances the accuracy of methods detecting ethyl acetate or its derivatives in environmental samples and food products.
• Synthesis of Labeled Compounds: Acts as a labeled building block for the synthesis of more complex 13C-labeled molecules for research.

Quality Control

Our Ethyl Acetate-13C2 is produced under controlled conditions to ensure high isotopic and chemical purity, meeting the stringent requirements of analytical and research applications. Each batch is characterized by advanced techniques including NMR, GC-MS, and IR spectroscopy. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are provided, detailing isotopic enrichment (atom % 13C), chemical purity, and specific analytical data. We adhere to a quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and traceability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and open flame. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are securely sealed when not in use. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability, although the product is stable at room temperature for shorter periods.
