Description

Diiodomethane (13C) is a stable isotope-labeled analog of diiodomethane, where the central carbon atom is the carbon-13 isotope. This compound is essential for advanced research and analytical applications requiring isotopic tracing and internal standards. It is primarily utilized by scientists and manufacturers in the fields of pharmaceutical development, metabolic research, and analytical chemistry for precise quantification and mechanistic studies.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Used as a quantitative reference standard in GC-MS and LC-MS analyses to ensure accuracy and reproducibility in complex sample matrices.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Employed in 13C NMR spectroscopy and isotope ratio mass spectrometry to track and elucidate biochemical pathways and reaction mechanisms.
• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Serves as a labeled precursor or intermediate in the synthesis of isotopically labeled drug candidates and metabolites for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies.
• Environmental and Geochemical Analysis: Applied in specialized isotopic studies to understand environmental processes, pollutant degradation, and geological dating.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Acts as a building block for the preparation of other 13C-labeled organic compounds and fine chemicals.
