Description

Pivalaldehyde-D9 is a deuterated isotopologue of pivalaldehyde, where nine hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium, offering a high isotopic purity essential for advanced research and analytical applications. This compound is a critical stable-isotope-labeled building block, providing a non-radioactive tracer for mechanistic studies, metabolic pathway elucidation, and as an internal standard for precise quantitative mass spectrometry. It is primarily utilized by researchers and process chemists in pharmaceutical development, agrochemical research, and advanced material science where deuterium labeling is required to track molecular behavior.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Used as a deuterated synthon in the preparation of isotopically labeled active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) for drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) studies.
• Mass Spectrometry Internal Standard: Serves as a high-purity internal standard for Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS), enabling accurate quantification in complex matrices.
• Mechanistic & Metabolic Tracing: Acts as a stable, non-radioactive tracer to investigate chemical reaction mechanisms and metabolic pathways in biological systems.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent & Reagent: Employed in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy as a specialty reagent or in deuterated solvent systems for structural analysis.
• Material Science Research: Utilized in the synthesis of deuterated polymers or organic electronic materials to study structure-property relationships and enhance performance stability.
• Agrochemical Development: Incorporated into the synthesis of labeled pesticide or herbicide analogs for environmental fate and residue analysis studies.

Quality Control

Our Pivalaldehyde-D9 is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure exceptional isotopic and chemical purity, meeting the stringent requirements of research and analytical applications. Each batch is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as isotopic purity (Atom % D), chemical purity (by GC or NMR), and impurity profile. We adhere to rigorous in-house quality standards and can provide material tailored to specific customer specifications upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, this material should be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at recommended temperatures between 2°C and 8°C. The storage area should be cool, well-ventilated, and away from sources of ignition and incompatible materials.
