Description

2,6-Dinitrotoluene-Alpha,Alpha,α-D3 is a deuterium-labeled isotopologue of 2,6-dinitrotoluene, a key compound in chemical research and development. This labeled standard is essential for providing an internal reference in quantitative analytical techniques, ensuring precise and accurate measurement of its non-labeled counterpart. It is primarily required by analytical laboratories, environmental testing facilities, and pharmaceutical R&D departments engaged in method development, metabolism studies, and trace analysis.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Used as a quantitative reference in GC-MS or LC-MS analysis for the accurate determination of 2,6-dinitrotoluene in complex matrices.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Employed in pharmaceutical and toxicological research to study the metabolic fate and degradation pathways of nitroaromatic compounds.
• Environmental Analysis: Serves as a critical standard in the detection and quantification of nitroaromatic pollutants, such as those from explosives or industrial waste, in soil and water samples.
• Method Development & Validation: Essential for developing, calibrating, and validating sensitive analytical methods in compliance with regulatory guidelines.
• Isotope Dilution Analysis: Provides high accuracy in quantifying trace levels of dinitrotoluene isomers in various samples, correcting for losses during sample preparation.
• Quality Control & Assurance: Used in industrial settings to monitor and control the purity of dinitrotoluene mixtures and related chemical products.
