Description

Bis(2-Chloroethoxy)-D8-Methane is a deuterated analog of bis(2-chloroethyl) ether, where eight hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen. This deuteration makes it a critical internal standard and reference material for analytical methods, particularly in mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, ensuring precise quantification and traceability. It is primarily needed by research laboratories, pharmaceutical developers, and environmental testing facilities engaged in advanced chemical analysis, metabolic studies, and the development of deuterated compounds.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Essential for accurate quantitative analysis in GC-MS and LC-MS, correcting for instrument variability and sample preparation losses.
• NMR Spectroscopy Reference: Serves as a deuterated solvent shift reference or a non-interfering standard in complex mixture analysis.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Used in pharmaceutical and biochemical research to track the fate of molecules and study reaction mechanisms using deuterium labeling.
• Environmental Analysis: Employed as a recovery standard in the detection and quantification of its non-deuterated counterpart or related chlorinated ethers in environmental samples.
• Deuterated Compound Synthesis: Acts as a key building block or precursor for the synthesis of more complex deuterated chemicals for research purposes.
• Quality Control & Method Development: Critical for developing and validating sensitive analytical methods in regulatory and quality assurance laboratories.
