Methyl-D3 3-Oxobutanoate, with the CAS number 107694-22-4, is a deuterated derivative of 3-oxobutanoate, which is an important compound in organic chemistry and biochemistry. This substance features a methyl ester functional group, contributing to its solubility in organic solvents. The presence of deuterium (D3) indicates that three hydrogen atoms in the molecule are replaced with deuterium isotopes, which can be useful in various applications, including NMR spectroscopy and metabolic studies. Methyl-D3 3-Oxobutanoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid, exhibiting a characteristic ester odor. It is used in research settings, particularly in studies involving metabolic pathways and tracer studies due to its isotopic labeling. The compound is generally stable under standard conditions but should be handled with care, following appropriate safety protocols, as with all chemical substances. Its reactivity can be influenced by the presence of functional groups, making it a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis.
