ACETOPHENONE-13C8

Description:

Acetophenone-13C8 is a labeled compound used primarily in research and analytical applications, particularly in studies involving isotopic labeling. It is a derivative of acetophenone, which is an aromatic ketone characterized by a phenyl group attached to a carbonyl group (C=O). The "13C8" designation indicates that the compound contains eight carbon atoms that are isotopically labeled with carbon-13, a stable isotope of carbon. This labeling allows for enhanced detection and analysis in various spectroscopic techniques, such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Acetophenone itself is a colorless liquid with a sweet, floral odor, and it is commonly used as a solvent, flavoring agent, and in the synthesis of other organic compounds. The presence of the carbon-13 isotope does not significantly alter the physical properties of the compound, but it provides valuable information in metabolic studies and tracer experiments. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling acetophenone-13C8, including the use of appropriate personal protective equipment.
