acetic-13C2 acid

Description:

Acetic-13C2 acid, also known as deuterated acetic acid, is a stable isotopic variant of acetic acid where both carbon atoms are replaced with their heavier isotope, carbon-13. This compound retains the fundamental characteristics of acetic acid, including its molecular formula, which is C2H4O2, but with the specific isotopic labeling. Acetic-13C2 acid is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor, and it is miscible with water, ethanol, and ether. It is commonly used in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy as a solvent and reference standard due to its distinct spectral properties. The presence of carbon-13 allows for enhanced resolution in NMR studies, making it valuable in various research applications, including metabolic studies and tracer experiments. Additionally, it can serve as a precursor in organic synthesis and is utilized in the production of labeled compounds for pharmaceutical research. As with other forms of acetic acid, it exhibits acidic properties, contributing to its reactivity in chemical reactions.

Controlled Product

CAS: 16651-47-1

Acetic acid-13C2 is a non-natural monocarboxylic acid that is used in the synthesis of erythromycin and other antibiotics. Acetic acid-13C2 is generated by alkylation of acetic acid with acetyl chloride. This two-step process involves the formation of an ester bond between the carboxyl group and the terminal methyl group on acetic acid, followed by addition of 13C2 to the methyl group. The resulting molecule has three chiral centers and six stereogenic centers. The product can be separated into its four stereoisomers through chromatography or crystallization. These four isomers have different biological activities, which may be due to their structural differences.
