Description:Sodium formate-D, with the CAS number 3996-15-4, is the deuterated form of sodium formate, a sodium salt of formic acid. It is characterized by the presence of deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen, which replaces the hydrogen atoms in the formate ion. This substitution makes sodium formate-D particularly useful in various scientific applications, including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, where it serves as a solvent or reference standard due to its unique spectral properties. Sodium formate-D is typically a white, crystalline solid that is soluble in water, exhibiting similar solubility characteristics to its non-deuterated counterpart. Its chemical formula is C2H3DNaO2, and it retains the properties of formate salts, such as acting as a buffering agent and participating in various chemical reactions. The presence of deuterium can also influence reaction kinetics and mechanisms, making it valuable in studies of reaction pathways and dynamics. Overall, sodium formate-D is a versatile compound in both analytical and synthetic chemistry.
