FAQ
What is DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE-D6 used for?
DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE-D6 is commonly used as a solvent
in NMR spectroscopy. It is used to dissolve and determine the structure of organic
compounds.
How is DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE-D6 different from regular DIMETHYL
SULFOXIDE?
DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE-D6 is deuterated, meaning it contains deuterium instead of
hydrogen. This makes it ideal for NMR spectroscopy, as it produces sharper signals and clearer
spectra compared to regular DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE.
What are the advantages of using DIMETHYL
SULFOXIDE-D6 in NMR spectroscopy?
DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE-D6 offers higher sensitivity and better
resolution in NMR spectroscopy due to the presence of deuterium. This allows for more accurate
determination of chemical structures and interactions.
Are there any precautions to take when
handling DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE-D6?
DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE-D6 is a potent solvent and should be
handled with care. It can easily penetrate the skin and carry other chemicals with it, so it is
important to wear appropriate protective gear when working with it. Additionally, it should be
stored in a cool, dry place away from sources of ignition.
How should DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE-D6
be stored?
DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE-D6 should be stored in a tightly sealed container in a cool,
dry place away from light and sources of ignition. It should also be kept away from strong oxidizing
agents to prevent decomposition.
