2-Methylnaphthalene D10

2-Methylnaphthalene D10, also known as 2-Methyl-1-naphthalene-d10, is a deuterated form of 2-Methylnaphthalene. It is a clear liquid with a molecular formula of C11H7D10, and a molecular weight of 160.29 g/mol. The deuterium atoms in 2-Methylnaphthalene D10 replace hydrogen atoms, making it useful for a variety of analytical applications, particularly in NMR spectroscopy. 2-Methylnaphthalene D10 is commonly used as a reference standard in the analysis of petroleum products, particularly in gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. It is also used as an internal standard in the analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and other organic compounds. In addition to its analytical uses, 2-Methylnaphthalene D10 has a wide range of applications in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. It is used as a solvent, intermediate, and raw material for the synthesis of various organic compounds, including dyes, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals. While 2-Methylnaphthalene D10 is generally considered safe for use, it should be handled with care due to its flammable nature. It should be stored in a cool, dry place away from sources of heat and ignition. In case of accidental exposure, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.
