ACETONE-D6

Deuterated DMSO: DMSO is exchanged with heavy water in the presence of an alkaline catalyst (calcium oxide) to obtain DMSO-d6. This process needs to be repeated multiple times to obtain high-purity deuterated DMSO;
ACETONE-D6: Acetone is exchanged with heavy water in the presence of an alkaline catalyst (LiOD) to obtain ACETONE-D6;
Deuterated benzene: Benzene is exchanged with heavy water in the presence of a transition metal catalyst to obtain deuterated benzene;
Deuterated tetrahydrofuran: Tetrahydrofuran is obtained by... It is prepared by exchanging heavy water under metal catalysis;
Deuterated sodium hydroxide or deuterated potassium hydroxide can be prepared by reacting elemental metals with heavy water;
Deuterium gas: Deuterium gas can be prepared by electrolyzing deuterated water;
Lithium deuteride can be prepared by reacting metallic lithium with deuterium gas;
Similarly, sodium deuteride can be synthesized by reacting metallic sodium with deuterium gas;
With lithium deuteride, lithium aluminum deuteride is readily available. Deuterated lithium aluminum tetrahydrogen (lithium aluminum deuteride, LiAlD4) can be prepared by reacting lithium deuteride (LiD) with aluminum chloride.

colourless liquid

Acetone-d₆ may be used as a deuterated solvent in the ¹H NMR spectral studies of iodine containing radiopaque poly(methacrylate)copolymers. It may also be used as a source of deuterium atoms in the synthesis of labelled sterols.

Acetone-d6 may be used as an internal standard to detect aldehydes and acetone in water by headspace-solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

Isotope labelled Acetone is a common organic building block in organic chemistry.

ChEBI: A deuterated compound that is acetone in which all six hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium.

Acetone-d₆ can be prepared by reacting heavy water with propyne-d₄ in the presence of mercury catalyst.
