Pyridine-d{5} is used in the synthesis complexes with cobalt(II) halides, pyridine-d5, a deuterated form of pyridine, ionic liquid matrices (ILMs).
ChEBI: Pyridine-d5 is a deuterated compound, an azaarene, a mancude organic heteromonocyclic parent, a monocyclic heteroarene and a member of pyridines.
Pyridine-d5 is a deuterated NMR solvent useful in NMR-based research and analyses. It has been synthesized by palladium catalyzed H/D (hydrogen/deuterium) exchange reaction between pyridine vapor and heavy water. Infrared and Raman spectra of pyridine-d5 have been recorded in the range 300–4000cm-1.
