Description

General description

Benzene-d₆ (C₆D₆) is deuterated benzene. It is an anhydrous solvent, which minimizes any interference from water peaks. It is useful in performing critical air- and moisture-sensitive NMR analysis. Its Soret coefficient S(T) has been measured by transient holographic grating technique. Its synthesis,¹³C NMR, IR and MS spectra have been reported.

Application

Benzene-d₆ (C₆D₆) may be used in the following:

• Synthesis of isotopically labeled samples.
• As a ¹H and ¹³C-NMR solvent.
• In the internal calibration of benzene stock solution.
