General description

Acetone-d6 is a deuterated NMR solvent containing 1% (v/v) TMS (tetramethylsilane). It is useful in NMR-based research and analyses. The Infrared and Raman spectra of acetone-d6 have been analyzed. Pyrolysis and photolysis of acetone-d6 and methane mixtures have been investigated as a function of temperature. It has been reported to be prepared by reacting heavy water with propyne-d4 in the presence of mercury catalyst.

Application

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.

We describe a simple and automatic method to determine nine aldehydes and acetone simultaneously in water. This method is based on derivatization with 2,2,2-trifluoroethylhydrazine (TFEH) and consecutive headspace-solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Acetone-d(6) was used as the internal standard.

A family of triarylamine-fullerene conjugates has been synthesized and shown to self-assemble upon light stimulation in chlorinated solvents. This light-induced process primarily involves excitation of triarylamine derivatives, which then oxidize and stack with their neutral counterparts to form charge transfer
