General description

Benzene-d6 (C6D6) is a deuterated derivative of benzene. It is a standard purity solvent for NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) analyses. Its Soret coefficient S(T) has been measured by the transient holographic grating technique. Its first resonance Raman spectrum and infrared absorption intensities (in the range of 5000-450cm-1) have been reported. Benzene-d6 participates in the synthesis of isotopically labeled samples.

Application

Benzene-d6 may be used as a deuterated solvent for the 1H NMR studies of μ-methylene-bis(η5-cyclopentadienylcarbonylcobalt), a bridging methylene complex.
