General description

1,2-Dichloroethane-d4 is 1,2-dichloroethane with all the hydrogen atoms replaced by deuterium. Its synthesis and structure elucidation by neutron diffraction measurements has been reported.

Application

1,2-Dichloroethane-d4 may be used:
  • As a NMR solvent.
  • As a surrogate standard during the analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in water by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
  • As a chain termination reagent in the synthesis of poly(ethylene-d4 oxide).
