General description
Deuterium oxide (D2O) is also known as heavy water. It is the deuterated form of water, as both the protons in H2O have been replaced with a deuterium isotope.
Application
D2O can be used as a solvent in:
D2O is also used to prepare deuterium-labeled compounds in various fields such as pharmaceutical, bioanalytical, biological, and environmental chemistry via H-D exchange reactions to study drug metabolism mechanisms, reaction mechanisms, and the structure of biomolecules, and residual agrochemicals in foods using suitable analytical methods.
- High-resolution NMR (Nuclear magnetic resonance)
- FTIR (Fourier-transform infrared)
- Bio NMR studies
- Polarized visible Raman spectroscopic studies
