Chloroform-d #CAS865-49-6
Deuterated chloroform (CDCl3) is a deuterated derivative of chloroform, a deuterated solvent. It is a colorless liquid used in NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) instruments. Its use is due to its good chemical solubility in samples; its residual signal peaks do not interfere with the sample's signal peaks. The residual proton signal of deuterated chloroform is at 7.26 ppm; the possible residual water peak is at 1.56 ppm.
Deuterated chloroform is a reagent used in NMR instruments; it is also a raw material for organic synthesis, mainly used to produce Freon (F-21, F-22, F-23), dyes, and pharmaceuticals. In medicine, it is commonly used as an anesthetic. It can be used as a solvent and extractant for antibiotics, fragrances, oils, resins, and rubber. Mixed with carbon tetrachloride, it can form a non-freezing fire retardant. It is also used in propellants for smoke agents, fumigants for grains, and standard solutions for temperature calibration. Industrial products often contain a small amount of ethanol, which reacts with the generated phosgene to produce non-toxic diethyl carbonate. Before using industrial chloroform, a small amount of concentrated sulfuric acid can be added, shaken, and then washed with water. After drying with calcium chloride or potassium carbonate, ethanol-free chloroform can be obtained.
Deuterated chloroform (CDCl3), also known as chloroform-d, is an excellent everyday solvent choice for scientists who demand exceptional results. Commonly used as a solvent in proton NMR (1H NMR) spectroscopy, chloroform-d can dissolve a vast array of compounds with ease due to its weak polarity. It is often used in combination with methanol-d as a cosolvent. Plus, its low boiling point makes it relatively easy to recover a sample post-NMR analysis or during organic syntheses.
Application of Chloroform-d
Chloroform-d is widely used in the organic solvent for the NMR analysis.
Chloroform-d may be used in the synthesis of dichlorofluoromethane-d (DCFM).
