Phosgene-13C
Phosgene-13C (CAS 53120-07-3) is a stable isotope-labelled analogue of phosgene, with the chemical formula 13COCl2 and a molecular weight of 99.91 g/mol. This compound is supplied as a 1.0 M solution in toluene and is crucial for isotopic tracer studies and mechanistic investigations in organic synthesis, particularly in areas requiring precise tracking of carbon atoms.
Isotopic Labelling in Organic Synthesis
Phosgene-13C serves as a valuable reagent for introducing a 13C-labelled carbonyl group into organic molecules. This is essential for reaction mechanism studies and metabolic pathway tracing in biochemical research.
Chemical Synthesis Reagent
As a derivative of phosgene, it can be employed in the synthesis of various organic compounds, including carbonates, ureas, and isocyanates, with the added benefit of isotopic enrichment for analytical purposes.
Mechanistic Studies
The use of 13C allows researchers to track the fate of the carbonyl carbon atom through complex reaction pathways, providing unambiguous evidence for proposed mechanisms in chemical transformations.
