Deuterated (4-Chlorophenyl-4′-hydroxyphenyl)-d8 sulfone

OVERVIEW

Deuterated (4-Chlorophenyl-4′-hydroxyphenyl)-d₈ sulfone is the heavy hydrogen (deuterium, ²H) labeled analog of the unlabeled parent compound 4-chlorophenyl-4′-hydroxyphenyl sulfone. In this derivative, eight hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, resulting in a precise mass shift while preserving relevant physicochemical characteristics of the non-labeled molecule.

The replacement of protium (¹H) with deuterium provides several analytical advantages, particularly in mass spectrometry (MS) — the compound behaves identically in extraction, ionization, and chromatographic phases but can be unambiguously distinguished by its mass.

This compound is widely used as an internal standard in LC-MS/MS and GC-MS methods to improve accuracy, precision, and quantitation of trace-level analytes in complex matrices such as biological fluids, environmental extracts, and pharmaceutical formulations.

APPLICATIONS  of  Deuterated (4-Chlorophenyl-4′-hydroxyphenyl)-d8 sulfone

 

Analytical Reference Standard (LC-MS/MS / GC-MS)
Deuterated (4-Chlorophenyl-4′-hydroxyphenyl)-d₈ sulfone is primarily utilized as an internal standard in quantitative mass spectrometry assays due to its close mimicry of the native analyte. Its stable isotopic signature allows for unambiguous distinction from endogenous or sample-derived molecules, enhancing both selectivity and sensitivity.

Pharmaceutical Bioanalysis
In pharmacokinetic and toxicological studies, this deuterated sulfone standard enables precise quantitation of parent compounds or metabolites in plasma, urine, or tissue. It supports regulatory compliance by reducing analytical uncertainty and is often incorporated into validated methods submitted to regulatory authorities.

Environmental and Forensic Testing
Analytical laboratories performing trace-level detection of phenolic or chlorinated compounds in environmental matrices benefit from using this heavy labeled standard to correct for extraction inefficiencies and instrumental variability.

Method Development and Validation
Scientific teams developing new analytical assays rely on deuterated standards like this sulfone to calibrate instruments, assess linearity, reproducibility, limits of detection (LOD), and limits of quantitation (LOQ). They are indispensable in establishing method performance characteristics.
