INTRODUCTION
Bromobenzene-d5 is a perdeuterated form of bromobenzene(C6H5Br), meaning all five hydrogen atoms in the benzene ring are replaced with deuterium (a stable isotope of hydrogen with one proton and one neutron). It is used as a stable isotope labeled compound, primarily in electronics industry, specifically in the production of OLED displays, in research applications, particularly in NMR spectroscopy and as a raw material in organic synthesis.
Manufacture
It is typically synthesized by reacting benzene-d6 with bromine in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst, such as iron(III) bromide. The reaction proceeds via electrophilic aromatic substitution, where a bromine atom replaces a deuterium atom on the benzene ring.

Applications
| In OLED applications can be used for stabilization of organic molecules employed in the next generations of OLED screens, manufacturing process of semiconductors, microchips and optical fibers. It is specially used to improve the efficiency of blue pigments in OLEDs, which are often a challenge to optimize. |
| Besides OLEDs, Bromobenzene-d5 is also utilized in various other electronic applications and as a starting material for synthesizing other deuterated compounds. |
| NMR Spectroscopy |
| It is used in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR).Spectroscopy, primarily as a solvent or lock/reference compound particularly in high-temperature or non-polar system studies. |
| Mass Spectroscopy (Internal Standard) |
| Utilized as a stable isotope-labeled internal standard quantitative mass spectrometric methods. Deuterium labeling makes it easily distinguishable from non-labeled analytes, improving accuracy and traceability. |
| In Isotope labeling and tracer studies to track molecular pathways and study kinetic isotope effects. |
| Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research |
| In the development of deuterated drug candidates, especially in DMPK (drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics) studies. |

Choline salicylate is a salicylate salt formed from choline and salicylic acid. It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID-type compound) mainly used for its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and mild antiseptic properties. Unlike acetylated salicylates, it is less irritating to the gastric mucosa and is commonly used in topical oral preparations such as gels and mouth paints.
TensyraTM N-10 (Octoxinol 10; tert-octyl phenyl ethoxylate) is a non-ionic surfactant known for its excellent solubilizing and membrane-permeabilizing properties. It features a hydrophilic polyethylene oxide chain paired with a lipophilic aromatic hydrocarbon group.It readily breaks down biological membranes to lyse cells, solubilize proteins, and permeabilize cell membranes for assays.
Teprenone (Geranylgeranylacetone, GGA) is a mixture of the all-trans and mono-cis isomers of 6,10,14,18-tetramethyl-5,9,13,17-nonadecatetraen-2-one (in a weight ratio of 3:2). It is an acyclic isoprenoid compound with a structure like retinoids and is widely used for the treatment of gastrointestinal ulcers.
Ciclopirox Olamine (CPO) is the N-oxide of a 2 -hydroxy pyridine derivative that carries antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties. It is composed of 6-cyclohexyl-1-hydroxy-4-methyl-2(1H)-pyridone combined with 2 aminoethanol (olamine) in a 1:1 ratio.
N,N-Dimethylglycine sodium salt (DMG Na) is the sodium salt form of N,N-dimethylglycine, a tertiary amino acid derivative is white to off white crystalline solid, freely soluble in water.
Blown Castor Oil (15-17 Poise) is a modified grade of Castor oil. The “15-17 Poise” specification refers to its viscosity range, indicating a medium-viscosity blown oil suitable for industrial applications requiring improved body, tackiness, and elasticity compared to regular castor oil.
Dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) is a is a tertiary amine that is ethanolamine having two N-methyl substituents. It is clear & colourless to pale yellow liquid with ammoniacal odor. DMAE is stable at room temperature and is completely miscible with water as well as organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers. It decomposes at high temperatures. It is a versatile chemical intermediate primarily used as a curing agent for polyurethane foams and epoxy resins.
1,4,7-Trimethyl-1,4,7-triazonane (Me₃TACN) is a valuable macrocyclic tridentate ligand derived from 1,4,7-triazacyclononane. In Me₃TACN, each nitrogen atom is substituted with a methyl group, which significantly modifies its steric and electronic properties. Me₃TACN is widely used as a ligand in coordination chemistry due to its ability to form stable complexes with transition metals such as Cu, Ni, Fe, Mn, and Zn.
Adenosine is a naturally occurring purine nucleoside composed of adenine and ribose, present in all living cells. It plays a vital role in biochemical processes such as energy transfer (ATP/ADP), signal transduction, and regulation of physiological functions, and is widely used in pharmaceutical applications.
