INTRODUCTION
Benzene-d6 is a deuterated form of benzene, where hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium, making it ideal for use as a solvent in NMR spectroscopy. It is widely employed in chemical, pharmaceutical, and environmental research for isotopic labeling and reaction mechanism studies.
MANUFACTURE
It is manufactured through isotopic exchange, where benzene (C₆H₆) reacts with deuterium gas in the presence of a catalyst.

APPLICATIONS
Used as a solvent to eliminate proton interference in organic compound analysis.
It tracks atom movement during reactions, aiding in studies of reaction mechanisms, kinetic isotope effects, and structural elucidation.
Plays a key role in OLED technology by enabling photophysical studies, material characterization, and enhancing efficiency through deuterium substitution, which helps reduce non-radiative decay pathways.
Helps in drug development, metabolism studies, and pharmacokinetics by tracking drug processing through isotopic labeling.
It contributes to protein NMR and hydrogen-deuterium exchange experiments for analyzing protein structures and dynamics.
It traces chemical substances in forensic science, aiding in drug testing and contamination detection.
Aids in identifying environmental pollutants and contaminants in water and soil by labeling them with deuterium.
