Bis(2-chloroethyl)ether (d8) is a deuterated form of bis(2-chloroethyl)ether, where the hydrogen atoms in the molecule are replaced by deuterium. This compound is commonly used as a stable isotope-labeled internal standard in analytical chemistry, particularly in the study of organic reactions and chemical degradation processes. Its deuterated form helps in distinguishing the compound from non-labeled species in mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In material chemistry, it is used in the synthesis of polymers and as a cross-linking agent in various chemical applications. Its deuterium labeling enhances the accuracy and sensitivity of analytical measurements in both environmental and pharmaceutical research.
