Levofloxacin-d8 Chloromethyl Ester is a deuterated derivative of levofloxacin, a broad-spectrum antibiotic belonging to the fluoroquinolone class. This compound is labeled with eight deuterium atoms, which enhance its stability and provide precise isotopic labeling for advanced research applications. The chloromethyl ester form allows for potential derivatization and conjugation in chemical and biochemical studies. Levofloxacin-d8 Chloromethyl Ester is particularly valuable in pharmacokinetic studies, drug metabolism research, and isotope-dilution mass spectrometry. It is essential for investigating the ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion) profile of levofloxacin and serves as a reliable internal standard in analytical chemistry, ensuring accurate and reproducible results in complex experimental setups.
