Rac-Nicotine-d4 is a deuterated form of racemic nicotine, where four hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium. This isotopically labeled compound is extensively used in pharmacokinetic, toxicological, and metabolic studies, allowing researchers to track and quantify nicotine’s behavior in biological systems using techniques like mass spectrometry. Nicotine is a well-known alkaloid with stimulant effects on the nervous system, and rac-Nicotine-d4 aids in studying its absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion without altering its biological activity. It is also valuable in organic chemistry for investigating the mechanisms of nicotine-related reactions.
