N-Methyl-d3-N-nitroso-p-toluenesulfonamide

CAS 42366-72-3, Cat. No EN300-8668096

Reagent deuterodiazomethane precursor

N-Methyl-d³-N-nitroso-p-toluenesulfonamide is a reagent that easily can yield deuterodiazomethane for synthetic purposes. It is a pale yellow powder, bench-stable for a long time, and soluble in petroleum ether, ether, benzene, alcohol, CHCl₃, and CCl₄. The typical procedure for generating deuterodiazomethane using N-Methyl-d³-N-nitroso-p-toluenesulfonamide involves its decomposition in a dilute solution, which is catalyzed by an alkali hydroxide.
