Product Description
Hexanoic acid-d11 is the deuterium labelled form of Hexanoic acid.
Hexanoic acid-d11 (Hexylic acid-d11, Capronic acid-d11, Caproic acid-d11) is the deuterium-labeled analogue of hexanoic acid (CAS 142-62-1). It has a molecular formula of C₆H₁D₁₁O₂ and a molecular weight of 127.23 g/mol. Hexanoic acid is a naturally occurring fatty acid found in various animal fats and oils, appearing as a colorless oily liquid with a cheese-like odor. The deuterated form is primarily used as a quantitative tracer in drug development and metabolic studies, as deuteration can affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Hexanoic acid-d11 is a stable isotope-labeled compound used as a tracer in metabolic pathways. The non-deuterated hexanoic acid acts as a resistance priming inducer that protects tomato plants from Botrytis cinerea and has a role as a human and plant metabolite. In biological systems, hexanoic acid can activate the salicylic acid signaling pathway, inducing resistance against pathogens. It has also shown efficacy against various bacterial strains.
ln Vitro
Drug compounds have included stable heavy isotopes of carbon, hydrogen, and other elements, mostly as quantitative tracers while the drugs were being developed. Because deuteration may have an effect on a drug's pharmacokinetics and metabolic properties, it is a cause for concern [1].
In vitro, Hexanoic acid-d11 functions as a stable isotope tracer, with its incorporation into metabolic pathways allowing for quantitative tracking of metabolic flux. The non-deuterated hexanoic acid demonstrates efficacy against various bacterial strains and acts as a resistance priming inducer in plants. However, specific in vitro potency data such as IC₅₀ values are not detailed in the available literature. Its primary in vitro application is as an analytical standard and tracer.
ln Vivo
Specific in vivo activity data for Hexanoic acid-d11 are not available as it is primarily a tracer compound. The non-deuterated hexanoic acid, as a naturally occurring fatty acid, is a human and plant metabolite involved in normal metabolic processes. As a resistance priming inducer, it protects tomato plants from Botrytis cinerea by activating the salicylic acid signaling pathway. However, systematic pharmacological in vivo studies of the deuterated compound have not been reported.
Enzyme Assay
No specific protocols for enzyme/receptor binding assays are available for Hexanoic acid-d11 as it is primarily a tracer compound. For metabolic studies, the compound is typically used in chromatographic methods such as GC-MS or LC-MS for quantitative analysis of fatty acid metabolism. It serves as an internal standard or tracer to track the incorporation and transformation of hexanoic acid in biological systems. Standard curves are prepared using known concentrations of the deuterated compound.
Cell Assay
No specific cell-based assay protocols are available for Hexanoic acid-d11. The compound is primarily used as a stable isotope tracer in metabolic studies rather than in cellular assays. For fatty acid metabolism studies, cells are treated with the deuterated compound, and its incorporation into metabolic pathways is tracked by mass spectrometry. It may also be used as an internal standard in quantitative analysis of fatty acids in cell lysates or culture media.
Animal Protocol
No specific in vivo animal experiment protocols are available for Hexanoic acid-d11. The compound is used as a tracer in pharmacokinetic and metabolic studies where it is administered to animals, and its distribution, metabolism, and excretion are tracked by mass spectrometry. However, specific protocols are not detailed in the available literature. The compound is not used as a therapeutic agent but as an analytical tool.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for Hexanoic acid-d11 are not directly available. As a deuterated analogue of hexanoic acid, its pharmacokinetic properties may differ from the non-deuterated form due to the kinetic isotope effect, which can affect metabolic stability and clearance. Hexanoic acid itself is a naturally occurring fatty acid that is metabolized via β-oxidation. The deuterated form is used to study these metabolic pathways and to investigate how deuteration affects drug pharmacokinetics.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Hexanoic acid-d11 are limited. As a deuterated fatty acid, it is generally considered to have low toxicity. Hexanoic acid is a naturally occurring compound found in various animal fats and oils and is a human metabolite. However, comprehensive toxicological studies for the deuterated form have not been reported. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound. It is intended for research use only.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
