Applications Isotope labelled Diethylene Glycol (D444285), is an starting material in the manufacture of unsaturated polyester resins and plasticizers. References Hyun, S.H., et al.: J. MIcrobiol. Biotechnol., 23, 47 (2013);

Diethylene glycol d8 is a deuterated analog of diethylene glycol. It is synthesized from ethylene oxide and diethylene glycol by substitution of one hydrogen atom with deuterium. The sequences of this molecule have been determined, yielding a traceless product that can be used as a synthetic intermediate in the production of imidazoles. Diethylene glycol d8 is also used to study anions, acidic materials, and isotopic labeling. This compound has been methylated, butylated, or solvented to form different derivatives for use in studies on other molecules.
