AM 404-d4 (CAS 1185244-71-6)

AM 404-d4, catalogued under the CAS number 1185244-71-6, is a deuterated derivative of AM 404, a compound known for its role in modulating various biochemical pathways. The addition of four deuterium atoms to AM 404 enhances its stability and reduces the rate of metabolic degradation, making AM 404-d4 particularly valuable in research applications where isotopic labeling is crucial. This chemical is extensively used in mass spectrometry-based studies to differentiate and quantify the parent compound AM 404 from its metabolites during metabolic profiling experiments. The deuterium atoms present in AM 404-d4 serve as stable isotopic labels that do not alter the chemical properties of the compound significantly but provide distinct mass spectral properties. This characteristic allows researchers to trace the metabolic fate of AM 404 in complex biological systems with greater accuracy and sensitivity. Additionally, due to its stable labeled nature, AM 404-d4 is instrumental in pharmacokinetic studies, enabling the examination of the dynamics of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of AM 404 without the interference from similarly structured compounds. Its use in non-medical research applications provides deeper understanding of biochemical pathways in experimental and analytical chemistry settings, focusing on the detailed study of molecular interactions and transformations.
