4-Hydroxy atorvastatin-d5 calcium salt, a deuterium-labeled analog of the active metabolite of atorvastatin, is a compound of interest in analytical chemistry for its role as an internal standard in mass spectrometry. This stable isotope-labeled substance is essential in achieving precise quantification of atorvastatin in biological samples, enhancing the accuracy of pharmacokinetic studies. Researchers employ it to monitor the drug′s metabolism and to understand its biodistribution within the body. In addition to its utility in analytical assays, this compound is used in studies focusing on the enzymatic pathways involved in chemical metabolism, specifically the cytochrome P450 system. The incorporation of deuterium atoms not only aids in detection but also in studying the kinetic isotope effects, which can provide deeper insights into reaction mechanisms and enzyme-substrate interactions.
