Ethanol-2,2,2-d3, also referred to as 2,2,2-trideuterioethanol, is a specialized compound used in research to investigate the metabolic processes of ethanol. This isotopically labeled ethanol is categorized as a deuterated compound due to the presence of deuterium, a heavier isotope of hydrogen, within its structure. Deuterium, occurring in small quantities in nature, is employed in scientific studies to explore biochemical and metabolic pathways. Ethanol-2,2,2-d3 plays a role in research focused on understanding ethanol metabolism. Moreover, it enables the study of alcohol metabolism for other alcohols such as methanol and propanol. The metabolism of ethanol-2,2,2-d3 closely resembles that of regular ethanol. Initially, the deuterium-labeled ethanol undergoes oxidation by alcohol dehydrogenase, resulting in the formation of acetaldehyde-2,2,2-d3. Subsequently, aldehyde dehydrogenase further oxidizes acetaldehyde-2,2,2-d3 to yield acetate-2,2,2-d3. Finally, the citric acid cycle metabolizes acetate-2,2,2-d3, ultimately producing carbon dioxide and water.
