[0002] Deuterated electrolyte solvents generally refer to solvents containing deuterium instead of ordinary hydrogen used in nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy analysis. Deuterated water, also known as heavy water, is one of the most common deuterated solvents. It is composed of deuterium and oxygen with a chemical formula of D2O. It is used as a solvent in NMR analysis and is particularly suitable for the analysis of biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids.
[0003] In the preparation of deuterium gas, heavy water is generated by electrolysis of water.
