Vanillin-¹³C₆  (Synonyms: p-Vanillin-¹³C₆; m-Methoxy-p-hydroxybenzaldehyde-¹³C₆; p-Hydroxy-m-methoxybenzaldehyde-¹³C₆)

Vanillin-¹³C₆ is the ¹³C labeled Vanillin[1]. Vanillin (p-Vanillin) is a single molecule extracted from vanilla beans and also a popular odor used widely in perfume, food and medicine[2][3].

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].
