Question
Which isotope of hydrogen is used as a tracer in organic reactions ?
Solution
Both deuterium and tritium can be used as the tracer in organic compound. But tritium is not only radioactive but also least abundant isotope of hydrogen. Hence, deuterium is most commonly used as a tracer to study the mechanism of organic reactions.
