Inosinic acid-¹⁵N₄ dilithium  (Synonyms: 5'-IMP-15N4 dilithium; IMP-15N4 dilithium; Inosine 5'-dihydrogen phosphate-15N4 dilithium)

Inosinic acid-¹⁵N₄ dilithium (5'-IMP-15N4 (dilithium); IMP-15N4 (dilithium); Inosine 5'-(dihydrogen phosphate)-15N4 (dilithium)) is ¹⁵N-labeled Inosinic acid (HY-108213). Inosinic acid is an endogenous metabolite. Inosinic acid is used as umami tastant, or as the dietary supplement to improve the yield and meat quality of pigs^[1].

2. This compound can be used as an internal standard for quantitative analysis by NMR, GC-MS, or LC-MS.

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].
