Dosn't the OH group exchange with water? If so, the
O18 would be dependent upon the composition of the water.

Dear Andrea,
my lab measured 3 sample of ethanol in the framework of an
interlaboratory collaborative study among 11 labs in the world.
The 18O values and sample description are as follows:
15.7 0 Vs. V-SMOW - alcohol 95%
-1.4 0 Vs. V-SMOW- anhydrous synthetic alcohol
19.6 0 Vs. V-SMOW - anhydrous alcohol
Hoping this could help you.

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has attempted to determine the delta 18O signature of
10% formalin or 85% ethanol. If so, what values did you obtain?
Thank-you,
Andrea
