Trimethylsilyl propanoic acid (TMSP or TSP) is a chemical compound containing a trimethylsilyl group. It is used as internal reference in the NMR spectrum nuclear magnetic resonance for aqueous solvents (e.g. D2O). For that use it is often deuterated (3-(trimethylsilyl)-2,2',3,3'-tetradeuteropropionic acid or TMSP-d4).[1] Other internal references that are frequently used in NMR experiments are DSS and tetramethylsilane.

Deuterated TMSP
