14863-58-2 Usage
General Description
2,6-dichlorophenyl dimethylcarbamate, also known as propoxur, is a chemical compound used as an insecticide and acaricide. It works by inhibiting the action of acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme that breaks down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. This leads to a buildup of acetylcholine at the synaptic junctions of nerve cells, causing hyperexcitation and ultimately paralysis and death in insects and mites. Propoxur is commonly used in agriculture to control pests on crops and in public health to combat vectors of disease, such as mosquitoes and ticks. It is also used in household and commercial settings for pest control. However, propoxur has been banned in some countries due to concerns about its potential toxicity to humans and non-target organisms.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 14863-58-2 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 1,4,8,6 and 3 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 8 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 14863-58:
(7*1)+(6*4)+(5*8)+(4*6)+(3*3)+(2*5)+(1*8)=122
122 % 10 = 2
So 14863-58-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Room-temperature Pd-catalyzed C-H chlorination by weak coordination: One-pot synthesis of 2-chlorophenols with excellent regioselectivity

, p. 1262 - 1264 (2014/02/14)
A room-temperature Pd(ii)-catalyzed regioselective chlorination reaction has been developed for a facile one-pot synthesis of a broad range of 2-chlorophenols. The reaction demonstrates an excellent regioselectivity and reactivity for C-H chlorination. This reaction represents one of the rare examples of mild C-H functionalization at ambient temperature.
