Dimethyl 3,4-seco-5α-cholestan-3,4-dioate is a chemical compound derived from the cholesterol molecule. It is characterized by the removal of two carbon atoms (C3 and C4) from the steroid nucleus, resulting in a seco-steroid structure. This modification leads to the formation of a double bond between C3 and C4, creating a unique chemical entity. The compound is further characterized by the presence of two ester groups, which are derived from the carboxylic acid groups at C3 and C4, and are esterified with methanol. This results in two methyl ester groups attached to the molecule. Dimethyl 3,4-seco-5α-cholestan-3,4-dioate is of interest in the field of organic chemistry and may have potential applications in the synthesis of various steroidal compounds and pharmaceuticals.
The CAS Registry Mumber 1180-19-4 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 1,1,8 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 9 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 1180-19: (6*1)+(5*1)+(4*8)+(3*0)+(2*1)+(1*9)=54 54 % 10 = 4 So 1180-19-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
