water.
2. Sesone or Crag pesticide is a colorless, odor-
less, and crystalline solid. It’s a noncombustible solid, but
commercial products may be formulated using flammable
organic solvents, which can change the physical properties
shown here.
Uses
Preemergence herbicide.
General Description
Colorless to white crystalline, odorless solid. Mp: 245°C (with decomposition). Manufacture discontinued in 1994 by Rhone-Poulenc Ag Co.
Hazard

Shipping
UN3345 Phenoxyacetic acid derivative pesticide,
solid, toxic, Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous
materials.
Incompatibilities
Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates,
nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine,
bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explo-
sions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases,
strong acids, oxoacids, and epoxides.
Waste Disposal
Sesone is hydrolyzed by
alkali to NaHSO4 and apparently dichlorophenoxyethanol.
In accordance with 40CFR165, follow recommendations
for the disposal of pesticides and pesticide containers. Must
be disposed properly by following package label directions

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 136-78-7 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 1,3 and 6 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 8 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 136-78:
(5*1)+(4*3)+(3*6)+(2*7)+(1*8)=57
57 % 10 = 7
So 136-78-7 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
