β-Methoxy-β-methylmercapto-styrol, also known as 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)-2-(methylthio)prop-2-enal, is a naturally occurring organosulfur compound found in various plants, particularly in the genus Allium, such as garlic and onions. This chemical is characterized by its distinct aroma and flavor, which contribute to the characteristic taste of these plants. It is formed through the enzymatic breakdown of alliin, a precursor found in garlic and onions, when they are damaged or crushed. β-Methoxy-β-methylmercapto-styrol has been studied for its potential health benefits, including antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, and is also used as a flavoring agent in the food industry.
The CAS Registry Mumber 14476-64-3 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 1,4,4,7 and 6 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 4 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 14476-64: (7*1)+(6*4)+(5*4)+(4*7)+(3*6)+(2*6)+(1*4)=113 113 % 10 = 3 So 14476-64-3 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
