N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)-Nalpha-(dichloroacetyl)phenylalaninamide, also known as dichloroacetyl-phenylalaninamide mustard, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C11H16Cl4N2O3. It is a derivative of phenylalanine, an amino acid, and is characterized by the presence of two chloroethyl groups attached to the nitrogen atom and a dichloroacetyl group attached to the phenylalanine's alpha-carbon. N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)-Nalpha-(dichloroacetyl)phenylalaninamide is of interest in the field of medicinal chemistry, particularly in the development of anticancer drugs, due to its potential to form covalent bonds with DNA, thereby inhibiting its replication and transcription. The chemical's structure and reactivity make it a candidate for further research in targeted therapies against cancer.
The CAS Registry Mumber 1462-80-2 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 1,4,6 and 2 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 8 and 0 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 1462-80: (6*1)+(5*4)+(4*6)+(3*2)+(2*8)+(1*0)=72 72 % 10 = 2 So 1462-80-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
