Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 1818-06-0 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 1,8,1 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 0 and 6 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 1818-06:
(6*1)+(5*8)+(4*1)+(3*8)+(2*0)+(1*6)=80
80 % 10 = 0
So 1818-06-0 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

POLY(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was hydrolyzed in aqueous NaOH using solar energy. PET is used as versatile reagent for the synthesis of a variety of heterocyclic compounds. Uracil (6a, b), 1,3,4-oxadiazole (9, 12a, b), 1,3,4-triazole (10, 14), thiadiazole (11a, b and 15) derivatives were synthesized from PET. The antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of the synthesized compounds were evaluated and showed significant activities.
Preparation of monoalkyl terephthalates: An overview
Chenot, Elodie-Denise,Bernardi, Dan,Comel, Alain,Kirsch, Gilbert
, p. 483 - 490 (2007/10/03)
Terephthalic acid can be readily converted to the corresponding monoalkyl terephthalate in high yield, via a two-step procedure. This method is advantageously compared to the more representative methods described in the literature. The purification of the expected monoester, a crucial problem for this synthetic pathway, is discussed, and an original procedure has been developed. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
