Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 18979-67-4 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 1,8,9,7 and 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 18979-67:
(7*1)+(6*8)+(5*9)+(4*7)+(3*9)+(2*6)+(1*7)=174
174 % 10 = 4
So 18979-67-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Antifungal Activity of 2,4-Dihydroxyacylophenones and Related Compounds
Mizobuchi, Shigeyuki,Sato, Yuko
, p. 1327 - 1334 (2007/10/02)
The antifungal activity of 2,4-dihydroxyacylophenones and related compounds against Trichophyton spp. and other fungi were investigated to determine their structure-activity relationships.The activity of these compounds was found to be closely related to the length of the acyl and alkyl substituents attached to the 1,3-dihydroxybenzene moiety.In addition, differences in activity were observed depending on the position of the alkyl substituents and on the number of substituents attached to the 1,3-dihydroxybenzene moiety.Some compounds tested showed potent antifungal activity against Trichophyton spp. and other fungi that was more active than amphotericin B.
