5α-cholest-1-en-3-one-(2,4-dinitro-phenylhydrazone) is a chemical compound derived from the reaction of 5α-cholest-1-en-3-one, a steroidal ketone, with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine, a reagent used for the detection and identification of carbonyl compounds. This derivative is formed through the formation of a hydrazone bond between the carbonyl group of the ketone and the hydrazine group of the reagent. The resulting compound is characterized by its yellow color and is used in analytical chemistry for the detection and quantification of steroidal ketones. The 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone derivative enhances the solubility and stability of the steroidal ketone, facilitating its analysis through techniques such as thin-layer chromatography or high-performance liquid chromatography.
The CAS Registry Mumber 1923-42-8 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 1,9,2 and 3 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 4 and 2 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 1923-42: (6*1)+(5*9)+(4*2)+(3*3)+(2*4)+(1*2)=78 78 % 10 = 8 So 1923-42-8 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
