Octa-2,4,6-triynal, also known as 1,3,5-hexatriyne-2,4,6-trione, is an organic compound characterized by a unique structure consisting of three carbon-carbon triple bonds (acetylenic groups) and three carbonyl groups. This molecule is a linear, conjugated diene with a molecular formula of C6H2O3 and a molecular weight of 126.07 g/mol. It is a colorless, crystalline solid that is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. Octa-2,4,6-triynal is synthesized through various methods, including the condensation of acetylene with glyoxal and the oxidation of 1,3,5-hexatriene. Due to its highly reactive nature, it is used as a building block in the synthesis of various organic compounds, such as polymers and pharmaceuticals. However, it is also known for its potential toxicity and should be handled with caution.
The CAS Registry Mumber 2258-71-1 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 2,2,5 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 1 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 2258-71: (6*2)+(5*2)+(4*5)+(3*8)+(2*7)+(1*1)=81 81 % 10 = 1 So 2258-71-1 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
