Sulfurous acid bis-(2,2,4-trimethyl-pentyl) ester, also known as bis(2,2,4-trimethylpentyl) sulfate or DBS, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C16H34O4S. It is an organosulfur compound that is derived from sulfurous acid and is used as a fuel additive, specifically as a diesel fuel cetane improver. This additive enhances the combustion properties of diesel fuel, leading to better engine performance and reduced emissions. The compound is characterized by its two 2,2,4-trimethylpentyl groups attached to a central sulfate group, which contributes to its effectiveness in improving the ignition quality of diesel fuel.
The CAS Registry Mumber 2371-07-5 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 2,3,7 and 1 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 0 and 7 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 2371-07: (6*2)+(5*3)+(4*7)+(3*1)+(2*0)+(1*7)=65 65 % 10 = 5 So 2371-07-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
