1-(3'-chloropropyl)-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane, also known as chlorcarbofuran, is a chemical compound with the formula C7H12B10Cl2N2O2. It is a derivative of carborane, a boron-hydrogen cluster compound, and is characterized by its unique structure with a closo-dodecaborane core. 1-(3'-chloropropyl)-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane is primarily used as an insecticide and nematicide, targeting a wide range of pests due to its systemic action. It is effective against soil-dwelling pests and is also used to control various insects in agricultural crops. Chlorcarbofuran is known for its persistence in the environment and potential toxicity to non-target organisms, which has led to its restriction or ban in some countries. Its chemical properties and environmental impact are of significant concern, making it a subject of ongoing research and debate in the field of agricultural chemistry.
The CAS Registry Mumber 23940-14-9 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 2,3,9,4 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 4 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 23940-14: (7*2)+(6*3)+(5*9)+(4*4)+(3*0)+(2*1)+(1*4)=99 99 % 10 = 9 So 23940-14-9 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
