Benz[c]acridine is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) with the chemical formula C19H13N. It is a tricyclic compound consisting of a benzene ring fused to an acridine ring, which itself is composed of two fused six-membered rings. Benz[c]acridine is known for its potential mutagenicity and carcinogenicity, as it can interact with DNA and cause mutations. Due to its hazardous properties, it is not used commercially and is primarily of interest in toxicological and environmental studies. The compound is also a byproduct of incomplete combustion processes, such as those occurring in industrial settings or during the burning of fossil fuels.
The CAS Registry Mumber 25-51-4 includes 5 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 2 digits, 2 and 5 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 1 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 25-51: (4*2)+(3*5)+(2*5)+(1*1)=34 34 % 10 = 4 So 25-51-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
