(+/-)-3,20-Dioxo-11β,18-oxido-21-hydroxy-regn-4-en; rac. 18-Desoxy-aldosteron is a complex steroidal chemical compound derived from the pregnane family. It is characterized by its unique structure, featuring a 3,20-dioxo group, an 11β-hydroxyl group, and a 21-hydroxyl group. The compound also has an oxidized 18-carbon atom, which distinguishes it from its parent compound, aldosterone. This racemic mixture, meaning it contains both the R and S enantiomers, is of interest in the field of medicinal chemistry due to its potential biological activities and therapeutic applications. The 18-desoxy-aldosteron part of its name indicates the absence of an oxygen atom at the 18th carbon position, which can significantly alter its pharmacological properties compared to aldosterone.
The CAS Registry Mumber 2604-35-5 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 2,6,0 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 3 and 5 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 2604-35: (6*2)+(5*6)+(4*0)+(3*4)+(2*3)+(1*5)=65 65 % 10 = 5 So 2604-35-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
