Methyl-carbamic acid 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-phenyl ester, also known as 2,3,5,6-tetramethylphenyl N-methylcarbamate, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C11H15NO2. It is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in most organic solvents. Methyl-carbamic acid 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-phenyl ester is primarily used as an insecticide, specifically as a contact poison and stomach poison for various pests. It works by inhibiting the activity of acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme that breaks down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, leading to the accumulation of acetylcholine in the nervous system and causing paralysis and death in the target insects. Due to its effectiveness and low mammalian toxicity, it has been widely used in agriculture to protect crops from damage caused by insects. However, it is important to handle this chemical with care, as it can be harmful if ingested or inhaled, and to follow proper safety guidelines to minimize potential risks to human health and the environment.
The CAS Registry Mumber 2655-18-7 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 2,6,5 and 5 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 8 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 2655-18: (6*2)+(5*6)+(4*5)+(3*5)+(2*1)+(1*8)=87 87 % 10 = 7 So 2655-18-7 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
