2-butoxypropyl 2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy)acetate, also known as 2,4,5-T, is a synthetic chemical compound that belongs to the family of phenoxy herbicides. It is a derivative of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), with an additional chlorine atom and a butoxypropyl ester group. 2-butoxypropyl 2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy)acetate was widely used as a selective herbicide to control broadleaf weeds and woody plants in agricultural settings, particularly in combination with 2,4-D in the formulation known as Agent Orange during the Vietnam War. However, due to concerns over its potential health risks and environmental impact, including the formation of dioxins as byproducts, the production and use of 2,4,5-T have been largely discontinued in many countries. The compound's chemical structure and properties have been extensively studied, and it is known for its persistence in the environment and potential to bioaccumulate in living organisms.
The CAS Registry Mumber 3084-62-6 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 3,0,8 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 2 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 3084-62: (6*3)+(5*0)+(4*8)+(3*4)+(2*6)+(1*2)=76 76 % 10 = 6 So 3084-62-6 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
