Fluoro-acetic acid nonyl ester, also known as 2-fluoroacetic acid nonyl ester or 2-fluoroethyl nonyl ether, is a synthetic chemical compound with the molecular formula C11H23FO2. It is a colorless liquid with a slight odor and is soluble in organic solvents. fluoro-acetic acid nonyl ester is primarily used as a pesticide and rodenticide, targeting a wide range of pests due to its high toxicity. It works by inhibiting the enzyme aconitase, which is crucial for the citric acid cycle, leading to the disruption of energy production in the target organism. Despite its effectiveness, its use is restricted in many countries due to its potential harm to non-target species and the environment.
The CAS Registry Mumber 463-09-2 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 4,6 and 3 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 0 and 9 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 463-09: (5*4)+(4*6)+(3*3)+(2*0)+(1*9)=62 62 % 10 = 2 So 463-09-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
