The addition of a fluorine atom and a methyl ester group enhances stability and potency compared to the natural indole-3-acetic acid.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 5159-06-8 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 5,1,5 and 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 0 and 6 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 5159-06:
(6*5)+(5*1)+(4*5)+(3*9)+(2*0)+(1*6)=88
88 % 10 = 8
So 5159-06-8 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
