Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 5438-66-4 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 5,4,3 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 6 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 5438-66:
(6*5)+(5*4)+(4*3)+(3*8)+(2*6)+(1*6)=104
104 % 10 = 4
So 5438-66-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Efficient Total Synthesis of (±)-Isoguaiacin and (±)-Isogalbulin

1-Arylnaphthalene lignans such as (-)-isoguaiacin and (-)-isogalbulin have been reported to exhibit notable biological properties. While (-)-isoguaiacin has not been previously synthesized, syntheses of (-)-isogalbulin are generally long and produce a mixture of stereoisomers. We herein present the efficient total synthesis of (±)-isoguaiacin and (±)-isogalbulin in seven and eight steps with an overall yield of 46% and 36%, respectively. The reported approach harnesses a hydrogenolysis reaction in acidic conditions, to convert a furan into an arylnaphthalen structure.
