Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 61959-31-7 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 6,1,9,5 and 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 3 and 1 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 61959-31:
(7*6)+(6*1)+(5*9)+(4*5)+(3*9)+(2*3)+(1*1)=147
147 % 10 = 7
So 61959-31-7 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Intrinsically thermochromic fluorans
Azizian, Farid,Field, Amanda J.,Heron, B. Mark,Kilner, Colin
supporting information; experimental part, p. 750 - 752 (2012/02/02)
A Suzuki coupling strategy has been employed to access a series of novel fluorans substituted with a phenolic moiety. These fluorans display good thermochromism in methyl stearate and obviate the need for traditional complex formulations containing acidic colour developers.
Synthesis and Structure - Activity Relationships of Sweet 2-Benzoylbenzoic Acid Derivatives
Arnoldi, Anna,Bassoli, Angela,Borgonovo, Gigliola,Merlini, Lucio,Morini, Gabriella
, p. 2047 - 2054 (2007/10/03)
Twenty-four analogues of the sweet compound 2-(4-methoxybenzoyl)benzoic acid 1 were synthesized and tasted. The structure-sweet taste relationships were studied by means of principal component analysis and by comparison with the existing sweet receptor models. Three possible glucophores were identified, which could correspond to the sites B, E1, and E2 of the Tinti - Nofre model. Some similarities between this class of compounds and isovanillic sweeteners were found.
