6340-83-6 Usage
Type of Compound
Chemical compound
Neuroprotective
It helps protect nerve cells from damage.
Anticonvulsant
It prevents or reduces the severity of seizures.
Mood-stabilizing
It helps regulate mood swings.
Treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
A disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.
Investigational use for other neurodegenerative disorders
Such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.
Mechanism of Action
Reduces the release of glutamate, a neurotransmitter associated with nerve cell damage in ALS.
Administration
Typically administered orally (by mouth).
Effects
Improves survival and delays the need for ventilator support in patients with ALS.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 6340-83-6 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 6,3,4 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 8 and 3 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 6340-83:
(6*6)+(5*3)+(4*4)+(3*0)+(2*8)+(1*3)=86
86 % 10 = 6
So 6340-83-6 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Synthesis of new imidazolidinones, spiro-imidazolidinones and spiro-hydantoins
Chande, Madhukar S.,Balel, Satish K.
, p. 377 - 380 (2007/10/03)
α-Alkyl/aryl-α-arylaminopropionitriles (1) and 1-arylamino-1-cyano-cyclohexanes/cyclopentanes (5) react with alkyl/arylisocyanates to afford new imidazolidinones (2, 3) and spiro-imidazolidinones (6, 7) respectively. Compounds 2 and 6 on hydrolysis give hydantoins (4) and spiro-hydantoins (8), respectively.
