Urea, N-[(4-chlorophenyl)methyl]-N'-[1-(2-chlorophenyl)-1-methylethyl]-, also known as Chlormequat chloride or CCC, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C13H16Cl2N2. It is a quaternary ammonium salt derived from urea, featuring a 4-chlorophenylmethyl group and a 1-(2-chlorophenyl)-1-methylethyl group attached to the nitrogen atoms. Urea, N-[(4-chlorophenyl)methyl]-N'-[1-(2-chlorophenyl)-1-methylethyl]- is primarily used as a plant growth regulator, specifically as a dwarfing agent in agriculture to control plant height and improve crop quality. It works by inhibiting cell elongation, which can lead to stronger and more robust plants. Chlormequat chloride is also used in some industrial applications, such as in the production of certain types of plastics and as a flame retardant.
The CAS Registry Mumber 64797-43-9 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 6,4,7,9 and 7 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 4 and 3 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 64797-43: (7*6)+(6*4)+(5*7)+(4*9)+(3*7)+(2*4)+(1*3)=169 169 % 10 = 9 So 64797-43-9 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
