2,6-Dinitro-4-(1-propylhexyl)-phenol, also known as DNOC, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C12H18N2O5. It is a yellow crystalline solid that is soluble in organic solvents and slightly soluble in water. DNOC was historically used as a pesticide, particularly for controlling pests in agriculture. It functions by inhibiting the respiratory process in insects, leading to their death. However, due to its high toxicity and potential health risks to humans and the environment, its use has been largely discontinued. DNOC is classified as a dangerous good due to its explosive and toxic properties, and it is now considered an obsolete pesticide.
The CAS Registry Mumber 6692-97-3 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 6,6,9 and 2 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 9 and 7 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 6692-97: (6*6)+(5*6)+(4*9)+(3*2)+(2*9)+(1*7)=133 133 % 10 = 3 So 6692-97-3 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
