Tetrakis-(2,2-dimethyl-hydrazino)-diboran, also known as borane-tetrahydroborate or THF·BH3, is a chemical compound with the formula [B2H6(NMe2)4]. It is a colorless, volatile, and highly flammable liquid that is soluble in organic solvents. Tetrakis-(2,2-dimethyl-hydrazino)-diboran is primarily used as a reducing agent in organic synthesis, particularly in the reduction of carbonyl compounds to alcohols. It is also used as a source of borane, which is a versatile reagent in various chemical reactions. Due to its sensitivity to air and moisture, it must be handled under an inert atmosphere, such as nitrogen or argon.
The CAS Registry Mumber 7360-74-9 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 7,3,6 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 4 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 7360-74: (6*7)+(5*3)+(4*6)+(3*0)+(2*7)+(1*4)=99 99 % 10 = 9 So 7360-74-9 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
