Butylserin, also known as 2-(N-Butylcarbamoyl)-3-phenyl-1,3-indandione, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C18H19NO2. It is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in organic solvents and has a melting point of approximately 90-92°C. Butylserin is primarily used as a pesticide, specifically as an insecticide, to control various pests in agriculture. It works by inhibiting the activity of acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system in insects, leading to their paralysis and eventual death. Due to its effectiveness and low mammalian toxicity, Butylserin has been widely used in the agricultural industry to protect crops from damage caused by insects.
The CAS Registry Mumber 7522-45-4 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 7,5,2 and 2 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 4 and 5 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 7522-45: (6*7)+(5*5)+(4*2)+(3*2)+(2*4)+(1*5)=94 94 % 10 = 4 So 7522-45-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
