8000-44-0 Usage
Chemical Properties
The oil is obtained by steam distillation with very low yields (0.05%) from comminuted leaves previously treated with
water. The water triggers the enzymatic hydrolysis of the glucoside (prulaurasin), yielding hydrogen cyanide and benzaldehyde. The
oil used by the food industry must be free of hydrogen cyanide. It exhibits a pronounced odor of benzaldehyde.
Physical properties
It is an almost colorless liquid. Slightly soluble in water; soluble in 2 volumes of 70% alcohol,
in benzene, chloroform or ether.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 8000-44-0 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 8,0,0 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 4 and 4 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 8000-44:
(6*8)+(5*0)+(4*0)+(3*0)+(2*4)+(1*4)=60
60 % 10 = 0
So 8000-44-0 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
