8006-75-5 Usage
Preparation
By steam distillation of the freshly cut plants of A . graveolens L. (Guenther, 1950).
Essential oil composition
Dill seed oil: Limonene (5.9%), α-pinene (1.3%), γ-terpinene (0.1%), decanal (0.2%), terpinen-4-ol (0.1%),
β-elemene (0.1%), cis-dihydrocarvone and caryophyllene (0.8%), trans-hydrocarone (16.6%), carvone (20.9%), dillapiole (52.5%).
Dill weed oil: The major constituents are carvone (35%), limonene (25%), α-phellandrene (29%), 3,7-dimethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrocoumaran
(2.9%). In addition, myristicin, dillapiole and unidentified waxes have been reported.
Pharmacology
Dill oil from parts of the A . graveolens plant at concentrations of 50-100 μg/ml
had a spasmolytic effect on smooth muscle (isolated rabbit and guinea-pig intestine and guinea-pig
lung) and a 5% emulsion in physiological saline given iv to cats at 5-10 mg/kg increased respiratory
volume and depressed blood pressure (Shipochliev, 1968). The spasmolytic effect was considered
to be chiefly myotropic.
In nearly 100 haemorrhoidal patients, one-third of whom were young, repeated oral doses and
nightly enemas of an aqueous infusion prepared from 20-25 g dill plant (A. graveolens) in 200-250 g
water caused complete and lasting reduction of venous knots in 2-3 wk (Freise, 1938).
Safety Profile
Mildly toxic by
ingestion. A skin irritant. Mutation data
reported. When heated to decomposition it
emits acrid smoke and fumes.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 8006-75-5 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 6 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 5 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 8006-75:
(6*8)+(5*0)+(4*0)+(3*6)+(2*7)+(1*5)=85
85 % 10 = 5
So 8006-75-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
