Trichloressigsaeure-<4-methyl-7-nitro-anilid>, also known as 4-methyl-7-nitroaniline trichloroacetamide, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C9H8Cl3N3O2. It is a derivative of trichloroacetic acid and 4-methyl-7-nitroaniline, featuring a trichloroacetamide group attached to the aniline moiety. Trichloressigsaeure-<4-methyl-7-nitro-anilid> is primarily used as a herbicide in agriculture, targeting the growth of various weeds. It works by inhibiting the enzyme acetohydroxyacid synthase, which is essential for plant growth. The chemical's specific structure and properties make it effective in controlling weed growth without causing significant harm to crops, although its use must be managed carefully to minimize environmental impact.
The CAS Registry Mumber 958-86-1 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 9,5 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 8 and 6 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 958-86: (5*9)+(4*5)+(3*8)+(2*8)+(1*6)=111 111 % 10 = 1 So 958-86-1 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
