Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 344397-18-8 includes 9 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 6 digits, 3,4,4,3,9 and 7 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 8 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 344397-18:
(8*3)+(7*4)+(6*4)+(5*3)+(4*9)+(3*7)+(2*1)+(1*8)=158
158 % 10 = 8
So 344397-18-8 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Process for separating an oxidation reaction product and an oxidation catalyst
-
, (2008/06/13)
An oxidation reaction mixture (e.g. adipic acid, benzoic acid, butenediol) and an oxidation catalyst are efficiently separated from a reaction mixture with the use of an aqueous solvent (e.g. methyl benzoate, benzonitrile) containing at least water (e.g. water) and a non-water-soluble solvent separable from the aqueous solvent, the reaction mixture being obtained by oxidizing a substrate (e.g. a hydrocarbon) in the presence of an imide compound such as N-hydroxyphthalimide shown by the following formula (1) as the oxidation catalyst, wherein R1and R2represents a substituent such as a hydrogen atom and a halogen atom; R1and R2may together form a double bond, or an aromatic or nonaromatic 5- to 12-membered ring; X stands for O or OH; and n is 1 to 3. No decomposition of the oxidation catalyst is observed in this separation process.
