23918-98-1 Usage
Description
The empirical formula of this alkaloid should read C9H II N 504' The natural
compound is the D-Erythro-form of the base. Melting points recorded for this
alkaloid are 279°C (dec.) by Kamiya et al and 26l-3°C (dec.) by Chibata and
his colleagues. The alkaloid has specific rotations of [α]D+ 16° (N-HC1) and
[α] D + 50° (0.1 N-NaOH). It gives an ultraviolet spectrum in H20 with a single
absorption maximum at 26l.5 nm which is shifted to 259.5 nm inN-HCl and is
at 262 nm in N-NaOH. Eritadenine forms a methyl ester, m.p. 231°C (dec.) and
a diacetate, m.p. 225°C (dec.).
Chemical Properties
Pale Yellow Solid
Uses
Hypocholesterolemic isolated from shiitake mushrooms, effecting phospholipid and linoleic acid metabolisms. Specifically, Eritadenine is a potent inhibitor of S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase (SAHH), decreasing total cholesterol levels in plasma.

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 23918-98-1 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 2,3,9,1 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 9 and 8 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 23918-98:
(7*2)+(6*3)+(5*9)+(4*1)+(3*8)+(2*9)+(1*8)=131
131 % 10 = 1
So 23918-98-1 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
