Environmental Fate
Groundwater. According to the U.S. EPA (1986) cis-chlordane has a high potential to
leach to groundwater.
Photolytic. Irradiation of cis-chlordane by a 450-W high-pressure mercury lamp gave
photo-cis-chlordane (Ivie et al., 1972).
Chemical/Physical. In an alkaline medium or solvent, carrier, diluent or emulsifier
having an alkaline reaction, chlorine will be released (Windholz et al., 1983). Based on a
reported hydrolysis half-life of >197,000 years at 25°C and pH 7 (Ellington et al., 1988),
chemical hydrolysis is not expected to be an environmentally relevant fate process (Lyman
et al., 1982).
Emits very toxic fumes of chlorides when heated to decomposition (Lewis, 1990).
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 5103-74-2 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 5,1,0 and 3 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 4 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 5103-74:
(6*5)+(5*1)+(4*0)+(3*3)+(2*7)+(1*4)=62
62 % 10 = 2
So 5103-74-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
