In an example, the condensation product of cyanuric chloride with 3-(diethylamino)propylamine and 6-amino-1-naphthol-3-sulfonic acid (1:2:1) was prepared and coupled with diazotized 1-naphthylamine-6- sulfonic acid to give a red dye.

Abstract text:

AB The microbiol. transformation of L-696,474, a novel cytochalasin that is an inhibitor of HIV-1 protease, was investigated using Actinoplanes sp. ATCC 53771. Six hydroxylated metabolites were isolated and purified using reversed-phase HPLC. All six metabolites were found to have undergone hydroxylation at the C-16 Me group (C-22). Three of the compds. were further hydroxylated at the para (C-29), the meta (C-28), and both the para and the meta, positions of the Ph ring, resp. Two metabolites were shown to result from vicinal dihydroxylation on both C-16 and its attached Me(C-22). One metabolite was further hydroxylated on the meta position of the Ph ring. The structures of the metabolites were established using spectroscopic techniques including mass spectrometry, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and various 2D NMR spectroscopy expts.

Each index entry, i.e., the CA index name for a substance, was Each index entry, i.e., the CA index name for a substance, was matched against the names in the Registry file.matched against the names in the Registry file. Substances that matched are now searchable with both names and CAS Registry Numbers. The CA substance index names that did not match against Registry substance names have been added to the IT field and may be searched in the /IT field or in the Basic Index (6th or 7th CI index name).

In the following example, the second IT is a substance that did not match any Registry names. Its name (as it appeared in the printed index) has been added to the IT field. No CAS Registry Number is included with the name.

The third IT includes four substances that did match Registry names; both their CAS Registry Numbers and their names were included.

Some Hints:

In CAOLD CAS RN assignment was based on Molecular Formula Index and substances with less of 50 references were not indexed by CAS RN.

For a complete search in –1967 records you should use RN and trivial names, in CAOLD

For a complete search in –1967 records you should use RN, trivial names, and pieces of names from 6th or 7th CI, in CAPLus
