Salicylic acids

The glycogenolytic activity of some substituted salicylic acids.

Effects of acids and bases on salicylic acid-cetrimide systems.

The effects of acids and bases on the viscosity of salicylic acid-cetrimide systems were investigated. A viscosity reduction was produced by the addition of acids and was independent of the degree of saturation of the cetrimide solution with salicylic acid. The incorporation of base followed by that of acid increased and decreased the viscosity, respectively. This viscosity behavior was demonst...

Salicylic acids as readily available starting materials for the synthesis of meta-substituted biaryls.

Salicylic acids are shown to be readily available and versatile starting materials that easily undergo a tandem arylation-protodecarboxylation process under Pd-catalysis. The corresponding meta-arylphenols can subsequently be easily transformed into a variety of meta-functionalized biaryls, highlighting the versatility of this approach to access this structural motif.

Synthesis of anacardic acids, 6-[8(Z),11(Z)-pentadecadienyl]salicylic acid and 6-[8(Z),11(Z),14-pentadecatrienyl]salicylic acid.

11-Chloro-3-methoxy-2-undecenal was synthesized from 8-bromooctanol, and an annelation reaction with this aldehyde and ethyl acetoacetate proceeded to give the ethyl 6-(8-chlorooctyl)salicylate. Ethyl 6-(8-chlorooctyl)salicylate was converted to ethyl 6-(7-formylheptyl)-2-methoxybenzoate through the iodide after protection of the phenolic hydroxyl group. Finally, the Wittig reaction with the al...

Salicylic Acid in Neuralgia

seven grains of the Carbonate of soda, and give you a brief record of my experiences. During the taking of the first dram, there certainly was an abatement of the pain, and of the burning sensation I almost always have on the side of my face and head, and my pulse fell about five beats per minute, that is, from 72 to 68, and sometimes 65. During the taking of the second dram 1 began to experien...
