the synthesis of a wide variety of phthalein1,2 and fluoran dyes.3 The structural chemistry of these acids has drawn much interest because of the properties of the ring-chain tautomerism in solution4 and the polymorphism in the crystal state.5 Lalancette et al. reported that the simplest acid, o-benzoylbenzoic acid (BBA) crystallizes in the two polymorphic forms: hydrous and anhydrous.6 In the ...

In the title compound, C(14)H(13)NO(4)S·0.5C(10)H(8)N(2), the two benzene rings are nearly perpendicular to each other [dihedral angle = 83.21 (10)°]. The bipyridine mol-ecule is centrosymmetric, the mid-point of the C-C bond linking the pyridine rings being located on an inversion center. Inter-molecular N-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds and weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are present i...

1. The urinary excretion of orally administered [(14)C]benzoic acid in man and 20 other species of animal was examined. 2. At a dose of 50mg/kg, benzoic acid was excreted by the rodents (rat, mouse, guinea pig, golden hamster, steppe lemming and gerbil), the rabbit, the cat and the capuchin monkey almost entirely as hippuric acid (95-100% of 24h excretion). 3. In man at a dose of 1mg/kg and the...

Fabrication of a test strip for detection of benzoic acid was successfully implemented by immobilizing tyrosinase, phenol and 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone (MBTH) onto filter paper using polystyrene as polymeric support. The sensing scheme was based on the decreasing intensity of the maroon colour of the test strip when introduced into benzoic acid solution. The test strip was characte...

the catalytic oxidation of toluene to benzoic acid in the liquid phase has been studied in an un-stirred tank reactor. low concentration of acetic acid was added in order to increase the solubility of the catalyst in toluene. the dependence of the rate of reaction on the concentration of toluene catalyst and oxygen pressure was studied. it has been suggested that liquid phase oxidation of tolue...

Mesotrione is a benzoylcyclohexane-1,3-dione herbicide that inhibits 4-hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase in target plants. Although it has been used since 2000, only a limited number of degrading microorganisms have been reported. Mesotrione-degrading bacteria were selected among strains isolated from Brazilian aquatic environments, located near corn fields treated with this herbicide. Pantoea...

5-(p-Substituted phenyl)-N-(3-(5-nitrofur-2-yl)allylidene)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amines 10-17 were prepared utilizing different p-substituted benzoic acid through two step reactions. Firstly, thiosemicarbzide was reacted with benzoic acid derivatives 1 in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride to give 2amino-5-substituted-1,3,4-thiadiazoles 2-9. These compounds were reacted with 5-nitro-2-furanacr...

The polarographic wave observed for acetonitrile solutions of benzoic acid is due to reduction of the acid proton: the apparent diffusion current constant for the wave increases with concentration of benzoic acid as expected for the reduction of the acidic proton of a slightly dissociated acid. No wave was observed for ethyl benzoate. The situation in respect to the electrochemical reduction of...

A new type of 3D MOF, namely [Eu(L)2NO3]n(HL ?= ?3,5-bis(triazol-1-yl)-benzoic acid), has been designed and synthesized. The unique crystal structure is derived from the combination ligand containing triazole moiety lanthanide Eu(?) ion. application ratio dual-signal improves accuracy for detecting amino acids. limit detection L-tryptophan in range 0–633 ??M 0.00424 ??M, reaching a ?M level.
