The question of the extent of the ability of the human organism to detoxicate benzoic acid by conjugation with glycocoll and elimination as hippuric acid in the urine has frequently been raised. Lewinsk? observed in the urine of men to whom 12 to 20 grams of benzoic acid had been given in small doses during t,he course of twelve hours, neither free benzoic acid nor benzoyl glycuronates. With la...

High-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) has been successfully used for the separation of eight compounds from Chimonanthus praecox flowers. Firstly, the crude extract of Chimonanthus praecox flowers was dissolved in a two-phase solvent system composed of petroleum ether-ethyl acetate-methanol-H₂O (5:5:3:7, v/v) and divided into two parts: the upper phase (part I) and the lower phase (...

Nowadays, dried edible flowers have become one of the eating habits a healthy lifestyle. The most common way to consume is via infused water (tisane). A number studies on reported antioxidant activities mainly due their phenolic compounds. This work has developed new extraction method using ultrasound technology determine compounds in 15 widely consumed flowers. Several factors including pulse ...

the melt-phase synthesis of dioctyltin (iv) and triphenyltin (iv) benzoates were carried outusing stoichiometric amounts of benzoic acids and the corresponding organotin (iv) compounds.the reagents were ground together in a mortar and fed into a boiling glass tube. a cannula tubewas inserted into the boiling tube to discharge accumulated gaseous products. a syringe ensureda continuous flow of d...

1. The extent to which phenolic derivatives of benzoic acid (seven); of phenylacetic acid (one); of 3-phenylpropionic acid (one) and of cinnamic acid (six) served as precursors of the urinary benzoic acid excreted by sheep was determined after administration as continuous drips via rumen or abomasal cannulas. 2. Phenolic derivatives of benzoic or of phenylacetic acid were not dehydroxylated to ...

1. The contribution of dietary constituents to the large urinary output of benzoic acid characteristic of ruminants and some herbivores is not well understood. 2. Methods for the analysis of quinic, cyclohexanecarboxylic, benzoic, phenylacetic, 3-phenylpropionic and cinnamic acids in urine and in rumen fluids were developed. 3. The urinary output of aromatic acids by sheep given seven-rations w...

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...

Hammett constants (σ) can be important factor to understanding substitution and position effects on benzoic acid. This report describes a computational study of ∆G◦ and σ for six substituted benzoic acid (X= F,Cl ,OH ,NH2 ,CN,NO2 )and phenylacetic acid substituted (X=OH ,NH2 ) at para and meta positions ingas and aqueousphases by DFT method and comparesit to available experimental and theoretic...
