In the title compound, C(21)H(18)O(5), the dihedral angle between the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring is 86.65 (6)°. The bridging carbonyl C-C(=O)-C plane makes dihedral angles of 83.57 (7) and 20.21 (8)°, respectively, with the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring. The ester O-C=O plane and the benzene ring are almost coplanar, making a dihedral angle of 3.81 (18)°. The tw...

In the title methyl-benzoate compound, C(16)H(16)O(3), the mol-ecule is essentially planar (r.m.s. of all fitted non-H atoms = 0.0370 Å); the dihedral angle between the phenyl rings is 2.30 (7)°. Apart from a C-H⋯π inter-action, no marked inter-molecular contacts are obvious.

A rapid gas-liquid chromatographic procedure was developed to determine hippurate hydrolysis by microorganisms. Bacterial cells were inoculated into 0.4 ml of 1% sodium hippurate and incubated for 2 h at 37°C. Cells were removed by centrifugation, and the benzoate released by enzyme activity was converted to methyl benzoate and analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography. This procedure is sensitive,...

Temperature, an environmental factor affecting cut flowers' physiological state, is expected to affect scent emission. We investigated emission from carnation flowers of two types (Dianthus caryophyllus L.), exhibiting fruity (because methyl benzoate) and spicy eugenol) scents, at various temperatures (10°C, 15°C, 23°C, 28°C). Cut harvested on the day flower opening were used for analysis. Scen...

The conformation of the C=O bond in the title compound, C(14)H(11)ClO(2), is anti to the Cl atom, similar to what was observed in 2-methyl-phenyl 4-methyl-benzoate. The dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 59.36 (7)°.

In the title compound, C15H13F3O2S, the dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 79.5 (1)°. The ester group is twisted by 7.6 (1)° from the mean plane of the adjacent benzene ring. Disorder was modeled over two sites for one F atom of the tri-fluoro-methyl group with an occupancy ratio of 0.54 (6):0.46 (6). In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming two-dime...

Mol-ecules of the title compound, C(13)H(11)N(3)O(3), are connected into centrosymmetric dimers via inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, generating an R(2) (2)(8) motif. The pyrimidine and the phenyl rings are twisted with respect to each other by an inter-planar angle of 61.3 (1)°.

In the title compound, C(14)H(11)N(3)O(2), the dihedral angle between the phenyl ring and the benzotriazole ring system is 76.80 (19)° and the mol-ecule has an L-shaped conformation. In the crystal, weak aromatic π-π stacking is observed, the closest centroid-centroid distance being 3.754 (2) Å.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C(14)H(11)BrClNO(4)S, the mol-ecules form inversion dimers with R(2) (2)(8) motifs through pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The benzene rings are not coplanar and subtend a dihedral angle of 66.27 (8)°. The carbomethoxy group makes a dihedral angle of 75.1 (1)° with the ring to which it is attached.

In the title compound, C(14)H(17)NO(3), the piperidine ring has a chair conformation and an intra-molecular C-H⋯O inter-action stabilizes the mol-ecular conformation. In the crystal, weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions occur.
