In the title compound, C(6)H(9)N(2) (+)·C(7)H(4)NO(4) (-), the nitro group of the 4-nitro-benzoate anion is twisted by 6.2 (2)° from the attached ring. In the crystal structure, the cations and anions are linked via strong N-H⋯O and weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.

Cyclic eight-membered hydrogen-bonded rings exist in the title compound, C(5)H(7)N(2)(+).C(7)H(5)O(2)(-), involving the 2-aminopyridinium and benzoate ions. Each benzoate ion has two intramolecular hydrogen bonds. 2-Aminopyridinium benzoate ion pairs are linked by N-H...O hydrogen bonds, with an N...O distance of 2.8619 (14) A.

The title compound, C(9)H(9)N(3)O(6), was synthesized by the condensation of methyl 3,5-dinitro-benzoate and 2-amino-ethanol. The non-centrosymmetric space group results in the formation of pseudo-chiral helices in the crystal structure, which exhibits a layer packing structure involving intra-molecular N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O inter-actions.

The title compound, C27H34O2, was hemisynthesized through direct benzoyl-ation of the naturally occurring meroterpene totarol. The central fused six-membered ring has a half-chair conformation, whereas the terminal six-membered ring displays a chair conformation. The dihedral angle between the fused benzene ring and the benzoyl benzene ring is 73.05 (14)°. The S,S chirality of the mol-ecule is ...

The zoospores of Phytophthora sojae are chemotactically attracted to the isoflavones genistein and daidzein that are released by soybean roots. In this study we have examined the response of P. sojae zoospores to a wide range of compounds having some structural similarity to genistein and daidzein, including isoflavones, flavones, chalcones, stilbenes, benzoins, benzoates, benzophenones, acetop...

The paper presents and illustrates and improved version of the SIBIS algorithm. SIBIS is a self-consistent type algorithm which is well suited to delineate the main steric features of biological receptor, identify missing relevant atoms and/or presence of superfluous atoms in the molecules studied, and to provide an approximate estimate for the receptor bulk tolerance. SIBIS calculations for a ...

Benzoate competes with n-amino acids for n-amino acid oxidase and thus inhibits the activity of the oxidase (l-3). Monosubstituted benzoates, depending upon the substituent, have higher and lower affinities for the oxidase than has benzoate (2). Kojic acid, a Y-pyrone, likewise competitively inhibits the oxidase (4). The present report describes the inhibition of n-amino acid oxidase by certain...
