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...

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 t...

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...

The extensive investigations on the conjugation of benzoic acid, since Wohler’s discovery in 1824 of the synthesis of hippuric acid by the animal, have failed to furnish a comprehensive and definite concept of the metabolic and chemical changes taking place when benzoic acid is introduced into the organism. No attempt has ever been made to explain why man eliminates benzoic acid almost complete...

Three trials were conducted to evaluate the effect of supplementation of a basal diet with benzoic acid or thymol or a mixture of essential oil blends (MEO) or a combination of benzoic acid with MEO (BMEO) on growth performance of turkey poults. Control groups were fed a basal diet. In trial 1, benzoic acid was supplied at levels of 300 and 1,000 mg/kg. In trial 2, thymol or the MEO were suppli...

Two experiments were conducted to examine the effect of benzoic acid in the diet of lactating sows on urinary pH and nutrient digestibility. In the first experiment, three levels of benzoic acid in the diet were tested (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0%), while in the second experiment only one dietary level of benzoic acid (0.5%) was used. In the second experiment, the urinary excretion of benzoic acid and h...

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...
