  2. Benzoic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoic_acid

    Benzoic acid is cheap and readily available, so the laboratory synthesis of benzoic acid is mainly practiced for its pedagogical value. It is a common undergraduate preparation. Benzoic acid can be purified by recrystallization from water because of its high solubility in hot water and poor solubility in cold water. The avoidance of organic ...

  3. Benzenesulfonic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzenesulfonic_acid

    Benzenesulfonic acid (conjugate base benzenesulfonate) is an organosulfur compound with the formula C 6 H 6 O 3 S.It is the simplest aromatic sulfonic acid.It forms white deliquescent sheet crystals or a white waxy solid that is soluble in water and ethanol, slightly soluble in benzene and insoluble in nonpolar solvents like diethyl ether.

  4. Sodium benzenesulfonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_benzenesulfonate

    Sodium benzenesulfonate is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 SO 3 Na.It is white, water-soluble solid, It is produced by the neutralization benzenesulfonic acid with sodium hydroxide.

  5. Solubility chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_chart

    The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.

  6. Sodium benzoate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_benzoate

    Benzoic acid is generally not used directly due to its poor water solubility. Concentration as a food preservative is limited by the FDA in the U.S. to 0.1% by weight. [ 8 ] Sodium benzoate is also allowed as an animal food additive at up to 0.1%, per the Association of American Feed Control Officials. [ 9 ]

  7. Benzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene

    In the body, benzene is enzymatically converted to a series of oxidation products including muconic acid, phenylmercapturic acid, phenol, catechol, hydroquinone and 1,2,4-trihydroxybenzene. Most of these metabolites have some value as biomarkers of human exposure, since they accumulate in the urine in proportion to the extent and duration of ...

  8. Sodium phenoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_phenoxide

    A related, updated procedure uses sodium methoxide instead of sodium hydroxide: [3] NaOCH 3 + HOC 6 H 5 → NaOC 6 H 5 + HOCH 3. Sodium phenoxide can also be produced by the "alkaline fusion" of benzenesulfonic acid, whereby the sulfonate groups are displaced by hydroxide: C 6 H 5 SO 3 Na + 2 NaOH → C 6 H 5 OH + Na 2 SO 3

  9. Benzyl alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzyl_alcohol

    It oxidizes rapidly in healthy individuals to benzoic acid, conjugated with glycine in the liver, and excreted as hippuric acid. Very high concentrations can result in toxic effects including respiratory failure, vasodilation, hypotension, convulsions, and paralysis. Benzyl alcohol is toxic to neonates and is associated with the gasping syndrome.
