Methyl benzoate is an organic compound. It is an ester with the chemical formula C 6 H 5 COOCH 3, sometimes abbreviated as PhCO 2 Me, where Ph and Me are phenyl and methyl, respectively. Its structure is C 6 H 5 −C(=O)−O−CH 3. It is a colorless liquid that is poorly soluble in water, but miscible with organic solvents.
The effects visible on whole plants are chlorosis and desiccation: several hypotheses were advanced regarding the molecular-level interactions which might explain these symptoms. [11] The now-accepted explanation for the damage is that these compounds inhibit the enzyme protoporphyrinogen oxidase , which leads to an accumulation of ...
IARC group 2B substances, mixtures and exposure circumstances are those that have been classified as "possibly carcinogenic to humans" by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as [1] This category is used when there is limited evidence of carcinogenicity in humans and less than sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals.
Benzyl benzoate is an effective and inexpensive topical treatment for human scabies. [7] It has vasodilating and spasmolytic effects and is present in many asthma and whooping cough drugs. [8] It is also used as an excipient in some testosterone-replacement medications (like Nebido) for treating hypogonadism. [9]
Acibenzolar-S-methyl is the ISO common name [3] for an organic compound that is used as a fungicide. Unusually, it is not directly toxic to fungi but works by inducing systemic acquired resistance , the natural defence system of plants.
In humans, cypermethrin is deactivated by enzymatic hydrolysis to several carboxylic acid metabolites, which are eliminated in the urine. Worker exposure to the chemical can be monitored by measurement of the urinary metabolites, while severe overdosage may be confirmed by quantitation of cypermethrin in blood or plasma.
MBDB is a ring substituted amphetamine and an analogue of MDMA.Like MDMA, it has a methylenedioxy substitution at the 3 and 4 position on the aromatic ring; this is perhaps the most distinctive feature that structurally define analogues of MDMA, in addition to their unique effects, and as a class they are often referred to as "entactogens" to differentiate between typical stimulant ...
Meprobamate—marketed as Miltown by Wallace Laboratories and Equanil by Wyeth, among others—is a carbamate derivative used as an anxiolytic drug. It was the best-selling minor tranquilizer for a time, but has largely been replaced by the benzodiazepines due to their wider therapeutic index (lower risk of toxicity at therapeutically prescribed doses) and lower incidence of serious side effects.
