  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. Paraben - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraben

    Reaction of a general paraben with hypochlorous acid (HClO) to form mono- and di- chlorinated products. Arrow pushing mechanism of the formation of a mono-chlorinated paraben. Chlorination of propylparaben over time in water at 20 °C (68 °F) containing 0.5 μM propylparaben and 50 μM free chlorine.

  4. Benzalkonium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzalkonium_chloride

    Benzoic acid uses hydroxylation (adding a hydroxyl group) to form p-hydroxybenzoic acid. Dimethylbenzylamine can then be converted into ammonia by performing demethylation twice, which removes both methyl groups, followed by debenzylation, removing the benzyl group using hydrogenation . [ 52 ]

  5. Rotating biological contactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_biological_contactor

    Aeration is provided by the rotating action, which exposes the media to the air after contacting them with the wastewater, facilitating the degradation of the pollutants being removed. The degree of wastewater treatment is related to the amount of media surface area and the quality and volume of the inflowing wastewater.

  6. Sodium benzoate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_benzoate

    Although the maximum rate of biotransformation of benzoic acid to hippuric acid varied between 17.2 and 28.8 mg.kg-1.h-1 among the six individuals, the mean value (23.0 mg.kg-1.h-1) was fairly close to that provided by daily maximum dose (0.5 g.kg-1.day-1) recommended in the treatment of hyperammonaemia in patients with inborn errors of ureagenesis

  7. Benzoin condensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoin_condensation

    Mechanism of the benzoin addition. In this reaction, one aldehyde donates a proton and one aldehyde accepts a proton. Some aldehydes can only donate protons, such as 4-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde, whereas benzaldehyde is both a proton acceptor and donor. In this way it is possible to synthesise mixed benzoins, i.e. products with different groups ...

  8. Benzoyl chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoyl_chloride

    Benzoyl chloride is produced from benzotrichloride using either water or benzoic acid: [1] C 6 H 5 CCl 3 + H 2 O → C 6 H 5 COCl + 2 HCl C 6 H 5 CCl 3 + C 6 H 5 CO 2 H → 2 C 6 H 5 COCl + HCl. As with other acyl chlorides, it can be generated from the parent acid and standard chlorinating agents such as phosphorus pentachloride, thionyl ...

  9. Hammett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammett_equation

    Scheme 2. Hydrolysis of benzoic acid esters. Reaction constants are known for many other reactions and equilibria. Here is a selection of those provided by Hammett himself (with their values in parentheses): the hydrolysis of substituted cinnamic acid ester in ethanol/water (+1.267) the ionization of substituted phenols in water (+2.008)
