Benzoic Acids

<p>2-Iodobenzoic acid methyl ester is a palladium complex that can be used as a catalyst for the hydrolysis of ketoesters, imines, and halides. The reaction mechanism involves the coordination of the metal center to the carboxylate or amine group on the substrate, followed by a nucleophilic attack at the benzoate or chloride group. The resulting product is an alkyl halide. 2-Iodobenzoic acid methyl ester has been shown to catalyze the cross-coupling of diphenyl ethers with various amines in water and in organic solvents.</p>

<p>o-Sulfobenzoic acid anhydride is a chemical that belongs to the class of inorganic acids. It is a white crystalline solid with a melting point of 107°C and can be found in its pure form or as sodium salts. o-Sulfobenzoic acid anhydride is stable when exposed to light and can be used in detergent compositions. It also has pharmacokinetic properties, which are affected by the presence of cationic polymers. This chemical is metabolized by microorganisms through hydrogen bonding interactions and has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against infectious bacteria, such as erythromycin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis.</p>
