Benzoic Acids

<p>2,3-Diaminobenzoic acid methyl ester is a redox potential catalyst that has been shown to have anticancer activity in vitro and in vivo. It is a 5-ht4 receptor agonist, which causes an increase in the intracellular concentration of cAMP. The anticancer effect of this compound may be due to its ability to inhibit the growth of cancer cells by blocking DNA synthesis and cell division. The biological properties of this drug are not well understood, but it has been shown to have antioxidant effects, as well as proton-reducing and electron-accepting properties. This compound has also been studied electrochemically.</p>

<p>2-Acetylbenzoic acid is a functional molecule that contains an acetyl group. It can form hydrogen bonds with other molecules and has been shown to induce apoptosis in cells. The reaction products of 2-acetylbenzoic acid are malonic acid, acetylsalicylic acid, and 2-benzoylbenzoic acid. These three compounds are made by the addition of hydrogen or hydroxide to the molecule 2-acetylbenzoic acid. The molecule has two functional groups: a carbonyl group and an acetyl group.
