    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenyl_alkanoic_acids

    Several bicyclic derivatives of linolenic acid were shown to be generated by alkali isomerization. [7] The stink from the stinkpot turtle (Sternotherus odoratus) contains at least four different foul smelling ω-phenylalkanoic acids, including phenylacetic acid, 3-phenylpropionic acid, 5-phenylpentanoic acid, and 7-phenylheptanoic acid.

  5. 4-Bromophenylacetic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-Bromophenylacetic_acid

    4-Bromophenylacetic acid may be prepared by the addition of a bromine atom to phenylacetic acid through electrophilic aromatic substitution.It was first prepared in the laboratory by treatment of phenylacetic acid with bromine and mercuric oxide; a mixture of the 2- and 4- isomers is made, and the 4- isomer is isolated by fractional crystallization.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiral_derivatizing_agent

    (R)-α-methoxy-α-(trifluoromethyl)- phenylacetic acid (Mosher's acid). In analytical chemistry, a chiral derivatizing agent (CDA), also known as a chiral resolving reagent, is a derivatization reagent that is a chiral auxiliary used to convert a mixture of enantiomers into diastereomers in order to analyze the quantities of each enantiomer present and determine the optical purity of a sample.

  7. Phenethylamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenethylamine

    [3] [4] [64] β-Phenylacetic acid is the primary urinary metabolite of phenethylamine and is produced via monoamine oxidase metabolism and subsequent aldehyde dehydrogenase metabolism. [5] Phenylacetaldehyde is the intermediate product which is produced by monoamine oxidase and then further metabolized into β-phenylacetic acid by aldehyde ...

  8. Phenoxy herbicide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenoxy_herbicide

    The best known phenoxy herbicides are (4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)acetic acid , 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T). [2] Analogues of each of these three compounds, with an extra methyl group attached next to the carboxylic acid, were subsequently commercialised as mecoprop, dichlorprop and fenoprop.

  9. Phenylacetaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenylacetaldehyde

    Phenylacetaldehyde occurs extensively in nature because it can be biosynthetically derived from the amino acid phenylalanine.Natural sources of the compound include chocolate, [3] buckwheat, [4] flowers, and communication pheromones from various insect orders. [5]
