Gortner, Willis A. published the artcileRelation of chemical structure to plant growth-regulator activity in the pineapple plant. V. Post-harvest delay of senescence of pineapple fruit, Name: 2-(4-(tert-Butyl)phenoxy)acetic acid, the publication is Botanical Gazette (Chicago) (1969), 130(2), 87-97, database is CAplus.
The effects of 369 compounds, including 94 phenoxyacetic acids, 43 other phenoxy acids, 23 phenylacetic acids, 15 hydrocinnamic acids, 9 benzoic acids, 7 salicylic acids, 48 naphthalene derivatives, 22 indole acids, 5 hydrazine derivatives, and 8 cinnamic acids, for postharvest delay of senescence of pineapple fruit (Ananas comosus) were determined Seventy-six of the compounds were active, and 27 were highly active in delaying senescence. In the phenoxyacetic acid series, high activity was obtained from some halogen-substituted acids but not generally from Me-substituted acids. In the phenoxy-¦Á-propionic acid series, high activity was not observed for a number of halogen- and Me-substituted acids. None of the substituted phenoxy acids other than HOAc and ¦Á- propionic showed even moderate activity. An appreciable number of Cl-substituted phenylacetic acids and several benzoic acids showed activity. None of the phenylalkylcarboxylic acids other than HOAc showed even moderate activity. None of the salicylic acid, phthalic acids, or phthalamic acids showed any activity. All hydrazine derivatives were inactive.
Botanical Gazette (Chicago) published new progress about 1798-04-5. 1798-04-5 belongs to catalysis-chemistry, auxiliary class Carboxylic acid,Benzene,Ether, name is 2-(4-(tert-Butyl)phenoxy)acetic acid, and the molecular formula is C12H16O3, Name: 2-(4-(tert-Butyl)phenoxy)acetic acid.
