Application
- Paper Title: A familiar ring to it: biosynthesis of plant benzoic acids - This study explores the biosynthetic pathways leading to benzoic acid in plants, important for understanding plant metabolism and engineering synthetic pathways for production of benzoic acid derivatives (Widhalm & Dudareva, 2015).
- Paper Title: Pd (II)-catalysed meta-C–H functionalizations of benzoic acid derivatives - Describes a method for the meta-C–H functionalization of benzoic acid derivatives, which could be pivotal for synthetic chemistry applications (Li et al., 2016).
