Inhibitors of the geotropic response in plants. The crystal structures of 2-[(Naphthalen-2-yl)carbamoyl]benzoic acid (β-Naptalam), 2-(Phenylcarbamoyl)-benzoic acid and 2-(5-Phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)benzoic acid

Abstract

The crystal structures of three geotropically active phthalamic acid derivatives have been determined by means of X-ray diffraction and the structural systematics for the series compared. The three acids are conformationally similar and, in contrast to the tendency among carboxylic acids to form hydrogen-bonded dimers, they exist as monomers with intermolecular hydrogen bonding between the carboxylic acid groups and the nitrogen or oxygen of the amide side chains.
