Alkoxy-benzoic acids: Some lacking structures and rationalization of the molecular features governing their crystalline architectures
The crystalline structure of four alkoxy-substituted benzoic acids, namely 3-(methoxy)benzoic acid (I), (with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit); 3,4-di(ethoxy)benzoic acid (II), 3,5-di(ethoxy)benzoic acid (III) and 3,4,5-tri(ethoxy)benzoic acid (IV) are presented, and the details of...
