Introduction of halogen into the ring of PhCH2CO2H increases the physiol. activity, which is greatest with Cl; Br is less active; iodine in the p-position does not increase activity. Most active are the 2-halo, least active the 4-halo derivatives, while the 3-halo derivatives are intermediate. This is the reverse order of activity in comparison with phenoxyacetic acids. Introduction of a 2nd halogen does not change the physiol. activity, while a 3rd halogen can either reduce or increase activity. A Me group in the p-position reduces the activity, and 3 Me groups reduce it very much. A smaller decrease in activity is caused by a p-MeO group. Halogenation of m-MeC6H4OCH2CO2H causes increased activity, the greatest activity resulting from 4-substitution, and lesser activity from 2-halogenation. With 2,4-D as the standard which gave 100% increase of wheat coleoptile growth at 1 mg./l. concentration, and heteroauxin as the standard which gave 100% increase of kidneybean root growth, the following physiol. results were obtained in plant tests; (in above order, with 1, 10, and 100 mg./l. concentrations tested for the wheat growth, and 10, 50 and 100 mg./l. concentrations for the kidney bean growth). Substituted phenylacetic acids (substituents given): H, m. 76°, -2%, +45%, -, -, +4%, 0%; ο-Cl, m. 95°, +70%, +84%, – +5%, +150%, -; m-Cl, m. 74°, +9%, +61%, -, -, +62%, +260%; p-Cl, m. 106°, +13%, +71%, -, -, +55%, +91%; ο-Br, m. 104°, +7%, +71%, -, -, +33%, +104%; p-Br, m. 114°, +2%, +80%, -, -, 0%, +8%; p-I, m. 135°, -4%, -6%, -, -, 0%, +21%; 2,4-di-Cl, m. 131°, +10%, +80%, -, -, +58%, +162%; 2,5-di-Cl, m. 105°, +13%, +80%, -, -, +30%, +120%; 2,3,4-tri-Cl, m. 136°, +40%, +71%, -, -, +150%, -60%; 2,4,5-tri-Cl analog, m. 126°, 0%, +56%, -, -, +98%, +100%; p-MeO, m. 83°, -, +20%, +20%, -, 0%, 0%; p-Me, m. 92°, -, +5%, +6%, -, 0%, 0%; 4,3-ClMe, m. 83°, +22%, +73%, -, -, +7%, +69%; 4,3-BrMe, m. 81°, +20%, +71%, -, -, 14%, +90%; 6,3-ClMe, m. 86°, -2%, +40%, -, -, 0%, -25%; 6,3-BrMe, m. 82°, -8%, +59%, -, -, +66%, +66%;, 2,4-ClMe, m. 106°, +13%, +44%, -, -, +12%, +33%; 3,4-Me(MeO), m. 127°, -, +1%, +34%, -, 0%, 0%; 2,4,5-Tri-Me, m. 117°, -, +3%, -6%, -, -21%, -25%; 2,4-Me(MeO), m. 107°, -, -12%, +25%, -, 0%, 0%. In substituted naphthylalkylcarboxylic acids it was shown that removal of CO2H from the ring by more than 1 C atom reduces the physiol. activity and the compounds with an acid group at the 1-position on C10H8 skeleton are the only active ones; substances with 2-substitution are inactive. Substitution of alkyl groups or MeO groups into the C10H8 ring leads to sharp decline in activity. The following results were obtained in biol. tests (same standards as above): Substituted 1-naphthaleneacetic acids (substituents given): H, m. 131°, +77%, + 169%, -, -, +92%, -; 4-MeO, m. 144°, +2%, -12%, -, +10%, +27%, +9%; 4-Me, m. 148°, +1%, +1%, +4%, +36%, +24%, -10%; 4-Et, m. 129°, +9%, -, -, +9%, +6%, +27%; 4-Pr, m. 119°, -5%, -7%, -, +24%, +50%, +32%; 4-Bu, m. 110°, -, -14%, -, +21%, +20%, +33%. 1-C10H7COCH2CH2CO2H, m. 132°, +9%, +60%, -, -, -, -; 1-C10H7(CH2)3CO2H, m. 1602, +9%, +46%, -, -, -, -; 2-C10H7COCH2CH2CO2H, m. 174°, -25%, -9%, -, -, -, -, 2-C10H7(CH2)3CO2H, m. 109°, -3%, -5%, -, -, -, -. Most of the above acids were prepared by the Willgerodt reaction others through the nitriles from the corresponding benzyl halides.
