Synthesis, growth, supramolecularity and antibacterial efficacy of 3,4-dimethoxybenzoic acid single crystals

In this paper, we have investigated the antibacterial potentials of organic single crystals, 3,4-dimethoxybenzoic acid (DMBA) grown by the slow evaporation solution growth technique. The crystallinity and structural orientation of as-grown DMBA compound was thoroughly studied using single-crystal X-...
