Objectives: The project CarePlant aimed to obtain non-toxic compounds with role in plant growth regulation, in order to improve vegetable production, a priority not only in both countries, but worldwide. The objectives of the project were obtain, characterize and biological testing new aromatic carboxylate derivatives with low toxicity and high biodegradability, as well as plant growth regulators. The new compounds were characterized by physicochemical (FTIR-ATR, RMN, MS), thermal (TGA/DSC) and structural (X-ray single-crystal and powder diffractions) methods essentials for establishing the structure, determining intermolecular interactions and the existence of polymorphic forms. Beside experimental investigations, quantum chemical calculation was used to obtain more complete and reliable information about the molecular system. The effect of compounds on rooting vegetable seedlings, seeds germination capacity and plant growth regulation in correlation with photosynthesis and cellular respiration were studied. Team:
