Abstract
The syntheses of 2-nitrobenzyl and 1(2-nitrophenyl)ethyl esters of the plant hormones, gibberellin A(4), abscisic acid, jasmonic acid, 1-nap hthylacetic acid and salicylic acid are described. These esters are re adily photolysed to the corresponding free acids and, thus, are suitab le for the photo-release of these hormones after loading into plant ce lls.
