2-Chloro-6-(chloromethyl)pyridine (2C6CP) is a chloride precursor that can be used for the synthesis of metal chlorides, such as copper chlorides. 2C6CP is synthesized by reacting thionyl chloride with the substituted pyridine under anhydrous conditions at -78°C. The resultant 2C6CP is then hydrolyzed to produce the desired chloride.
2C6CP has been shown to act as a ligand in coordination chemistry. It was first synthesized by reacting 3-chloropyridine with thionyl chloride and then hydrolyzing it to 2-chloropyridine. This method was later modified to use 4-chlorobenzoyl chloride instead of 3-chloropyridine, producing 2,4-dichloropyridine.

PB-22 is a synthetic cannabinoid, which can be classified as a CB1 receptor agonist. It is one of the many cannabinoids that have been created in an attempt to circumvent drug laws by creating compounds that are similar to those found in cannabis but have different chemical structures. PB-22 has shown to increase locomotor activity and stimulate the cb1 receptor in mice. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and assays were used to determine the binding affinity of PB-22 for the CB1 receptor. The MRS data showed that PB-22 bound with high affinity to the CB1 receptor and had a lower affinity for CB2 receptors. This suggests that PB-22 may be more potent than other synthetic cannabinoids, such as JWH-018 and CP 55,940, which bind better with CB2 receptors than CB1 receptors.
PB-22 is an analog of JWH-073 and has been shown to have a stronger effect on locomotor activity than JWH

N-(2-Phenylethyl)benzenesulfonamide is a biodegradable and aerobic catalyst that is used in the production of nitrates. It can be recycled and has a high solubility, which allows for efficient extraction from wastewater effluents. The reactor system can be operated at an aerobic or anaerobic conditions. N-(2-Phenylethyl)benzenesulfonamide is soluble in water and can be hydrolyzed by acids or bases to release ammonia gas. The process can also be sustainable due to the use of renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, tidal, or biomass power.

6-Chloro-9-(propan-2-yl)-9H-purine is an intermediate in the synthesis of nucleoside analogues. It is obtained by the catalyzed reaction of acetonitrile and purines, which undergoes regioisomerization to form a mixture of 6-chloro-9-(propyl)- and 6-chloro-9-(butyl)purine. This intermediate can be used for the alkynylation of amino acids or peptides with alkynes. The selective formation of one regioisomer can be achieved by using a chiral catalyst or by reacting with an optically active reagent such as (+)-camphor sulfonic acid.
