<p>2-Benzoyl-3-phenylaziridine is a heterocyclic compound that is obtained by the condensation of benzoyl chloride and phenylamine. It is used in the synthesis of azomethine dyes, which are mainly used as textile dyes. The ammonium salt of 2-benzoyl-3-phenylaziridine can be obtained on refluxing the hydrate with thiocyanate and acetonitrile. This transformation has been shown to be dependent on pH with an optimum at pH 8.5.</p>

<p>4-Bromo-2-chloronaphthalen-1-amine is a chemical compound that can be synthesized from acetone and chlorides. The reaction proceeds via a nucleophilic substitution reaction in which one of the chlorine atoms is replaced by an electron pair from acetone. This process occurs when the substituent on the naphthalene ring is not sterically hindered, and it is therefore necessary to use substituents that are electron donors, such as methyl or ethyl groups. 4-Bromo-2-chloronaphthalen-1-amine has been synthesized in Japan by reacting acetone with sodium chloride and bromine at high temperature and pressure. The solvent used was benzene, which was removed after the reaction was complete.</p>

<p>2-Methylbenzene-1,3-dicarbaldehyde is a divalent hydrocarbon that has an oxidation catalyst. This compound is used as an intermediate in the production of drugs and pharmaceuticals. It has been shown to have cardiovascular disorders, such as vasodilatation and hypotension. The mechanism of action is not fully understood but may be related to its ability to act as a nitrovasodilator by increasing nitric oxide (NO) release. 2-Methylbenzene-1,3-dicarbaldehyde also produces psychotic disorders when long term exposure occurs. This compound has been shown to have neurotoxic effects in animal models with long term exposure.</p>

<p>4-Methyl-3-phenylpentanoic acid is a chiral, enantioselective catalyst. It is catalyzed by rhodium and used in the asymmetric synthesis of β-unsaturated amides. This reaction is an example of an esterification that is catalyzed by a chiral, enantioselective reagent. 4-Methyl-3-phenylpentanoic acid has also been shown to be effective for the synthesis of chiral esters.</p>
