Trimethylxanthine has been shown to be effective in wastewater treatment as it removes organic pollutants from water by oxidizing them with hydrogen peroxide or chlorine gas.

5-Amino-1H-imidazole-4-carboxamide is a potent inhibitor of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH). This enzyme converts inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP) to xanthosine 5'-monophosphate (XMP) and is essential for the synthesis of purines. By inhibiting IMPDH, 5-amino-1H-imidazole-4-carboxamide prevents the formation of XMP, which leads to the depletion of purines, thereby inhibiting DNA synthesis. In addition to its role as an anti-inflammatory agent, this drug has been shown to reduce disease activity in bowel disease patients by reducing nitrate reductase activity. The molecule has also been shown to inhibit protein kinases such as PKC and MAPK/ERK kinases.

4-Bromoindole is a model compound that serves as a building block for the synthesis of pharmaceutically important compounds. 4-Bromoindole has been shown to have high catalytic rates for the oxidative coupling of zirconium oxide. This compound can also be used in asymmetric synthesis because it is able to form both R and S enantiomers in moderate yield. The reaction mechanism is thought to involve a nucleophilic attack by bromide on the carbonyl group, followed by elimination of hydrogen bromide from this intermediate. 4-Bromoindole can be synthesized in three ways: (1) via an oxidative coupling reaction with ZrOCl2 and H2O2; (2) via an oxidative coupling reaction with ZrOCl2 and HBr; or (3) by reacting 4-bromoaniline with CuSO4 and Mn(NO3)2.

3-Quinuclidinol is an alkaloid that is found in the bark of Erythroxylum coca, a plant that has been used for centuries to combat hunger and altitude sickness. It is also found in the leaves of various plants such as khat, betel nut and tea leaves. 3-Quinuclidinol is a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist, which means it stimulates the receptors in the brain that are responsible for transmitting messages from one nerve cell to another. 3-Quinuclidinol also activates certain types of protein kinase enzymes, which play a role in regulating metabolism.

8-Hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxylic acid is a 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid derivative that is often used as a biomarker of urine. The 8OHQA can be synthesized from 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid by the action of xanthine oxidase and hydrogen peroxide, and it has been shown to be an inhibitor of protein synthesis. This inhibition may be due to its ability to form hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl group on the ribose side chain and its ability to coordinate with metals. 8OHQA has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects in bladder cancer cells, which may be due to its ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis.
