Methyl 5-methoxypyrazinecarboxylate is an organic compound that belongs to the group of triazoles. It has been used as a pesticide for the control of plant pathogenic fungi, nematodes and insects, such as dextrose, chloride, oxadiazoles and agriculturally. This product is effective against pests at low doses. Methyl 5-methoxypyrazinecarboxylate inhibits the synthesis of proteins in plants by inhibiting chitin synthase enzymes in fungi and nematodes. It also inhibits the synthesis of proteins in insects by interfering with the synthesis of proteins involved in cell division.

2-Bromo-6-hydroxybenzoic acid is a nucleophilic compound with a bromine atom at the 2 position. It is used in organic synthesis as a building block in the preparation of amides and other functional groups. This efficient preparation can be achieved by treating anilines with sodium nitrite and hydroxylamine in ethanol.

5-Vinylnicotinic acid methyl ester belongs to the group of antimicrobial agents. It is a chemical compound that has been shown to be effective against cervical cancer and may have potential as an anticancer drug. 5-Vinylnicotinic acid methyl ester inhibits the growth of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in women, which is a hormone necessary for ovulation and pregnancy. This compound also inhibits the growth of viruses, such as herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), and bacteria, such as dittrichia sp., which causes inflammation of the throat. 5-Vinylnicotinic acid methyl ester has also been shown to inhibit protein synthesis in human osteosarcoma cells at low concentrations, but not at high concentrations.

Ethyl 3-hydroxypent-4-enoate is an enantiomer of crotylboration. It is a stepwise, chemoenzymatic, stereoselective synthesis of azide from chiral diols such as D-mannitol. This process involves the reaction of an alcohol with sodium azide in the presence of a base and solvent to give the corresponding hydrazone. The hydrazone reacts with crotylborane to form an epoxide with two adjacent hydroxy groups. This epoxide can then be reduced to an alcohol or oxidized to a ketone, both of which are valuable synthetic intermediates that can be used in organic chemistry. Ethyl 3-hydroxypent-4-enoate is also a synthetic intermediate for other compounds such as pharmaceutical drugs and agrochemicals.

Methyl 2-acetylpyridine-4-carboxylate is a photocurrent generating compound that can be used in organic solar cells. It has been shown to enhance the performance of organic solar cells by acting as a bidentate ligand for ruthenium complexes. Methyl 2-acetylpyridine-4-carboxylate is synthesized from the diacid, acetylene and formaldehyde. It can be used as an electron acceptor in coordination chemistry involving anthracene to produce a Ru(II) complex. The electron donor is usually a metal ion such as ruthenium, which can be activated by light or heat to generate electrons.
