2,5-Dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl formate is a solubilized ATP analog that has been clinically developed for the treatment of cancer. This drug binds to cell membranes and causes alkylation of the acidic phospholipids in the membrane, leading to increased permeability of the membrane and release of intracellular components. 2,5-Dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl formate also interacts with lysosomes and increases their acidity, which may lead to an increase in lysosomal enzyme activity. This drug has been shown to inhibit tumor growth in a mouse model by binding to erythrocytes while it was being simultaneously administered intravenously. The chemical structures of this drug are closely related to those of phaseolus, which is known for its anticancer effects.

N,N-Dimethylcyclohexanecarboxamide is an acid salt of besylate that is used as a drug for the treatment of hyperglycemia. It has been shown to have a rapid onset and short duration of action. The chemical name for N,N-Dimethylcyclohexanecarboxamide is 1-[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl]-4-methyl-1,4-dihydropyridine 2,4-dicarboxylic acid methyl ester. This compound inhibits insulin release from the pancreas and stimulates glucagon release from the alpha cells in the pancreas. These effects lead to an increase in blood glucose levels.

2-(Naphthalen-1-yl)ethanethioamide is a phytohormone that belongs to the class of ethylene. It is involved in the regulation of many processes, including apical dominance, peduncle elongation, leaf senescence, and fruit ripening. 2-(Naphthalen-1-yl)ethanethioamide is an active form of ethylene that binds to the receptor protein ETR1. This binding stimulates the synthesis of proteins that regulate these processes. It has been shown to be effective in treating flowers with inflorescence stems and fruits with peduncles. The transformation process may involve hydrocarbon molecules with long aliphatic chains.

5-(Trifluoromethyl)-2-furaldehyde is a trifluoroacetate that is used for the trifluoromethylation of organic compounds. It can be used to produce 5,5-difluoro-2-pentanol, which is an organic solvent. The reaction proceeds through an electrophilic substitution mechanism.

1-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1H-imidazole-2(3H)-thione is a crystalline solid that belongs to the class of imidazoles. It has been synthesized by reacting 1,2-dibromoethane with sodium methoxide in methanol. The compound was found to have a melting point of about 183°C and a molecular weight of 212.06 g/mol. This compound has been shown to interact with methanol, methoxide, and ethoxy groups. Crystallization occurs when the substance is heated to about 183°C in vacuum and then cooled slowly.
