Tetrahydroquinolin-2(1H)-one is a hydrobromide that has been found in the environment as an environmental pollutant. Tetrahydroquinolin-2(1H)-one is used to synthesize amides and has been studied by single-crystal x-ray diffraction. The molecule is centrosymmetric, with a molecular weight of 244.06 g/mol. Tetrahydroquinolin-2(1H)-one can be used as a ligand for metals such as chlorine and magnesium. It does not dissolve in water but does dissolve in organic solvents such as ethers, chloroform, or benzene.

1-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2,8,9-trioxa-5-aza-1-silabicyclo[3.3.3]undecane is an analog of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) that has been shown to have convulsant activity in rats and exhibits functional correlations with GABA in the cerebral cortex. 1-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2,8,9-trioxa-5-aza-1-silabicyclo[3.3.3]undecane is taken up by cells through a chloride channel and can induce chloride efflux from cells in the cerebral cortex. It also inhibits uptake of gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA), which causes increased levels of GABA in the cerebral cortex and increased seizure activity.

Heptyl carbamate is a cholinergic antagonist of the blood disorders. It has been shown to inhibit hydroxy and hiv infection. In vitro assays have shown that heptyl carbamate inhibits the synthesis of fatty acid, thereby reducing cholesterol levels and inhibiting the production of insulin resistance in cells. Heptyl carbamate also binds to the same site on acetylcholinesterase as donepezil, which blocks the breakdown of acetylcholine and leads to an accumulation of this neurotransmitter in nerve cells. This increased concentration of acetylcholine in nerve cells can lead to a reduced incidence of Alzheimer's disease-related symptoms.

5-Chloro-2,2-dimethylpentanenitrile is a nonpolar solvent that can be used as a phase transfer catalyst and reagent for the synthesis of cyclopentanone derivatives. It is also used as a hydrolyzing agent for the synthesis of 1-bromo-3-chloropropane. 5-Chloro-2,2-dimethylpentanenitrile can be used to synthesize cyclic ketones from alkyl halides and 1,1'-oxydiacetonitrile with an acetone or isobutyronitrile as a catalyst.

Pent-1-yn-3-ol is a low molecular weight compound that is classified as an amide. It is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of fatty acids and primary alcohols from acetyl-CoA. Pent-1-yn-3-ol also alkylates amides in proteins, and can be used for the synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles. In order to determine the effects of mononuclear alkali metal ions on organisms, methyl ethyl was added to a mixture of 10 mM potassium hydroxide (KOH) and water. The pH was then adjusted to 4 with hydrochloric acid (HCl). A magnetic stir bar was placed in the flask, and the solution was mixed magnetically at room temperature. The growth rate of Drosophila melanogaster was monitored over time by measuring its wet weight.
