Cyanoguanidine is an antimicrobial agent that inhibits the growth of bacteria by interfering with the synthesis of folic acid. This inhibits the production of DNA and protein, thereby leading to cell death. Cyanoguanidine has been shown to be effective in a model system for blood sampling and has been used as a pharmacological treatment for infectious diseases such as malaria. The optimum concentration for cyanoguanidine is between 5-20 mM, depending on the bacterial species. It can be synthesized from sulfamoyl chloride and dicyandiamide, which are commercially available chemicals. The analytical method for determining the inhibitory effects of cyanoguanidine on bacterial growth is plasma mass spectrometry.

2-Cyano-5-fluoropyridine is a potential antitubercular agent that has shown penetrability in the central nervous system and activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is orally active at low doses, and has been shown to be an effective inhibitor of mycobacterial growth and lipid synthesis. In addition, this compound also has antimycobacterial activity against M. avium complex and M. ulcerans, and is a potent inhibitor of β-amyloid aggregation.

3-Cyanoethylbenzoic acid is an anthropogenic compound that is produced by the Friedel-Crafts reaction between benzoyl chloride and acrylonitrile in the presence of a base. 3-Cyanoethylbenzoic acid is used as a solvent for chromatographic methods, such as gradient elution, ion exchange, and reversed phase. 3-Cyanoethylbenzoic acid has been used to determine the optical purity of benzoate salts and amides. This compound can be taken orally in solid oral dosage form or enterically in liquid oral dosage form. 3-Cyanoethylbenzoic acid interacts with other drugs that are metabolized by CYP3A4, such as erythromycin, to produce an active metabolite (N-desmethyldesipramide).

3-Cyano-2-methylphenylboronic acid is a high quality compound that can be used as a reagent, intermediate, or building block in the synthesis of complex compounds. This chemical is also useful as a speciality chemical and research chemical. 3-Cyano-2-methylphenylboronic acid has versatile uses in organic synthesis due to its versatility in reactions and building blocks.

Ethyl 2,3-dicyanopropionate is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in organic solvents. It has the molecular formula CHClNOS and the molecular weight of 138.1 g/mol. This compound has a melting point of 92 °C and can be purchased as a mixture of cis and trans isomers. The cis form melts at 93 °C and the trans form melts at 88 °C. Ethyl 2,3-dicyanopropionate is synthesized from chlorobenzene by dehydrating it with hydrochloric acid in an organic solvent. It can also be prepared by reacting ethyl cyanoacetate with ammonia in an inert atmosphere. Impurities may include chloride, sulfoxide, or imine.

Phycocyanobilin is a chromophore found in blue-green algae and cyanobacteria. It is a component of the holoprotein phycocyanin and aids in the harvesting of light energy. This biliverdin derivative is converted to phycocyanorubin by biliverdin reductase in mammalian cells. The addition of phycocyanobilin to human cells leads to potent inhibition of NADPH oxidase. It also binds to human serum albumin (HSA). Structurally, Phycocyanin shares many similarities to bilirubin and biliverdin.
