Imazethapyr is an imidazole compound used as a selective herbicide. It is applied preplant incorporated, preemergence, at cracking, and postemergence. The compound controls weeds by reducing the levels of three branched-chain aliphatic amino acids, isoleucine, leucine and valine, through the inhibition of aceto-hydroxyacid synthase, an enzyme common to the biosynthetic pathway for these amino acids. This inhibition causes a disruption in protein synthesis which, in turn, leads to an interference in DNA synthesis and cell growth. The compound is used to control grasses and broadleaved weeds including barnyardgrass, crabgrass, cocklebur, panicums, pigweeds, nightshade, mustard, smartweed, velvetleaf, jimsonweed, foxtails, seedling johnsongrass, lambsquarters, morningglory and others. Tolerant crops include soybeans, peanuts, dry and edible beans, peas, alfalfa and imidazolinone resistant/tolerant corn. Additional research is being conducted on other leguminous crops. Acetolactate synthase inhibition is the primary mechanism of action of imazethapyr (IM).

Sodium sulfanilate is a salt of sulphanilic acid and has been used to monitor the degree of renal dysfunction in dogs.

Tiaprost is a synthetic analog of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) patented by Hoechst A.-G. as an estrus-synchronizing agent for veterinary medicine. Tiaprost treatment reduced the interval from calving to conception in multiparous cows, but it delayed conception and reduced the conception rate in primiparous cows. Treatment with tiaprost impaired reproductive performance in primiparous cows

Saroglitazar, a dual peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor PPAR-α/γ agonist, was an emerging therapeutic option on glycemic and lipid parameters. The Zydus Group has launched LipaglynTM ((Saroglitazar) in India for diabetic dyslipidemia and hypertriglyceridemia with type 2 diabetes mellitus not controlled by statin therapy. In addition, saroglitazar participated in phase II clinical trials that completed enrolment in patients with primary biliary cholangitis and in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

Zidebactam (also known as WCK 5107), a beta-lactam enhancer that belongs to the bicyclo-acyl hydrazide series. This drug inhibits the penicillin-binding protein and is participating in phase I clinical trial to treat the bacterial infection.

Etoxeridine (Carbetidine or Wy2039), a piperidine derivative, is a narcotic analgetic.

Sudexanox is a xanthone derivative patented by French pharmaceutical company Roussel-UCLAF for the treatment of allergy, allergic asthma, and asthmatic bronchitis. In preclinical studies, Sudexanox possesses potent activity in the IgE-induced rat passive cutaneous anaphylaxis model.

Olodanrigan (EMA-401) is an angiotensin II type 2 receptor antagonist. Olodanrigan may act on paracrine/autocrine mechanisms at peripheral nerve terminals, or intracrine mechanisms, to reduce neuropathic pain signalling in AngII/NGF/TRPV1-convergent pathways. Olodanrigan is being developed by Novartis for the treatment of neuropathic pain.
