Menadiol sodium sulfate is a metabolite of one of the forms of vitamin K4, which was found in a biofluid of rodents.

Eucatropine is known as an anticholinergic agent, which acts as antagonist of muscarinic cholinergic receptors.

Moxilubant is an orally active leukotriene B4 antagonist patented by Ciba-Geigy A.-G. and studied for psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease treatment. Moxilubant inhibits LTB4 signaling with a potency of 2–4 nM. In a phase 1 study in 10 healthy volunteers, Moxilubant was administered orally once or twice daily for 7 days at doses ranging from 100 to 500 mg. At dose levels of 150 mg and above, LTB4 pathway inhibition reached at least 75%. At doses of 300 mg and above, pathway inhibition reached 100%. A Phase 2 study was conducted in 24 patients with COPD treated with 240 mg/day Moxilubant for 4 weeks. In this study, there were no changes in sputum cell counts or biomarkers or in spirometry measures, even though plasma levels of Moxilubant were sufficient to significantly reduce pathway signaling.

Pyrithiobac sodium (also known as PE350) is a carboxyphenylthiodimethoxypyrimidine derivative patented by Kumiai Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. and Ihara Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. as herbicide and commercialized for uses in cotton cultivation. Pyrithiobac acts as a potent inhibitor of Acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS), also known as acetolactate synthase, that catalyzes the first reaction in the pathway for synthesis of the branched-chain amino acids. Pyrithiobac is applied POST at 70 g/ha in cotton (1- to 2-leaf stage) for effective control of several broadleaf weeds such as Xatithium stmmarium, Ipomoea spp., Abutilon theophrasli, Sesbania exaltata (hemp sesbania), Salvia reflexa, Sida spinosa, Amaranthus spp., etc. When applied at this rate, wheat, soybean and grain sorghum may be rotated with cotton with no crop toxicity to these crops. Cotton is very tolerant of Pyrithiobac even at rates as high as 112 g/ha. It may also be applied PPI or PRE in cotton to control Cassia occidentalis, a troublesome broadleaf weed. Higher rates cause injury to cotton. However, caution may need to be exercised, as insecticides (malathion, fenvalerate, methomyl, chlorpyriphos, etc.) applied along with Pyrithiobac, as mixtures are likely to make cotton sensitive to the herbicide.

Vincantril is a vinca alkaloid. It is antianoxia agent.

Latrunculin B originates from Latrunculia (now Negombata) magnifica, a sponge from the Red Sea. Latrunculin B inhibits the assembly of actin microfilaments by 1:1 molecular binding of free actin monomers in the cell cytoplasm. It may be a potential therapeutic agent for glaucoma. Latrunculin B induced destabilization of the actin microfilament and apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner, as demonstrated by morphological changes and nuclear condensation in the PC3M cells. In addition, it resulted in an increase in the levels of gamma-H2AX recruitment, implicating the induction of DNA damage, including double-strand breaks. Induction of Bax, with little effect on Bcl-2 expression, indicated that actin disruption causes apoptosis through activation of Bax signaling in PC3M cells. This data might helps to develop the strategy for actin-based anticancer chemotherapy against highly metastatic prostate cancer.

Dextrorphan is an active metabolite of dextromethorphan, is an antitussive agent, which was found in cough medicines. Dextrorphan is a noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonist, sigma 1 receptor agonist, so as is an agonist of mu and kappa opioid receptors. In addition was found, that dextrorphan possessed anticonvulsive and neuroprotective effects.

Bathocuproine is a promising organic material of a hole blocking layer in organic light-emitting diodes or an electron buffer layer in organic photovoltaic cells. When a thin layer of bathocuproine is inserted between the metal electrode and the organic layer of the organic semiconductor device, the electron injection/collection efficiency at the interface is significantly improved. As an organic electronic material bathocuproine useful as OLED electron transporter and hole blocker. Bathocuproine sulphonate acts as a specific chelator of monovalent copper Cu(I).

FLUDIOXONIL, a phenylpyrrole derivative, is a broad-spectrum fungicide for control of a range of diseases on fruit and vegetables. It may represent a health threat to consumers.
