Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) is an endogenous peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR-α) agonist.It is a naturally occurring ethanolamide lipid that regulates feeding and body weight in vertebrates ranging from mice to pythons.
Hydroxylamine can also be used to highly selectively cleave asparaginyl-glycine peptide bonds in peptides and proteins. [32] It also bonds to and permanently disables (poisons) heme-containing enzymes. It is used as an irreversible inhibitor of the oxygen-evolving complex of photosynthesis on account of its similar structure to water.
Aminoethylethanolamine or AEEA is an organic base used in the industrial manufacture of fuel and oil additives, chelating agents, and surfactants. References [ edit ]
Oleylamine is an organic compound with a molecular formula C 18 H 35 NH 2. [1] It is an unsaturated fatty amine related to the fatty acid oleic acid . The pure compound is a clear and colorless liquid.
Fatty amines are commonly prepared from fatty acids; which are themselves obtained from natural sources, typically seed-oils.The overall reaction is sometimes referred to as the Nitrile Process [3] and begins with a reaction between the fatty acid and ammonia at high temperature (>250 °C) and in the presence of a metal oxide catalyst (e.g., alumina or zinc oxide) to give the fatty nitrile.
DEA is used as a surfactant and a corrosion inhibitor.It is used to remove hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide from natural gas.. Diethanolamine is widely used in the preparation of diethanolamides and diethanolamine salts of long-chain fatty acids that are formulated into soaps and surfactants used in liquid laundry and dishwashing detergents, cosmetics, shampoos and hair conditioners.

Diallylamine is a precursor to industrial products. Functionalized allylamines have pharmaceutical applications. Pharmaceutically important allylamines include flunarizine and naftifine; the latter spurred the development of Petasis' borono-Mannich reaction.
Ergoline is a core structure in many alkaloids and their synthetic derivatives. Ergoline alkaloids were first characterized in ergot.Some of these are implicated in the condition of ergotism, which can take a convulsive form [1] or a gangrenous form.
