  2. Cyclopentanecarboxylic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclopentanecarboxylic_acid

    It can be produced by the palladium-catalyzed hydrocarboxylation of cyclopentene: [2] C 5 H 8 + CO + H 2 O → C 5 H 9 CO 2 H. An alternative route involves the Favorskii rearrangement, which is a base-induced ring contraction of 2-chlorocyclohexanone to give the ester methyl cyclopentanecarboxylate, which can be hydrolyzed to the carboxylic ...

  7. Phenmetrazine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenmetrazine

    The intermediate alcohol 3-methyl-2-phenylmorpholin-2-ol (1) is converted to a fumarate salt (2) with fumaric acid, then reduced with sodium borohydride to give phenmetrazine free base (3). The free base can be converted to the fumarate salt ( 4 ) by reaction with fumaric acid.

  8. Meprobamate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meprobamate

    Meprobamate—marketed as Miltown by Wallace Laboratories and Equanil by Wyeth, among others—is a carbamate derivative used as an anxiolytic drug. It was the best-selling minor tranquilizer for a time, but has largely been replaced by the benzodiazepines due to their wider therapeutic index (lower risk of toxicity at therapeutically prescribed doses) and lower incidence of serious side effects.

  9. Methyldopa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyldopa

    Methyldopa acts on alpha-2 adrenergic receptors, which are found on the pre synaptic nerve terminal. [1] This inhibits the release of norepinephrine from the presynaptic neuron. The S-enantiomer of methyldopa is a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (LAAD), which converts L-DOPA into dopamine.
