Pyruvate is an intermediary organic acid metabolite in glycolysis and the first of the Embden Meyerhoff pathways that can pass readily in or out of the cell. Thus, the addition of sodium pyruvate to tissue culture medium provides both an energy source and a carbon skeleton for anabolic processes. Furthermore, it assists with maintaining certain specialized cells, is useful when cloning, and may be necessary when the serum concentration is reduced in the medium.

N-(3-Aminopropyl)-n-dodecylpropane-1,3-diamine, also called N,N-bis(3-aminopropyl)dodecylamine and laurylamine dipropylenediamine, is dodecylamine substituted with 2 propylamine units. Laurylamine dipropylenediamine is a non-ionic surfactant, antimicrobial agent, preservative, emulsifying agent, dispersing agent, corrosion inhibitor and an anti-static agent used in hair products.

Used for synthesis of dihydropyran-4-ones

Tert-butylisocyanate is a reactive chemical that contains a carboxylate group. It is an ester hydrochloride that can be synthesized by reacting trifluoroacetic acid with molybdenum trioxide. This compound has been studied using X-ray crystal structures and the intramolecular hydrogen transfer reaction between two nitrogen atoms in the molecule. Tert-butylisocyanate is stable in solution because it does not react with water or alkalis, but does react with sodium carbonate, forming sodium cyanate and tetrabutylammonium hydroxide. Tert-butylisocyanate reacts with inorganic acids such as sulfuric acid to form its corresponding salts. The chelate ligand of tert-butylisocyanate prevents it from reacting with transition metals such as copper and iron, but will react with zinc metal.
