(R)-(-)-1,3-Butanediol is a chiral compound that belongs to the group of organic compounds called diols. It is used in the fermentation of Candida parapsilosis and other yeast species to produce enantiomerically pure (S)-(-)-1,3-butanediol. The racemate can be converted into the two enantiomers by chemical means or by enzymatic resolution. The process for large-scale production is similar to that for ethanol fermentation, but with 2-propanol as substrate instead of glucose. The fermentor has been shown to be effective at producing large quantities of 1,3-butanediol in a short time period.

3-Carboxypropanesulfonamide is a chemical compound that has been shown to have the ability to modulate cardiac cell function. This compound has been shown to be effective in a reaction monitoring technique, which monitors the functional groups and techniques of chemical reactions, in order to introduce this molecule into the cell membrane and alter its potential. 3-Carboxypropanesulfonamide is capable of changing the lipid composition of the membrane by introducing a linker group that can bind with other molecules such as cholesterol or phospholipids. This linker group alters the membrane potential of cells, leading to changes in ion flow and cellular response.

Sodium ethanethiolate is a detergent composition that is used in the manufacturing of other detergents. It has a receptor binding mechanism and binds to the fatty acid component of the lipid bilayer. The hydroxyl group on the ethanethiolate molecule reacts with the hydrophobic region of the lipid bilayer, leading to disruption of membrane function. Sodium-dependent glucose transport is inhibited by sodium ethanethiolate, which also has metabolic disorders as a side effect. It is a bicyclic heterocycle and can be synthesized from p-hydroxybenzoic acid and trifluoroacetic acid. The chemical stability of this compound is high, making it useful for industrial applications.
