as I am blind, I’m not sure if you’re all posting images of the molecules you propose, Plus I’m no expert in chemistry. however, just want to suggest deschlorobupropion. that would be bupropion without the chlorine atom in the molecule. Of course, that chlorine atom would have to be replaced by a hydrogen. does anyone know what the pharmacological properties of this molecule could be?
This one I'm quite fond of. So many uses.![]()
EDTA
EthyleneDiamineTetra-Acetic acid
Using EDTA as the solvent in the Birch Reduction [Li metal; anhydrous NH3 or ammonium nitrate, NH3+NO2] of PPA or ephedrine to amp or methamphetamine makes the reaction work in just 60 seconds aka 1 minute!

It also inhibits a bunch of enzymes, especially proteases (pretty much anything with a metal active site), can elute proteins of nickel chromatography resin, can be bacteriostatic, and can stabilize unstable things due to metals.It's a chelating agent - so it's often used to treat metal poisoning.
