Isophorone is a clear liquid that smells like peppermint. It can be dissolved in water and evaporates somewhat faster than water.

Itaconic acid is a precursor for the synthesis of polymers, chemicals, and fuels, and has anti-inflammatory activity.Itaconic acid can be synthesized by fungi. It is also a macrophage-specific metabolite. It mediates crosstalk between macrophage metabolism and peritoneal tumors.

Levoglucosan (1,6-anhydro-b-D-Glucose) is an anhydrohexose that is the 1,6-anhydro-derivative of beta-D-glucopyranose. It is formed from the pyrolysis of carbohydrates, such as starch and cellulose. Levoglucosan can also be utilized in the synthesis of chiral polymers such as unhydrolysable glucose polymers. Levoglucosan is also produced via caramelization of sugar. Consumption of caramel or caramel-containing sweets can lead to a short-term 5X increase in urinary levels of levoglucosan (from 20 uM mM creatinine to 100 uM mM creatinine).

cis,cis-Muconic acid (cis,cis-2,4-Hexadienedioic acid) is a naturally-occurring organic acid. It is used in the manufacture of several widely-used consumer plastics. Its microbial production via extending the shikimate pathway has been reported.

Benzofuroxan is used as a starting material for the synthesis of other compounds, such as drugs and other chemicals; it is also used in the synthesis of polymers; it is also used in the synthesis of fluorescent dyes and as fluorescent probes for the detection of certain molecules.

Katacine inhibits of oxygen consumption and suppresses the speed of electrons transfer from oxidation substrates via respiratory chain of mitochondria to molecular oxygen.Katacine is a mixture of polymers of A-type proanthocyanidins at various stages of p

Bis(2-ethylhexyl)hexanedioate (NSC 56775) is a diester produced by the formal condensation of the carboxyl group of adipic acid with 2-ethylhexan-1-ol, and is used as a plasticizer in the preparation of various polymers.

Maltooctaose is a low molecular weight carbohydrate obtained by starch hydrolysis. It is composed of a group of linear α(1-4)-linked D-glucose polymers and trace amounts of (1-6)-linked glucose condensed with a degree of polymerization of 8.

Cytochalasin B is a mycotoxin binding to the barbed end of actin filaments. It can disrupt the formation of actin polymers (Kd: 1.4-2.2 nM for F-actin).

Ethyl coumarin-3-carboxylate, a coumarin derivative, serves as a pseudo-template for the synthesis of Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) that specifically recognize aflatoxins.

2-Keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate is an endogenous metabolite found in E. coli and serves as a crucial intermediate in both the Entner-Doudoroff (ED) pathway and the breakdown pathways of gluconates and sugar polymers in human and plant pathogens, produced by the catalytic action of KDPG aldolase.
