Girard's Reagent T (Trimethylacetohydrazideammonium Chloride) is a biochemical reagent. Girard's Reagent T under mild acid or alkaline conditions, reacts with aldehydes and ketones containing α-dicarbonyl functional groups to produce addition compounds which strongly absorb ultraviolet light.

TGFβ1-IN-2, a derivative of diarylacylhydrazones, effectively inhibits fibroblast activation and proliferation and holds potential for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) research .

β-Amyrenonol (11-Oxo-β-amyrin), an oleanolic-type triterpenoid in licorice roots, is a precursor of Glycyrrhetinic acid. β-Amyrenonol has anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory activities, and β-Amyrenonol could function as the skeleton for the synthesis of many triterpenoids.
