Acetyl phosphate is a compound involved in taurine and hypotaurine metabolism as well as pyruvate metabolism. It is generated from sulfoacetaldehyde converted to acetyl-CoA and acetate via phosphate acetyltransferase and acetate kinase respectively. It is also an intermediate in pyruvate metabolism.

Betahistine is a histamine analog and H1 receptor agonist that serves as a vasodilator.

N-Acetylcadaverine is the acetylated form of the polyamine cadaverine. Cadaverine is produced by the breakdown of amino acids in living and dead organisms and is toxic in large doses. N-(5-Aminopentyl)acetamide is a promising biochemical marker for cancer and many other pathophysiological conditions.
