ethylene dichloride [Supplementary Concept]
RN given refers to 1,2-isomer; structure given in first source
Date introduced: June 5, 1980
Succinylcholine
A quaternary skeletal muscle relaxant usually used in the form of its bromide, chloride, or iodide. It is a depolarizing relaxant, acting in about 30 seconds and with a duration of effect averaging three to five minutes. Succinylcholine is used in surgical, anesthetic, and other procedures in which a brief period of muscle relaxation is called for.
Alcuronium
A non-depolarizing skeletal muscle relaxant similar to TUBOCURARINE. It is used as an anesthesia adjuvant.
Year introduced: 1991(1975)

from Chinese herb Cyclea hainanensis Mrr
Date introduced: January 6, 1982
Hexamethonium
A nicotinic cholinergic antagonist often referred to as the prototypical ganglionic blocker. It is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and does not cross the blood-brain barrier. It has been used for a variety of therapeutic purposes including hypertension but, like the other ganglionic blockers, it has been replaced by more specific drugs for most purposes, although it is widely used a research tool.
Year introduced: 1995
aflatoxin B1-8,9-dichloride [Supplementary Concept]
used as a model for aflatoxin B1 epoxide; reacts at the N7 position of guanine to form bulky adducts that lie in the major groove of DNA
Date introduced: June 11, 1992

Year introduced: 1997
Methylene Chloride
A chlorinated hydrocarbon that has been used as an inhalation anesthetic and acts as a narcotic in high concentrations. Its primary use is as a solvent in manufacturing and food technology.
Mercuric Chloride
Mercury chloride (HgCl2). A highly toxic compound that volatizes slightly at ordinary temperature and appreciably at 100 degrees C. It is corrosive to mucous membranes and used as a topical antiseptic and disinfectant.
Year introduced: 1985
Dequalinium
A topical bacteriostat that is available as various salts. It is used in wound dressings and mouth infections and may also have antifungal action, but may cause skin ulceration.
Year introduced: 1991(1976)
Chlorisondamine
A nicotinic antagonist used primarily as a ganglionic blocker in animal research. It has been used as an antihypertensive agent but has been supplanted by more specific drugs in most clinical applications.
