Compounds (9)

CompoundDescription
hydronium ion
ubiquinol 1
nitratesInorganic or organic salts and esters of nitric acid. These compounds contain the NO3- radical.
nitritesSalts of nitrous acid or compounds containing the group NO2-. The inorganic nitrites of the type MNO2 (where M=metal) are all insoluble, except the alkali nitrites. The organic nitrites may be isomeric, but not identical with the corresponding nitro compounds. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)
WaterA clear, odorless, tasteless liquid that is essential for most animal and plant life and is an excellent solvent for many substances. The chemical formula is hydrogen oxide (H2O). (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed)
ubiquinone q1interacts with iron atom to form acceptor quinone complex
alpha-glycerophosphoric acid
ticrynafenA novel diuretic with uricosuric action. It has been proposed as an antihypertensive agent.
Flavin-Adenine DinucleotideA condensation product of riboflavin and adenosine diphosphate. The coenzyme of various aerobic dehydrogenases, e.g., D-amino acid oxidase and L-amino acid oxidase. (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p972)
