Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) is a phospholipid (and a lecithin) consisting of two C16 palmitic acid groups attached to a phosphatidylcholine head-group. It is the main constituent of pulmonary surfactants, which reduces the work of breathing and prevents alveolar collapse during breathing. It also plays an important role in the study of liposomes and human bilayers. (Wikipedia).
Make p-Chlorophenyl Acetonitrile - Step 4 in Pyrimethamine Synthesis
In this video we make p-chlorophenyl acetonitrile from the p-chlorobenzyl chloride and the sodium cyanide in a previous video. ( Complete pyrimethamine playlist so far: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLU79801KtVAU1XsTwHaKkqQoBgz_VYmPS ) Fortunately this is a very mild process and
From playlist Pyrimethamine
Hexamine is a solid fuel with a high energy density, and we make a salt with it using perchloric acid, a very good pyrotechnic oxidiser. I also try to be funny at the end. At the time, I remember it being actually funny to me, but now it's really quite hard to watch. Oh well, progress I g

Acetaminophen/Paracetamol (Tylenol)
Acetaminophen, more commonly known by brand names such as Tylenol, is not a true NSAID, as it does not have anti-inflammatory properties. However, it is commonly discussed alongside NSAIDs as it has similar antipyretic and analgesic properties. Although its mechanism of action is not well-

Aspirin to Acetaminophen - Part 6 of 6: Acetaminophen from p-aminophenol
This is the final part of the series, where the p-aminophenol is converted to the acetaminophen. Using acetic anhydride, the p-aminophenol is going to be acetylated. The reaction is carried out in water at room temperature. Acetic anhydride does react with water, but it happens slowly.
