  • (±)-2-(2-phenylpropyl)imidazolidin-4-one
  • (±)-2-(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)imidazolidin-4-one
  • (±)-2-[(R)-2,6-dimethyl-5-heptenyl]imidazolidin-4-one
  • (5R,6S,9R)-6-isopropyl-9-methyl-1,4-diazaspiro[4.5]decan-2-one
  • (5S,6S,9R)-6-isopropyl-9-methyl-1,4-diazaspiro[4.5]decan-2-one
  • (±)-2-methyl-2-pentylimidazolidin-4-one
  • (±)-2-ethyl-2-(2-methylbutyl)imidazolidin-4-one
  • (±)-2-(undecan-2-yl)imidazolidin-4-one
  • (±)-2-pentylimidazolidin-4-one
