Ethinamate
Ethinamate (Valamin, Valmid) is a short-acting carbamate-derivative sedative-hypnotic medication used to treat insomnia. Regular use leads to drug tolerance, and it is usually not effective for more than 7 days. Prolonged use can lead to dependency.

Ethinamate has been replaced by other medicines (particularly benzodiazepines), and it is not available in the Netherlands, the United States or Canada.
Synthesis
Ethinamate (1-ethynylcyclohexanone carbamate) is synthesized by combining acetylene with cyclohexanone and then transforming the resulting product into a carbamate by the subsequent reaction with phosgene, and later with ammonia. Some lithium metal or similar is used to make the acetylene react with the cyclohexanone in the first step.[1][2]
gollark: Also, "old Android" connectors are micro USB and "new Android" is USB-C, if it helps with getting connectors or whatever at all.
gollark: All USB host things are (meant to be) 5V, but there are optional standards for negotiating higher power.
gollark: <@617750798960558091> I suppose you probably found out by now, but USB is 5V by default with a gazillion power delivery standards.
gollark: Hmm, I could try using other invisible characters.
gollark: But good to know?
