This is a notable topic but a useless article whose only nontrivial content is copied from a web resource. It should be deleted per WP:TNT. Sammy1339 (talk) 14:12, 4 November 2014 (UTC) Also note that the creator is blocked as a sock. This may qualify for G5 deletion. --Sammy1339 (talk) 14:15, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Weak delete. Google finds enough sources to establish notability, but I agree to WP:TNT, given that the structure diagrams in this article are wrong (they don't match the cited sources -- "Nexeridine" refers to the acetate of the hexanol). -- 120.23.36.138 (talk) 13:16, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I can find three different chemical structures identified as nexeridine. The Organic Chemistry of Drug Synthesis (link) matches the structure given in the drugbox. Dictionary of Pharmacological Agents (link) and Medicinal Chemistry (link) show the acetate ester. ChemIDplus shows the reverse ester.  Despite these textbook and database listings, I'm not sure this is a notable chemical compound though.  PubMed shows no results for nexeridine.  A complete lack of medical literature, unless studies of this compound have been published using a synonym, suggests that there was never any serious research on this drug.  -- Ed (Edgar181) 13:39, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete, since the content isn't accurate as Project Osprey notes below, there are problems with verifiability, and there are notability issues as well. -- Ed (Edgar181) 13:17, 6 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete. CAS No also resolves to the acetate ester (via Scifinder), the structure shown comes out as 58026-32-7. There is very little literature on either compound. The failure rate of drugs entering clinical trials is ~90% so there are a huge number of failed compounds such as this. Being a failed drug candidate is therefore not noteworthy. --Project Osprey (talk) 16:41, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - should have been a speedy delete since this article was created by a sock of banned user, Sockpuppet_investigations/Nuklear.  The compound itself fails WP:NOTABILITY. Jytdog (talk) 15:04, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
