Benzilylcholine mustard (N-2-chloroethyl-N-methyl 2-aminoethyl benzilate) is a modified version of acetylcholine so named because after cyclization in solution it forms an iminium derivative that is structurally similar to benzilylcholine. It is well known for being an irreversible inhibitor of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor. It has been used in pharmacological experiments investigating the relationship between receptor occupancy and response.
