Carbaryl (1-naphthyl methylcarbamate) is a chemical in the carbamate family used chiefly as an insecticide. It is a white crystalline solid commonly sold under the brand name Sevin, a trademark of the Bayer Company. Union Carbide discovered carbaryl and introduced it commercially in 1958. Bayer purchased Aventis CropScience in 2002, a company that included Union Carbide pesticide operations. It remains the third-most-used insecticide in the United States for home gardens, commercial agriculture, and forestry and rangeland protection. About 11 million kilograms were applied to U.S. farm crops in 1976. As a veterinary drug, it is known as carbaril (INN).
Carbaryl is produced by treating methyl isocyanate (3) with 1-naphthol (4).
Alternatively, 1-naphthol (1) is first converted to its chloroformate (3), which is then treated with methylamine to give the desired product (4):
The former process was carried out in Bhopal. In comparison, the latter synthesis uses exactly the same reagents, but in a different sequence. This synthesis avoids the preparation of methyl isocyanate, and the comparison is often used as a case study in green chemistry. However, the second synthesis still uses phosgene, which is toxic and reacts with water, and methylamine, which is a toxic and flammable gas.
Sevendust is the self-titled debut album by the American rock band Sevendust. The Japan reissue has live versions of "Bitch" and "Prayer" as ending bonus tracks. Sevendust appeared on the Billboard 200, remained there for sixteen weeks and peaked at 165 on April 4, 1998. The album went gold on May 19, 1999, and had by January 2011 sold 732,000 copies in the U.S. The album was re-mastered and re-released on June 21, 2010 entitled "The Definitive Edition", featuring two b-sides and two live tracks.

Feeling days with empty space
Wasting my time I've shown I've grown
The lies have caught up there's nothing left
To show
Where did we go wrong?
I never had a chance to know you
Where did we go?
I never had a chance at al
L to know you
Staring in the face of a broken dream
(stand em up stand em up)
Knocking down all my shame
To save my name
I'm tired of seeing and sick of being on a living lie
(knocking down knocking down)
All the shots at my dream so I can breathe
Ask forgiveness but don't say please
Taste the shame that I've always known
Drown yourself in your own obscurity
Where did we go wrong?
I never had a chance to know you
Where did we go?
I never had a chance at all
To know you
Staring in the face of a broken dream
(stand em up stand em up)
Knocking down all my shame to save my name
I'm tired of seeing and sick of being on a living lie
(knocking down knocking down)
All the shots at my dream so I can breathe
Wait a sec I thought you said you had me pegged
Instead your left reeling from the smack
I swore I'd give to you if I could have
Just one fucking chance I'd convince you why
Staring in the face of a broken dream
(stand em up stand em up)
Knocking down all my shame to save my name
I'm tired of seeing and sick of being on a living lie
(knocking down knocking down)
All the shots at my dream so I can breathe
Staring in the face of a broken dream
Knocking down all my shame to save my name
I'm tired of seeing and sick of being on a living lie
Knocking down all the shots at my dream
