I did utfse on a number of compounds as well as using rhodium's search engine, however none produced results. I thought it would be more useful for someone knowledgable to look at the list and see if they could conceive of any use for these chems. I'm surprised I got moderated down as other posts of the same nature were not and actually were responded to with useful suggestions.

Put each one of those chemical names in TSE and Rhodium's SE.
I would not expect to see you back here for several months, with all the reading you will be doing. ;)
-
Yes, some of those are useful items.

Acetic Anhydride is the prime precursor for
morphine to heroin.In fact its the only one.
Swim believes it can bee gotten easy though.
Its the morph thats hard
-
Yea I stumbled over a chem supplier the other day giving acetic anhydride away with shipping costs!!
I would guess that you have to jump through a few hoops and sign a few sheets first.

DL-Alanine can make nitroethane
4-bromo-3-methylphenol - Could easily make DOM
4-bromophenol - Methylate the hydroxyl, then hydroxylate the bromo, p-methoxy phenol--great 2CB percursor
1-bromopropane - Maybe propionic acid. Probably not.
o-anisealdehyde - You can oxidize the aldehyde to a hydroxyl with H2O2+H2SO4, thence to 2CB
4-bromo-N,N-dimethylaniline - Maybe a Grignard to make DMT? Seems far-fetched.
2-bromo-2-methylbutane - Probably not
tert-butyldimethylsilyl - Probably not
benzyl alcohol - You could either halogenate the hydroxyl, to make Benzyl chloride--a meth precursor, or oxidize to make benzaldehyde--another meth precursor
2-benzylpyridine - Maybe useful as a pyridine substitute. Nothing springs to mind
4-bromobenzaldehyde - Probably not.
benzophenone - Dunno
p-cresol - I know this can be used as a mescaline precursor.
crotyl chrloride - dunno
L-cysteine - No
carbon tetrabromide - Dangerous, but probably a useful solvent
3-cyanobenzaldehyde - dunno
4-chlorobenzaldehyde - dunno--note that 4-chloroamphetamine is neurotoxic
4-(dimethylamino)pyridine - again a possible pyridine subst.
1,3-dicyclohexylcarbodrimide - dunno
2,2-dimethoxypropane - Dunno
diethanolamine - You can make morpholine out of this, and then use that as a catalyst in a Willdergodt reaction
diphenylmethane - I doubt it
3,4-dimethoxyphenol - YES!!!!! This is a fantastic TMA-2 precursor. You should be able to formylate using a variety of methods, then methylate, and condense with nitroethane. Reduction yields TMA-2
2,6-dimethoxybenzaldehyde - This should be usable for a number of Shulgin's 2,6 subst. phenethylamines, eg. TMA-6.
ethyl 3-coumarin-carboxylate - Probably not.
flourene - Very dangerous to handle. Probably not that useful anyway.
bromine - Useful for a variety of things.
4-hydroxycinnamic acid - Maybe you could make mescaline out of this.
glutaric anhydride - ???
hydrocinnamaldehyde - ???
4-hydroxybenzldehyde - Definite mescaline or escaline precursor
hydrazine - I understand this is used in LSD production. It is also useful in some reductions.
3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-propanol - Yes. You should be able to dehydrate that propanol chain, then methylenate the ring to yield isosafrole, an MDMA precursor.
N-hydroxysuccinimide - If you could halogenate that hydroxy group with something like PBr3 or PI3, you could make N-halo-succinimide--a useful halogenation reagent.
DL-Lysine - Probably not.
2-methyl-2-propanol - Probably not
methyl-d3-amine HCl - No, unless you want to do radiotagging studies with MDMA or meth.
4-nitrobenzaldehyde - dunno
m-nitroaniline - dunno
1-naphthol - Probably not
4-nitrophenol - dunno
4-nitrobenzyl chloride - dunno, probably not
4-nitrophenyl chloroformate - dunno
3-nitrobenzaldehyde - dunno
o-nitrophenol - dunno
4-nitrobenzyl bromide - dunno
4-nitrobenzaldehyde - dunno
nitromethane - Yes, you can condense this with aldehydes to form nitrostyrenes, which can then be reduced to phenethylamines.
trans-stillbene - dunno
p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate - Useful as a catalyst in a number of things
triphenyl methane - Maybe.
L-tyrosine - It'd be difficult to use.
p-toluoyl chloride - Dunno.
2,4,6-trimethylphenol - Dunno.
iodine - Yes.
LiAH - yes.
Aluminum Chloride - yes
Barium Hydroxide -probably
MgCl - probably, though I think you have a typo in the name.
Mercury(II) acetate - Likely yes
acetic anhydride - Definitely useful for preparing ketones from phenylacetic acids.
I strongly advise you learn something about organic chemistry before trying anything with any of these. Some of the chemicals can be very dangerous.

I can assure you that any reaction would be performed with utmost regard to personal safety (i.e. splash guard goggles, gloves, fume hood w/ safety glass). swim has done some grignard reactions and fiedel-craft acylations which req'd anhydrous conditions and careful attention to detail/safety. would reference any appropriate books before use etc. Thank you very much for your comments on the chems, I had done searches but I felt that someone with more knowledge could read through and pick out things faster than myself.
p.s. swim forgot to look in the fridge/freezer :) about 75 more reagents in there
