Ortho-chlorobenzylidene is a chemical compound commonly known as CS gas, which is a type of tear gas. It is not the same as pepper spray, which primarily contains capsaicin, the active component in chili peppers. While both are used for self-defense and crowd control, their chemical compositions and mechanisms of action differ significantly.

Is mace and pepper spray the same?
Mace or "tear gas" is a chemical compound. Most US military people are exposed to it during boot camp in a vapor-filled room where they are instructed to remove their gas masks. Some special operations forces are repeatedly exposed so that they can learn to perform normal tasks under its effects. It has less of a burning effect but more of a respiratory and mucous effect. Pepper Spray is concentrated oil and resin from peppers, just like the name says. Its effects are claimed to be more intense and less easy to build up a tolerance to its effects, and has come to be more widely used for personal and policing purposes because of this. It is more of a liquid than a vapor, so it is less useful for weaponization. Pepper spray is extremely painful, moreso than mace. Mace is easy to weaponize and deploy on crowds or enemy troops from artillery shells, mortars, etc. It can form large, lingering clouds. Pepper spray is too heavy and oily for that, but pepper spray "clings" to the human skin and membranes and is harder to rinse off. Police have used combinations of both compounds on crowds in Seattle and at other protests. Potential hazards of doing this have been discussed but there isn't much medical research even though there have been deaths and law suits related to cardiac and respiratory failure after intense dosages have been delivered.
Do police officers have to be tazed and sprayed with mace during training?
Whether officers are exposed to pepper spray (Mace, a form of tear gas, is seldom used anymore) and TASERs during training is determined by each training academy. Most officers do get some exposure, which can vary from walking through a room where pepper spray has been sprayed or being touched with the electrodes of a TASER to being sprayed directly in the face with pepper spray and getting "the full ride" of a TASER.

What is a tearing gas?
There are 3 types of tear gas * CS(chlorobenzylidenemalononitrile) * CN (chloroacetophenone) - often sold as Mace * Pepper spray - made from chili peppers mixed with a vehicle like corn oil CS is stronger than CN but wears off more quickly. Tear gas is often used by law enforcement when they are faced with a combative crowd. Both CN and CS are irritants -- they irritate mucous membranes in the eyes, nose, mouth and lungs and cause tearing, sneezing, coughing, etc. Pepper spray is an inflammatory agent that causes inflammation in the eyes, nose and mouth. Its effect is more debilitating, but you have to hit someone with it directly for it to be effective. This makes it more useful for self-defense against an individual. It is also useful against attacking dogs and bears.
Who invented pepper spray?
The use of pepper as a weapon goes all the way back to ancient China. The Chinese would put red chili pepper on rice paper as a weapon and swing it to the face of their opponents. The Japanese ninja were also known to use ground pepper against their enemies. During the Tukagawa Empire in Japan, the police would use a box called; metsubishi, which was filled with pepper and blown into a prisoner's eyes as a way of torture. Tear gas was invented in Germany in the 1800's and it is included in some Mace brand pepper sprays today. The US introduced pepper spray through the US Postal Service in the 1980's as a dog repellent. Our government also used it for protection against bears and other animals. The FBI endorsed it as an "official chemical agent" in 1987 and by 1991, there were over 3,000 law enforcement agencies that utilized it. As you can tell, even though pepper spray is a simple product, it really does a great job in deterring violent individuals or animals!
Can you think of the spray that makes them dizzy and can kill you?
The spray you might be referring to is likely a form of aerosolized toxin, such as those used in chemical warfare, like nerve agents. These substances can cause severe neurological effects, including dizziness and loss of consciousness, and can be lethal in sufficient doses. Another possibility could be certain types of crowd control sprays, like pepper spray or tear gas, which can cause temporary disorientation but are generally non-lethal. However, improper use or exposure to concentrated forms can still be dangerous.
