Disclosed is a compound, a preparation method and use thereof. The compound of the application is prepared by extracting and separating from Limax, and has significant effects on physiological or psychological dependent detoxification or detoxication. Pharmacological tests have proved that the compound has a significant inhibitory effect on withdrawal jumping symptoms in morphine-dependent animals 1 hour after intragastric administration, and still shows an inhibitory trend after 3 hours. The compound has potential application value in the preparation of medicines, health food, and food for detoxification, detoxication, or similar drug-dependent treatment.

A resist composition containing: (A) a resin containing a repeating unit having an acid-labile group; (B) a photo-acid generator shown by a general formula (B-1); and (C) a solvent, where W.sub.1 represents a cyclic divalent hydrocarbon group having 4 to 12 carbon atoms and containing a heteroatom; W.sub.2 represents a cyclic monovalent hydrocarbon group having 4 to 14 carbon atoms and not containing a heteroatom; Rf represents a divalent organic group shown by the following general formula; and M.sup.+ represents an onium cation. This provides a resist composition and a patterning process that uses the resist composition that show a particularly favorable mask dimension dependency (mask error factor: MEF), LWR, and critical dimension uniformity (CDU) particularly in photolithography where a high-energy beam such as an ArF excimer laser beam is used as a light source.
