Abstract: A portable prayer altar including an enclosure having an open rear wall facing the user. A padded kneeling mechanism is pivotally attached to the interior bottom wall and is movable between a lowered position for use, and a raised position for storage. A rotary air driven motor, in communication with an air compressor and air storage tank, is operably attached to the kneeling mechanism. An activation switch coupled to the motor is carried on the side wall of the enclosure and is readily accessible to the user.

Abstract: Compounds are described of the general formula: ##STR1## wherein: R.sub.1 is acyl of the formula --C(=O)-R.sub.5 : R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.6, R.sub.7 and R.sub.8 are each selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and acyl of the formula:--C(=O)-R.sub.5wherein R.sub.5 is selected from the group consisting of alkyls, substituted alkyls, alkenyls, substituted alkenyls, cycloalkyls, substituted cycloalkyls, arylalkylenes, substituted arylalkylenes, alkylenecycloalkyls, alkylene substituted cycloalkyls, alkynyls, substituted alkynyls, aryls and substituted aryls, wherein R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are selected such that at least one of R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is an acyl.When R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 include one or more acyls that are not identical to the acyl of R.sub.1, these compounds of formula I are novel compounds. The invention also includes processes to produce the compounds of formula I.
