Abstract: The invention relates to compounds of formula (I) processes for their preparation, their use as 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors and pharmaceutical compositions containing the same.

Abstract: Processes and compositions are provided for regulating COX2 gene expression in a cell. The process includes selecting a polyamide composition comprising N-methyl pyrrole (Py) and N-methyl imidazole (Im) to provide specific binding to DNA at a COX2 gene target site in a cell. The polyamide is then combined with the cell containing the COX2 gene, wherein the polyamide binds to the COX2 gene promoter target site and regulates transcription of the COX2 gene.

Abstract: Herbicidal compositions of glyphosate, its salts, diquat, or paraquat in combination with a compound of the following formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, and n are as defined. Preferred are combinations of glyphosate, its salts, diquat, or paraquat with 2-chloro-5-(4-bromo-1-methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-4-fluoro benzoic acid, 1-methylethyl ester.

Abstract: The disclosure herein relates to a process for the preparation of compounds according to Formula N ##STR1## which comprises using a compound of Formula M ##STR2## as starting material for alkylation to said compounds of Formula N in an inert solvent at temperatures within the range of 0.degree.-200.degree. C. whereinR.sub.1 is C.sub.1-5 alkyl;R.sub.2 is C.sub.1-5 haloalkyl;R.sub.3 is halogen;R.sub.5 is hydrogen or halogen;q is 0-2;R.sub.28 and R.sub.30 are independently an alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl radical having up to 5 carbon atoms or said radicals substituted with a ##STR3## radical; X is O, S(O).sub.m, NR.sub.19 or CR.sub.20 R.sub.21 ;Y is O, S(O).sub.m or NR.sub.22 ;m is 0-2 andR.sub.13 and R.sub.19 -R.sub.22 are hydrogen or an R.sub.28 member.The above compounds are useful as herbicides.

Abstract: The invention herein relates to certain substituted-arylpyrazole compounds, herbicidal compositions containing same, herbicidal methods of use and processes for preparing said compounds.

Abstract: The invention herein relates to certain substituted-arylpyrazole compounds, herbicidal compositions containing same, herbicidal methods of use and processes for preparing said compounds.

Abstract: The invention herein relates to titled compounds having the structure ##STR1## wherein the R.sub.1 -(R.sub.4).sub.n members are as defined in the claims. Characteristic features of these compounds are the haloalkyl R.sub.2 radical and cyclization of two R.sub.4 members at the meta and para positions of the phenyl ring to form a substituted benzoxazinone ring fused to the phenyl or benzthiazinone ring. Such compounds are useful as active ingredients in herbicidal compositions to control undesirable weeds in various crops.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for preparing 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropene comprising allylic rearrangement of 2,3,3,3-tetrachloropropene using a substantially anhydrous ferric chloride catalyst. Alternatively, 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropene is prepared by dehydrochlorination of 1,1,1,2,3-pentachloropropane using a ferric chloride catalyst. Process schemes commencing with the preparation of the precursor 1,1,1,3-tetrachloropropane by reaction of ethylene with carbon tetrachloride are also disclosed.
