  • Patent number: 5362871
    Abstract: A process for the direct and regioselective functionalization of phenothiazine which allows one to introduce an SH group in position 2, said process comprising the sulfination or sulfonation of the phenothiazine N-protected with an alkoxycarbonyl, an alkylsulfonyl or an arylsulfonyl group, the reduction of the produce obtained to give the N-protected 2-mercapto-phenothiazine, and the deprotection of the nitrogen atom. The thus-obtained 2-mercapto-phenothiazine is an important intermediate for the preparation of pharmacological active compounds.

  • Patent number: 5258138
    Abstract: A process for stabilizing an ethylenically unsaturated monomer or oligomer from premature polymerization is disclosed whereby a stabilizing amount of an amine, preferably a substituted hindered amine, in combination with phenothiazine or other related heterocyclic moiety is added to said polymerizable monomer or oligomer. The ethylenically unsaturated monomer or oligomer encompass vinyl monomers or oligomers bearing at least one polymerizable moiety. The combination of substituted hindered amine plus phenothiazine inhibits premature polymerization in the liquid and/or vapor phase.
