Patent number: 6313314Abstract: The present invention provides a novel method for the preparation of N-azidosulfonyl-arylimides, which are known as photo-initiators. At the outset, substitution reaction of 4-acetamidobenzenesulfonyl halide with MN3 (M denotes hydrogen or alkaline metal) provides the corresponding azide. After de-protection to remove the actyl group, aminoarylsulfonyl azide is extracted with organic solvent, and the extract is directly used for addition reaction with maleic anhydride without concentration.

Patent number: 6037477Abstract: An ether is oxidized with oxygen under an oxidation catalyst comprising an imide compound (such as N-hydroxyphthalimide) or the imide compound and a co-catalyst to produce the corresponding chain or cyclic ester or anhydride. The co-catalyst may be a transition metal compound. The above process provides a process for oxidizing an ether by oxygen efficiently to produce the corresponding oxide (such as an ester, an hydride) with high conversion and selectivity.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 1998Date of Patent: March 14, 2000Assignees: Daicel Chemical Industries, Ltd., Yasutaka IshiiInventors: Yasutaka Ishii, Tatsuya Nakano

Patent number: 6002003Abstract: Activating groups for cyanine dyes used to label chain terminators in nucleotide sequencing, based on N-hydroxyphthalimide, are disclosed. From these activating groups, activated dyes of the present Invention are prepared which react with the derivitized nucleotide chain terminators to give a labeled chain terminator of the present Invention. The activating groups of the present Invention allow the dye-chain terminator reaction to occur at a much higher yield and with much greater selectivity for the mono-substituted product, compared with the prior art.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 1998Date of Patent: December 14, 1999Assignee: Beckman Instruments, Inc.Inventors: Gene G.-Y. Shen, Thomas S. Dobashi

Patent number: 5965746Abstract: Provided are methods for the synthesis of N-cyclic maleamic acids and N-cyclic maleimide derivatives, as well as N-cyclic maleamic acids and N-cyclic maleimides synthesized thereby. The method for synthesis of an N-cyclic maleamic acid involves reacting an amino group-containing N-cyclic compound with maleic anhydride in acetic acid to obtain an N-cyclic maleamic acid. An N-cyclic maleimide can be formed by adding hexamethyldisilazane to an N-cyclic maleamic acid prepared according to the above-described method, thereby cyclizing a maleamic acid site of the N-cyclic maleamic acid. The described methods allow for the products to be obtained at high yields.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 1998Date of Patent: October 12, 1999Assignee: Aisin Seiki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Satoshi Fujita, Paidi Yella Reddy, Takeshi Toru

Patent number: RE39744Abstract: In the presence of an imide compound (e.g., N-hydroxyphthalimide) shown by the formula (2): wherein R1 and R2 independently represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkyl group, an aryl group, a cycloalkyl group; or R1 and R2 may bond together to form a double bond or an aromatic or non-aromatic ring; Y is O or OH and n=1 to 3; or the imide compound and a co-catalyst (e.g., a transition metal compound), an adamantane derivative having a functional group such as a nitro group, an amino group, a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, a hydroxymethyl group and an isocyanato group is oxidized with oxygen. According to the above method, an adamantane derivative having a hydroxyl group together with a functional group such as a nitro group, an amino group, a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, a hydroxymethyl group and an isocyanato group is efficiently obtained.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 1998Date of Patent: July 24, 2007Assignee: Daicel Chemical Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Yasutaka Ishii, Tatsuya Nakano, Naruhisa Hirai
