  • Publication number: 20090112005
    Abstract: The present invention provides a process for preparing amides, by reacting a primary amine and a primary alcohol in the presence of a Ruthenium catalyst, to generate the amide and molecular hydrogen. According to the process of the invention, primary amines are directly acylated by equimolar amounts of alcohols to produce amides and molecular hydrogen (the only byproduct) in high yields and high turnover numbers. This reaction is catalyzed by a Ruthenium complex, which is preferably based on a dearomatized PNN-type ligand of formula A1 or precursors thereof of formulae A2 or A3. Use of diamines in the reaction leads to bis-amides, whereas with a mixed primary/secondary amine substrate, chemoselective acylation of the primary amine group occurs.

  • Patent number: 7235690
    Abstract: The present invention is related to anthranilamides of formula I, in which R(1) to R(7) have the meanings indicated herein, a process for their preparation, their use as medicaments, and pharmaceutical preparations containing them. The compounds act on the Kv1.5 potassium channel and inhibit a potassium current which is referred to as the ultra-rapidly activating delayed rectifier in the atrium of the human heart. The compounds are therefore suitable for use as novel antiarrhythmic agents for the treatment and prophylaxis of atrial arrhythmias (e.g., atrial fibrillation (AF) or atrial flutter).
