Abstract: Oxidation dye compositions particularly useful for dyeing human hair containing as the meta component compounds of the formula: ##STR1## or their non-toxic salts, wherein R is alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, phenylalkyl, phenylsulfonyls, alkylsulfonyls or cyanoalkyl.

Abstract: N-mono(alkoxymethyl)phenobarbitals wherein the alkoxy group has 1 to 4 carbon atoms are disclosed. The compounds are prepared by reacting the dialkali metal salt of thiophenobarbital with chloromethyl alkyl ether followed by treating the resultant N,S-bis(alkoxymethyl)thiophenobarbital with an oxidizing agent. The compounds are useful as anti-convulsant agents.

Abstract: Hair fixation with fluorine containing acrylate or methacrylate terpolymers or with mixtures thereof with known non-fluorine containing hair fixing polymers.

Abstract: N-mono (alkoxymethyl)phenobarbitals wherein the alkoxy group has 1 to 4 carbon atoms are disclosed.

Abstract: An autoxidizable hair preparation capable of coloring hair when applied thereto and exposed to the atmosphere comprising N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine or an acid addition salt thereof and a triol selected from the group consisting of 1,2,4-benzenetriol and 2,4,5-trihydroxytoluene. The preparation is applied at multiple spaced intervals of time until the desired color build-up is attained. Also prepares the composition by preforming a solution of the triol by storing the corresponding triacetate in acid solution for a period of time then adding the N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine.

Abstract: Various derivatives of barbituric acid and of diphenylhydantoin are described in which alkoxymethyl or benzyloxymethyl groups are attached to the nitrogen atoms of the rings. Therapeutic compositions containing these compounds and their use as anticonvulsant agents are described.

Abstract: There is disclosed an improved process for the preparation of 1,3-bis(alkoxyalkyl)- and 1,3-bis(benzyloxyalkyl)-5,5-disubstituted barbituric acid derivatives, such as 1,3-bis(methoxymethyl)phenobarbital, by reacting e.g., phenobarbital, preferably, a multiple molar excess of dimethoxymethane and an at least equimolar amount of anhydrous stannic chloride based on the amount of phenobarbital.

Abstract: A ball type roll-on liquid dispenser provided with a generally spherical ball and relatively small supporting nibs supporting the ball for rotation. A restricted passageway is provided between the ball and neck of the container to meter the liquid contents of the container. A thin retaining ring for retaining the ball is also provided as well as a closure liner adapted to apply variable pressure to the thin retaining ring to control the flow of liquid from the container and to completely seal the container from the atmosphere.
