Abstract: The invention is based on the discovery that certain polyester compounds bearing free-radical curable moieties are useful as b-stageable adhesives for the microelectonic packaging industry.
Abstract: The invention is based on the discovery that a remarkable improvement in the performance of maleimide thermosets can be achieved through the incorporation of imide-extended mono-, bis-, or polymaleimide compounds. These imide-extended maleimide compounds are readily prepared by the condensation of appropriate anhydrides with appropriate diamines to give amine terminated compounds. These compounds are then condensed with excess maleic anhydride to yield imide-extended maleimide compounds.
Abstract: The invention is based on the discovery that a remarkable improvement in the performance of bismaleimide thermosets can be achieved through the incorporation of an imide-extended liquid bismaleimide monomer. This imide-extended liquid bismaleimide monomer is readily prepared by the condensation of an appropriate dianhydride with two equivalents of an appropriate diamine to give an amine terminated compound. This compound is then condensed with an excess of maleic anhydride to yield an imide-extended liquid bismaleimide monomer.
Abstract: The present invention features biarsenical molecules. Target sequences that specifically react with the biarsenical molecules are also included. The present invention also features kits that include biarsenical molecules and target sequences. Tetraarsenical molecules are also featured in the invention.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there are provided modified forms of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Modified NSAIDs according to the invention provide a new class of anti-inflammatory agent which provide the therapeutic benefits of NSAIDs while causing a much lower incidence of side-effects then typically observed with such agents.
Abstract: In accordance with the present invention there are provided cycloaliphatic epoxy compounds and thermosetting resin compositions prepared therefrom. Inventive compounds are based on polycyclic hydrocarbon backbones, as illustrated by the following exemplary structure:
wherein:
each R is independently lower alkyl or halogen,
n′″ is 1 up to about 8, and
each x is independently 0, 1, or 2.
Inventive compounds provide resins with desirable characteristics such as, for example, hydrophobicity, high Tg values, ionic purity, hydrolytic stability, and the like.
Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a class of compounds which are capable of modulating processes mediated by peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-&ggr;). The identification of such compounds makes it possible to intervene in PPAR-&ggr; mediated pathways.
