  • Patent number: 5009588
    Abstract: Time-delay circuit for automatic shutdown of furnace systems has an induced draft blower motor and a first circuit for providing energy to the blower motor from an energy source. A second circuit for energizing the primary control system of the furnace, includes a thermostat and an electronic switching means. When the thermostat is "closed", the second circuit is completed to energize the electronic switching element which starts the blower. An airflow switch is provided to sense the start of the blower and to thereby energize a primary control which provides gas to a burner of the furnace. A timer set to a predetermined time interval has an output and two input terminal connections, one connected to the output of the thermostat and another to the output of the primary control system. When the thermostat is "closed" and the burner is operating, the timer is disabled.

  • Patent number: 5008399
    Abstract: An increase in the disastereoselectivity resulting from the reaction of a phosphinic acid ester of the formula ##STR1## with the halo ester of the formula ##STR2## is achieved by carrying out the reaction in the presence of 4-methylmorpholine, diazabicyclooctane, quinuclidine, 1-methylpyrolidine, or cinchonidine. After removal of the R.sub.3 protecting group and fractional crystallization, the resulting desired diastereomeric pair can be resolved, and the desired isomer can be coupled to 4-substituted L-proline to give compounds possessing angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition activity. In particular, the process is useful in producing the antihypertensive agent fosinopril sodium in increased yields.
