Abstract: Anti-virally active carbanucleosides such as entecavir are prepared by a process which utilizes, throughout the synthesis, an aromatic protectant group for the hydroxyl and the alkyl hydroxy groups of the starting material, removed as the final step of a multi-step synthesis. Such protectant groups yield intermediates which are solid and therefore easily purified at various stages of the process, for an economical and relatively fast process for synthesizing the final product.

Methods of using compounds of Formula I for in vitro, in situ, and in vivo diagnosis, prevention or treatment of such disorders in mammalian cells, or associated pathological conditions, are disclosed.

Abstract: Novel paclitaxel trihydrates. The paclitaxel trihydrates described herein are obtained by recrystallizing paclitaxel from a water/alcohol solution. Such recrystallization is known in the art to yield the one previously known paclitaxel crystalline trihydrate polymorph. Formation of the novel paclitaxel trihydrates described herein is induced by subjecting paclitaxel trihydrate crystals to an elevated pressure. As evidenced by NMR spectra, the novel paclitaxel trihydrates described herein have three-dimensional structures and/or water coordination geometry structures that are distinct from any previously known paclitaxel trihydrate.

Abstract: A process for preparing 7-[2-[4-(6-fluoro-3-methyl-1,2-benzisoxazol-5-yl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-2-(1-propynyl)-7H-pyrazolo-[4,3-e]-[1,2,4]-triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidin-5-amine, intermediates useful in that process, and processes for preparing said intermediates are disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of 5-(2-amino-pyrimidin-4-yl)-2-aryl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxamides and to the useful intermediate compounds of such process. The process allows to obtain the desired products in high yields and purity. The synthesis is starting from the coupling of an acetal with a beta-ketoester; the resultant compound is acetylated and then reacted with a dialkyl acetal of N,N-dimethylformamide to give an intermediate which is cyclized to 5-(2-amino-pyrimidin-4-yl)-2-aryl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic ester; the carboxylic ester is then hydrolyzed and the resultant carboxylic acid is finally condensed with an appropriate form of ammonia to give the desired carboxamide. The compounds prepared according to the process of the invention are endowed with protein kinase inhibiting activity and, more particularly, Cdc7 or Cdc7/Cdks inhibiting activity.
