Abstract: Hydrocarbyl bisphosphate compounds containing hindered aryl substituents in the phosphate groups can be formed by: (a) reacting a hindered phenol, e.g., xylenol, with a phosphorus oxytrihalide, e.g., phosphorus oxytrichloride, to form a reaction product mixture; and (b) combining the reaction product, without distillation of the product from the reaction product mixture, from (a) mixture with a hydrocarbyl diol, e.g., one containing a phenyl ring such as hydroquinone or resorcinol.

Abstract: A class of 4-hydroxy-2(1H)-pyrrolone derivatives, substituted at the 3-position by an optionally substituted aryl substituent, are selective non-competitive antagonists of NMDA receptors and/or are antagonists of AMPA receptors, and are therefore of utility in the treatment of conditions, such as neurodegenerative disorders, convulsions or schizophrenia, which require the administration of an NMDA and/or AMPA receptor antagonist.

Abstract: Phsophonate esters can be synthesized in high yields by condensations of alcohols with methyl phosphonates followed by selective demethylation. The reaction is general, relativly insensitive to steric constraints of hindered phosphonic acids, and can also be carried out on a solid support to synthesize large collections of compounds to screen for pharmacological activity.
