  • Publication number: 20070264623
    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to nanoscale wires for use in determining analytes suspected to be present in a sample, especially in connection with determining information about a sample containing, or suspected of containing, two or more analytes. For example, the invention can involve a competitive, uncompetitive, or non-competitive binding assay including a nanoscale wire to a sample containing a species able to interact with the retain entity to produce a product, where the sample also contains or is suspected of containing a second species able to interact with the reaction entity to prevent production of the product resulting from interaction of the first species and the reaction entity. Based upon determination of production of the product, determination of the second species in the sample can be made.

  • Publication number: 20010024798
    Abstract: The present invention provides biomimetic compounds and libraries thereof, as well as methods for their production. In general, the inventive method involves the selection of a desired biological synthetic pathway and mimics that synthetic pathway utilizing modern synthetic tools. The structures formed from this method are preferably generated in fewer than four steps. These scaffold structures can then be functionalized to yield biomimetic compounds and libraries of compounds. In preferred embodiments, biomimetic compounds and libraries are generated from an oxidative phenolic coupling reaction. In other particularly preferred embodiments, the compounds and libraries of compounds are generated from cascade reactions to yield bicyclo [n.3.1] ring systems, medium ring systems, and fused ring systems.

  • Patent number: 5436363
    Abstract: A depolymerization and purification process, by which a poly(alkyl-.alpha.-cyanoacrylate) feed is depolymerized into high-purity cyanoacrylate monomers without the use of a high-boiling heat transfer medium such as tricresyl phosphate. The poly(alkyl-.alpha.-cyanoacrylate) feed, which contains one or more polymerization inhibitors such as hydroquinone and phosphorus pentoxide, is first introduced into a thin-film evaporator for a depolymerization reaction. The temperature of the film evaporator is maintained at about 200.degree..about.260.degree. C., and operated under a vacuum of 1.about.20 mm Hg. The produced gas stream from the depolymerization reactor is subject to a two-stage heat transfer process for condensation and purification. The first stage involves a very-high temperature condenser (about 150.degree. C.). The residue collected in the first stage condenser contains primarily dimers of .alpha.-cyanoacrylate.
