Abstract: Methods for preparation of olefins, including 8- and 11-unsaturated monoenes and polyenes, via transition metathesis-based synthetic routes are described. Metathesis reactions in the methods are catalyzed by transition metal catalysts including tungsten-, molybdenum-, and ruthenium-based catalysts. The olefins include insect pheromones useful in a number of agricultural applications.

Abstract: Polyethylene glycol substituted acyl borates, methods for their preparation, and the use of the polyethylene glycol substituted acyl borates for the preparation of polyethylene glycol substituted macromolecules. The polyethylene glycol substituted acyl borate has the general formula (I) wherein PEG denotes a polyethylene glycol-based substituent; a is an integer from 1 to 12; X1, X2, and X3 are independently of one another selected from the group made of F, OR, N+R3, N+R2OR, N+R2SR, and N+R2NR2, and are optionally forming a cyclic or a bicyclic structure; and R is an organic substituent or H.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of pharmaceutical compositions containing as the active agent a compound of formula I in the treatment of dermal wounds. The compositions may be used for the promotion of healing of wounds affecting the deeper layers under the epithelium, including dermal- and sub dermal connective tissue, being cut, punctured, sliced wounds or originating in insufficient tissue perfusion, chronic diseases or other harms. The compositions are formulated for local application and may comprise other active agents contributing to wound healing in addition to a compound of formula (I).
