  • Compact disc repair kit and method
    Patent number: 5493764
    Abstract: A kit and method of using the same to allow the repair of a compact disc case after one or both of the "ears" that form the hinges breaks off is disclosed. The kit involves a piece of flexible adhesive backed material that can be placed on the case after both the protrusions are snapped off to form a new hinge. Thus the case can still be used, albeit with a new hinge line, the snapping off of both the protrusions allowing for the members that carry them to pass over the sides of the bottom portion of the case.

  • Process for the preparation of optionally substituted 2,3-indolinediones
    Patent number: 4261894
    Abstract: An improved process for the preparation of optionally substituted 2,3-indolinediones which are useful as intermediates in the preparation of compounds having pharmacological activity which comprises reacting a 3,1-benzoxazine with an alkali or alkaline earth metal cyanide or a tetra-(C.sub.1-4) alkylammonium cyanide to obtain a 2-imino-3-indolinone, which is then subjected to hydrolysis.
