Abstract: A compound of compound according to formula (I): wherein X is selected from the group consisting of CH, CCl and N, Z is selected from the group consisting of CH2COOH, CH(CH3)COOH, C(CH3)2COOH and CH2F, D is a single bond connecting A and Ar or selected from the group consisting of CO, NHCO and N(C0-6)alkyl-CO, A is selected from the group consisting of a (C1-6)alkanediyl and a (C3-6)cycloalkanediyl or, if D is N(C0)alkyl-CO, A forms a 4- to 7-membered aliphatic heterocyclic ring with the nitrogen atom of N(C0)alkyl-CO in D, and Ar is a 6-membered aromatic ring with a first hydroxyl group in para-position to D, a second hydroxyl group in meta-position to D, and with at least one electron-withdrawing element and uses thereof.

Abstract: A compound selected from 14-O-[((Alkyl-, cycloalkyl-, heterocycloalkyl-, heteoroaryl-, or aryl)-sulfanyl)-acetyl]-12-epi-mutilins, or 14-O-[((Alkyl-, cycloalkyl-, heterocycloalkyl-, heteoroaryl-, or aryl)-oxy)-acetyl]-12-epi-mutilins, wherein 12-epi-mutilin is characterized in that the mutilin ring at position 12 is substituted by two substituents, the first substituent at position 12 of the mutilin ring is a methyl group which methyl group has the inverse stereochemistry compared with the stereochemistry of the methyl group at position 12 of the naturally occurring pleuromutilin ring, the second substituent at position 12 of the mutilin ring is a hydrocarbon group comprising at least one nitrogen atom and all other substituents of the mutilin ring having the same stereochemistry compared with the stereochemistry of the substituents at the corresponding positions in the naturally occurring pleuromutilin ring; optionally in the form of a salt and/or solvate, wherein the naturally occurring pleuromutilin is of

Abstract: The invention relates to homogemcitabines of general formula (2), with the meanings for the substituents as given in claim 1, method for production thereof, use for the production of the active agent gemcitabin and the use thereof for the production of medicaments for the treatment of proliferative diseases. The invention further relates to novel intermediates, as used in the inventive method.

Abstract: The subject of the invention is a process for the production of the racemic active ingredient nebivolol, in which diastereomeric cyanohydrins are produced, separated, and the separated diastereomers are coupled to one another after a transformation, preferably a partial or complete reduction of the cyano group or a Pinner saponification.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel pyrazine compounds and their use in the regulation of haematopoiesis, in particular in the stimulation of haematopoiesis, and in the treatment of bacterial, viral and fungal diseases.

Abstract: The present invention relates to pyrazine fused to a cyclic peptide which is capable of regulating, in particular stimulating, haematopoiesis.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of flue gas abatement for a combustion process, particularly for a refuse incinerating unit, in the case of which ammonia in a gaseous form or dissolved in water is fed into the combustion process or hot flue gases therefrom and furthermore preferably acidic components are removed by scrubbing from the flue gases and are neutralized by a basic material, to which milk of lime has been added, and furthermore the flue gases may be passed in addition though adsorbing materials and if necessary basic materials are supplied to the process so that nitrogen oxides, hydrogen chloride in gas form, dioxines and furans are removed. The material necessary for this are taken from a local sewage plant where they at least proportionately form partial streams in a sludge treatment unit and otherwise would have to be dispensed with.
