Patent number: 6756195Abstract: The present invention relates, inter alia, to methodologies for the synthesis, screening and characterization of organometallic compounds and catalysts (e.g., homogeneous catalysts). The methods of the present invention provide for the combinatorial synthesis, screening and characterization of libraries of supported and unsupported organometallic compounds and catalysts (e.g., homogeneous catalysts). The methods of the present invention can be applied to the preparation and screening of large numbers of organometallic compounds which can be used not only as catalysts (e.g., homogeneous catalysts), but also as additives and therapeutic agents.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 1999Date of Patent: June 29, 2004Assignee: Symyx Technologies, Inc.Inventors: W. Henry Weinberg, Eric McFarland, Isy Goldwasser, Thomas Boussie, Howard Turner, Johannes A. M. Van Beek, Vince Murphy, Timothy Powers

Patent number: 6686205Abstract: Methods and apparatus for the preparation and use of a substrate having an array of diverse materials in predefined regions thereon. A substrate having an array of diverse materials thereon is generally prepared by delivering components of materials to predefined regions on a substrate, and simultaneously reacting the components to form at least two materials. Materials which can be prepared using the methods and apparatus of the present invention include, for example, covalent network solids, ionic solids and molecular solids. More particularly, materials which can be prepared using the methods and apparatus of the present invention include, for example, inorganic materials, intermetallic materials, metal alloys, ceramic materials, organic materials, organometallic materials, non-biological organic polymers, composite materials (e.g., inorganic composites, organic composites, or combinations thereof), etc.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2000Date of Patent: February 3, 2004Assignees: Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Symyx Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Peter G.

Patent number: 6045671Abstract: Methods and apparatus for the preparation of a substrate having an array of diverse materials in predefined regions thereon. A substrate having an array of diverse materials thereon is generally prepared by depositing components of target materials to predefined regions on the substrate, and, in some embodiments, simultaneously reacting the components to form at least two resulting materials. In particular, the present invention provides novel masking systems and methods for applying components of target materials onto a substrate in a combinatorial fashion, thus creating arrays of resulting materials that differ slightly in composition, stoichiometry, and/or thickness. Using the novel masking systems of the present invention, components can be delivered to each site in a uniform distribution, or in a gradient of stoichiometries, thicknesses, compositions, etc.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 1997Date of Patent: April 4, 2000Assignee: Symyx Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Xin Di Wu, Youqi Wang, Isy Goldwasser
