Abstract: The system in accordance with the present invention recognizes in real time that a call connection of a hybrid access terminal be switched over to a 1X system, by sending an inquiry message inquiring the hybrid access terminal of whether the hybrid access terminal has received voice signal or a low-rate data signal and by receiving a confirmation message that the hybrid access terminal has received the voice signal or the low-rate data signal from a mobile switching center, if a low-level signal below a prescribed level is received from the hybrid access terminal while counting time initiated from a point of a call drop while the hybrid access terminal is being provided with a multimedia service.

Abstract: The invention is a process for preparing an imidazole of formula I 1

Abstract: Benzamide compounds of Formula VII are prepared by reacting a benzoate compound of Formula V with an amine to obtain a benzamide compound of Formula VI, and then treating the benzamide VI with an amine deprotecting agent to obtain the benzamide VII; wherein R1 and R2 are each independently H, alkyl, substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, aryl, or substituted aryl; R3 is alkyl, -alkylaryl, or aryl; and P* is an amino protective group.

Abstract: The preparation of sultams is disclosed. In one embodiment (e.g. scheme (I)), an alkanesulfonyl halide is reacted with a haloalkylamine to obtain the corresponding N-(haloalkyl)alkanesulfonamide which is then cyclized in the presence of a deprotonating agent to give the sultam. The sultams are useful as intermediates in the preparation of naphthyridine carboxamide compounds which are HIV integrase inhibitors.

Abstract: An improved and efficient synthesis for the preparation of 2-amino-6-[(4-aminopiperidin-1-yl]methyl]pyridine, an intermediate compound in the preparation of muscarinic M3 receptor antagonists, includes as a final step the removal of trimethylacetyl and an amino protecting group from 2-trimethylacetyl-amino-6-[(4-protected aminopiperidin-1-yl)methyl]pyridine.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with novel processes for the preparation of (2S)-phenyl-3-piperidone. This compound is useful as an intermediate in the synthesis of compounds which possess pharmacological activity.
