  • Patent number: 7132536
    Abstract: The present invention relates to triaza- and tetraaza-anthracenedione derivatives of the formula I, wherein A, B and R1 to R5 are as defined herein. The compounds of formula I are valuable pharmacologically active compounds. They are useful in the treatment of various disease states including cardiovascular disorders such as atherosclerosis, thrombosis, coronary artery disease, hypertension and cardiac insufficiency. They upregulate the expression of the enzyme endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase and can be applied in conditions in which an increased expression of said enzyme or an increased NO level or the normalization of a decreased NO level is desired. The invention furthermore relates to processes for the preparation of compounds of the formula I, their use, in particular as active ingredients in pharmaceuticals, and pharmaceutical preparations comprising them.

  • Patent number: 7122323
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for synthesizing a combinatorial library comprising a plurality of chemical compounds such that the chemical composition of each compound is easily tracked. The library compounds are synthesized on solid-phase supports, which are spatially arranged in frames during synthesis according to a predetermined protocol, such that each solid-phase support passes through a series of unique spatial 2D or 3D addresses by which the chemical composition of each compound may be determined at any point during synthesis. Solid-phase supports include hollow tubular-shaped lanterns and gears.

  • Patent number: 6750448
    Abstract: The present invention provides an instrument and methods for the preparative separation of components of mixtures using mass spectrometric methods. Nondestructive ionization methods are employed to generate ionized components of a mixture, the ionized components are spatially separated by mass and the mass-separated ion components are trapped. The ion source and mass spectrometric techniques employed allow the generation of large ion currents of ion components, on the order of nanoamps, which facilitate rapid accumulation of nanomole quantities of mass-separated components in relatively short times (minutes to hours).
