Abstract: Application programming interfaces (APIs) may have different API schemas that may have different organizations of schema properties and entities or use different names for schema properties and entities. Where two or more APIs with different schemas are being used, it may be desired to map schema properties and/or entities between them. Semantic representations of API schema properties and entities may be used to assist with the mapping of schema properties and entities. The semantic representations may be used to suggest possible mappings to a user or to automatically determine a mapping without the involvement of a user.

Abstract: A first application programming interface (API) with a first schema may be adapted to work with a second API with a second schema using mappings of schema properties and a directed graph. An API call specification of the first API may receive first API schema properties as input and provide first API schema properties as outputs. The first API schema properties may be mapped to corresponding second API schema properties, such as using semantic representations of the schema properties. An implementation of an API call for the first API may be created by using the schema mappings and selecting a path from a directed graph corresponding to the second API, where the path includes a node corresponding to an API call of the second API. Computer code may be generated using nodes of the path, and the computer code may be stored for later use.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for preparing a fluorinated and silylated derivative having a bond between the bearing carbon of at least one fluorine and one silicon. This method comprises at least one step during which a derivative of formula (I) Rf—CO—O-D, in which D is selected among silylated radicals, is placed in the presence of a base. The inventive method is used for synthesizing fluorinated derivatives.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of compounds of general formula (3) wherein: (a) represents a single or double bond; W represents a group CH, CH2, CHCH3, CCH3, C(CH3)2, a group C(CH2)2 (i.e. a carbon atom carrying two methylene groups bonded to one another so as to form a spiro-cyclopropane moiety), with the proviso, however, that when (a) is a double bond then W represents exclusively a group CH or CCH3 and when (a) is a single bond then W represents exclusively a group CH2, CHCH3, C(CH3)2 or C(CH2)2.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for functionalizing a double bond and, more particularly, a double bond bearing a metalloid atom. Said functionalization is produced by the action of perhalogenated sulphonyl chloride on the carbon bearing sulphur in the presence of a free radical initiator, preferably by homolytic cleavage. The invention is useful in organic synthesis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a bismuth-type promoter and its use as a Lewis acid catalyst for acylation reactions of aromatic compounds. The promoter corresponds to the formula MY&mgr;−q&xgr;q, where M represents a &mgr;-valent and at least trivalent element in the cationic form, preferably known to give Lewis acids, where Y is a monovalent anion or a monovalent anionic functional group, where &xgr;− represents an anion or an anionic functional group carrying a sulfonyl functional group carried by a perhalogenated atom, preferably a perfluorinated atom, more preferably a perfluoromethylene (—CF2—); and where q is an integer advantageously chosen within the closed range (comprising the limits) ranging from 1 to (&mgr;−1) (that is to say, 1 or 2 when &mgr; is 3). The present application also relates to processes for the preparation of the promoter.
