  • Patent number: 4366240
    Abstract: 5- or 6-membered .alpha.-lactones of phenolic compounds, in which the phenyl ring carries a hydroxyl or amino group in its 2- or 4-position to the lactonized phenolic hydroxyl group and in which the lactone ring carries an electron accepting substituent, so that the lactone ring is readily cleavable at pH values of from 10 to 13 to form an electron donor compound (ED-compound) having a redox potential of less than +0.255 V determined against a normal calomel electrode at pH 0 are useful ED precursor compounds for non-diffusing reducible color providing compounds.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 17, 1981
    Date of Patent: December 28, 1982
    Assignee: Agfa-Gevaert Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Wolfgang Lassig, Ernst Meier, Siegfried Schleger
  • Patent number: 4275200
    Abstract: The condensation of an .alpha.-halogen carbonyl compound with carbamic acid esters in the presence of a basic condensing agent and an aprotic solvent enables the production of oxazolinone-2-compounds in a high degree of purity, and in high yields in one step by using simple and readily available starting compounds.
