  • Patent number: 9196844
    Abstract: A novel method includes a synthetic pathway in which ?-diketone and a 1-(haloaryl)ethane-1,2-diamine derivative are cyclized to each other to form a 2-(haloaryl)pyrazine derivative. Further, a 2-arylpyrazine derivative having an aryl group or a heteroaryl group as a substituent is synthesized by coupling the 2-(haloaryl)pyrazine derivative obtained by the above synthetic pathway and an arylboronic acid or a heteroarylboronic acid. The 2-arylpyrazine derivative obtained by the novel method is useful for a light-emitting element, a light-emitting device, an electronic device, or a lighting device with high emission efficiency.

  • Patent number: 9085772
    Abstract: In order to provide a screening method for a compound capable of suppressing a mechanism of ROR1 by targeting ROR1 and to provide a drug comprising as an active ingredient a compound capable of suppressing the mechanism, it has been found out that suppressing a function of ROR1 makes it possible to suppress receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated pro-survival signaling in a cancer cell. Further, it has been found out that suppressing a function of ROR1 also effectively suppresses growth of cancer cell lines having acquired resistance to inhibitors of receptor tyrosine kinases such as EGFR and MET.
