Abstract: The present invention discloses a process for the preparation of a novel heterogeneous osmate catalyst of the general formula (S—NR3)2OsO4.nH2O wherein S is a support, R is an alkyl group, n is the number of water molecules by reacting potassium osmate with supported quaternary ammonium species in an aqueous solvent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the synthesis of highly active modified carbon supported palladium catalyst by simultaneously impregnating activated carbon with a palladium precursor and an aluminium precursor. The carbon supported palladium catalyst is useful for the hydrodechlorination of dichlorodifluoromethane to produce difluoromethane.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the in situ synthesis of acid or cationic form of heteropolyacid of molybdenum or tungsten due to the interaction of the cationic compound with the acidic or salt form of Mo or W and the phosphate ion of a solid support.

Abstract: Optics used in a high vacuum environment are mounted by bonding by use of addition polymerizing material which used in that environment. The suitability for use in the high vacuum environment is achieved by precise control of outgassing of trapped and dissolved gases, including low molecular weight hydrocarbons and amines, and unreacted material from component parts of said addition polymerizing material. A plurality of application quantities of the polymer are prepared in a large batch for use as pre-mixed frozen (PMF) material. The use of the large batch enables more precise control of mixture so that near-stoichiometric proportions of the polymer components are easily achieved.

Abstract: A premix parenteral solution for intravenous administration having amiodarone, as an active ingredient, solubilized in a solution of distilled water and about 0.4-12 mg/ml of a non-ionic surfactant to a concentration range of from 0.2 to 6 mg/ml is disclosed. The solution optionally may include an osmotic agent. No dilution of the solution is required before administering to a patient and the sterile packaged solution has an initial pH within the range of from about 2.9 to about 3.2, preferably about 3.1. Additionally, a method for producing an amiodarone solution suitable for intravenous administration is further disclosed.

Abstract: A syringe having a syringe body of a norbornene and ethylene copolymer, the body defining a chamber for containing water and having an opening, a plunger seal of a halobutyl-based elastomer sealing the opening; and wherein the syringe meets all requirements of the United States Pharmocopoeia for sterile water for injection.

Abstract: This invention relates to the isolation of two compounds namely (−)- Matairesinol and (−)- Wikstromol. These together with or associated with therapeutically acceptable additives are useful as antioxidants and as free radical scavengers.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for the preparation of high quality amine oxide by reacting a tertiary or secondary amine with hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant in presence of a recyclable heterogeneous layered double hydroxide exchanged with one of the anions of transition metal oxides as a catalyst in a solvent selected from the group consisting of water, water containing dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid sodium salt as additive, and a water miscible organic solvent.
