Abstract: Described herein are compounds of Formulas (I), (II), and (III) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, related compositions and preparations thereof, as well as methods of making and using the same.

Abstract: Described herein are polymers, polymeric gels, or a composition thereof, for drug delivery. The polymers, which include boronic-acid containing moieties (e.g., and polyol-containing moieties (e.g., are prepared by free-radical polymerization and can self-assemble into polymeric gels such as hydrogels. Also provided are methods or preparing the polymers, kits involving the polymers and/or polymeric gels or a composition thereof, for use as materials or delivery applications of an agent to a subject.

Abstract: The invention describes novel nitric oxide donors and novel compositions comprising at least one nitric oxide donor. The invention also provides novel compositions comprising at least one nitric oxide donor, and, optionally, at least one therapeutic agent. The compounds and compositions of the invention can also be bound to a matrix. The invention also provides methods for treating cardiovascular diseases, for the inhibition of platelet aggregation and platelet adhesion caused by the exposure of blood to a medical device, for treating pathological conditions resulting from abnormal cell proliferation; transplantation rejections, autoimmune, inflammatory, proliferative, hyperproliferative, vascular diseases; for reducing scar tissue or for inhibiting wound contraction, particularly the prophylactic and/or therapeutic treatment of restenosis by administering the nitric oxide donor optionally in combination with at least one therapeutic agent.

Abstract: The present invention is a method of preparing a 3-aryl-1-indanamine represented by structural formula I: and physiologically acceptable salts thereof. In structure I, phenyl ring A can be unsubstituted or substituted with 1-4 substitutents. R1 is an aromatic group which can be substituted or unsubstituted. R2 and R3 are each, independently, hydrogen, an aliphantic group, a substituted aliphatic group, an aromatic group, a substituted aromatic group, an aralkyl group, or a substituted aralkyl group. Alternatively, R2 and R3, taken together with the nitrogen substitutent on the indan ring, form a non-aromatic ring system having 1-2 heteroatoms.
