  • Process for preparing voriconazole
    Patent number: 8263769
    Abstract: Optically pure voriconazole can be prepared in a high yield by a) subjecting 1-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-2(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)ethanone to Reformatsky-type coupling reaction with a substituted thiopyrimidine derivative to obtain a desired (2R,3S)/(2S,3R)-enantiomeric pair; b) removing the thiol derivative from the enantiomer to obtain racemic voriconazole; and c) isolating the racemic voriconazole by way of optical resolution using an optically active acid.

  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENCODING AND DECODING MULTI-VIEW IMAGES BASED ON GLOBAL DISPARITY VECTOR
    Publication number: 20120201474
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for encoding and decoding multi-view images. The multi-view image encoding method selects a block corresponding to a current block from another picture having a view-point which is different from a view-point of a current picture to which the current block belongs, on the basis of a global disparity vector representing a global disparity between the current picture and the other picture; and encodes the current block on the basis of block information of a block from among the selected block and blocks adjacent to the selected block. Accordingly, multi-view images can be encoded in consideration of the individual differences between the appearances of objects as well as global disparities between view-points.
