  • Publication number: 20170349609
    Abstract: A novel crystalline form is defined by diffraction angle 2?° of X-ray powder diffraction pattern and characteristic peak of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The novel crystalline form of Cefamandole Nafate is prepared as follows: adding Cefamandole Nafate in solid state to an organic solvent to form a suspension with a concentration of 0.04˜0.3 g/ml, stirring the suspension at 40˜50° C. for a period of time, and then cooling to 5˜15° C. at certain cooling rate, continuing to stir for a period of time, then suction filtrating the obtained suspension, the resulting filer cake is Cefamandole Nafate as wet product, which is dried to constant weight to provide the novel crystalline form of Cefamandole Nafate as final product.

  • Publication number: 20170349610
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the cost-effective and environmentally responsible preparation of alkyl indium sesquichloride in high yield and with high selectivity and purity. The alkyl indium sesquichloride prepared in accordance with the invention is particularly suitable, also as a result of its high purity and yield, for preparation of indium-containing precursors in accordance with demand, in high yield and with high selectivity and purity. As a result of the high purity, the indium-containing precursors that are preparable are particularly suitable for metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) or metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE). The novel process according to the invention is characterized by the improved execution of the process, in particular by rapid process control. Owing to targeted and extensive use of raw materials that are inexpensive and have a low level of environmental pollution, the process is also suitable for use on an industrial scale.

    Abstract: Modified silica particles are provided. Aspects of the particles include an outer layer that is composed of organically-modified silica comprising a siloxane-linked hydrophilic group, such as a charged functional group or a polar neutral functional group. The modified silica particles can form the basis of a variety of chromatography support materials. Also provided are methods of preparing the subject particles. Aspects of the methods include contacting silica particles with water, an ionic fluoride and an organosilane reagent comprising a hydrophilic moiety to produce modified silica particles wherein the hydrophilic moiety of the organosilane reagent is incorporated into an outer layer of the silica particles. Chromatography supports and kits including the subject particles and methods of using the same are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20170349614
    Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to obtain an organosilicon compound containing an isocyanate group by thiol-ene addition reaction from a corresponding organosilicon compound having a mercapto group and an isocyanate compound having a polymerizable group. Provided is a silane coupling agent which includes a specific linking structure in which a sulfur atom is indispensably contained in a linking chain which connects an isocyanate group to a hydrolyzable silyl group. Compared to silane coupling agents for use in existing technologies, this silane coupling agent has enhanced hydrophobicity and an increased organic-moiety proportion due to the sulfur-containing linking structure.
