    Abstract: Novel photochromic and electrochromic hexadiene compounds are described. The compounds are reversibly convertible between ring-open and ring-closed isomeric forms as indicated in structures I(o) and I(c) below. (See formula in original abstract of application) The conversion between the different isomeric forms may be induced by light or electricity. In one embodiment the compounds may include a charge transfer moiety including electron donor and acceptor groups. The electron donor and acceptor are linearly conjugated in the ring-open form to enable electron transfer but are electrically insulated in the ring-closed form. Methods for synthesizing the compounds from photochemically and/or electrically inert precursors are also described. For example, the photoresponsive compounds may be synthesized by reacting diene precursors with dienophiles in a condensation reaction. The compounds may be utilized in reactivity-gated photochromic or electrochromic applications.

  • Patent number: 7605173
    Abstract: A pharmaceutical liquid composition containing the Pirfenidone in a very high concentration of more or less 25% by weight can be obtained by dissolving the Pirfenidone in diethylene glycol monoethyl ether. Even when the liquid medicinal compositions are stored for a long period of time, the Pirfenidone will not be recrystallized with a good chemical and physical stability. Furthermore, the liquid compositions are little irritating to the wounds on the mucous membrane of the skin and suitable for the manufacture of pharmaceutical formulations to be administered either via the oral, percutaneous, nasal or vaginal routes or by means of spray, patch, inhalation, injection or intravenous drip.
