    Abstract: Analogs of the antitumor antibiotics CC-1065 and the duocarmycins incorporate the 1,2,9,9a-tetrahydrocyclopropa[c]benz[e]indol-4-one (CBI) alkylation subunit. The CBI-based analogs have potent cytotoxic activity and are useful as efficacious antitumor compounds. A direct relationship between functional stability and in vitro cytotoxic potency is disclosed. The CBI-based analogs are easily synthesized and are 4× more stable and 4× more potent than the corresponding analogs containing the authentic CPI alkylation subunit of CC-1065 and comparable in potency to agents containing the authentic alkylation subunit of duocarmycin SA. Similarly, the CBI-based agents alkylate DNA with an unaltered sequence selectivity at an enhanced rate and with a greater efficiency than the corresponding CPI analog and were comparable to the corresponding analog incorporating the duocarmycin SA alkylation subunit.

  • Patent number: 6482567
    Abstract: New photoacid generator compounds (“PAGs”) are provided and photoresist compositions that comprise such compounds. In particular, non-ionic PAGs are provided that contain an oxime sulfonate group, and/or an N-oxyimidosulfonate group. PAGs of the invention are particularly useful as photoactive components of photoresists imaged at short wavelengths such as 248 nm, 193 nm and 157 nm.

  • Patent number: 6440889
    Abstract: An amine-elimination process for making single-site catalysts is disclosed. First, an indenoindole or its synthetic equivalent reacts with a tetrakis(dialkylamino) Group 4 metal compound to give a tris(dialkyl-amino) compound. This versatile intermediate can be halogenated, alkylated, or reacted directly with cyclopentadienyl precursors to provide valuable indenoindolyl-Group 4 metal complexes. The process selectively provides mono-indenoindolyl complexes. In addition, it enables the economical preparation of desirable Cp- or Cp-like derivatives and allows the use of an inexpensive Group 4 transition metal source.

  • Patent number: 6326391
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the fields of bacteriology and mycology. More particularly, the present invention provides novel inhibitors of multidrug transport proteins that may be used in combination with existing antibacterial agent and/or antifungal agents to increase the toxic effects of the antimicrobial agents. More specifically the present invention provides methods and compositions for enhancing the antibacterial action of fluoroquinolones by administering fluoroquinolones in combination with an inhibitor of multidrug transporters and of enhancing the antifungal action of azole antifungal agents by administering an azole antifungal agent in combination with an inhibitor of multidrug transporters. Compositions comprising indole, urea, quinoline or aromatic amide based inhibitors also are disclosed.
