Patent number: 7078535Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of 6-(4-chlorophenyl)-2,2-dimethyl-7-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolizin-5-ylacetic acid, in which 5-benzyl-3,3-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole is reacted with ?-bromo-4-chloroacetophenone with formation of 6-(4-chlorophenyl)-2,2-dimethyl-7-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolizine and the acetic acid group is introduced into the 5-position, 5-benzyl-3,3-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole being obtained by hydrogenation of 2,2-dimethyl-4-oxo-5-phenylvaleronitrile or a ketal thereof. The invention also relates to processes for the preparation of intermediates occurring in the above process.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2002Date of Patent: July 18, 2006Assignee: Merckle GmbHInventors: Gerd Dannhardt, Thomas Kammermeier, Philipp Merckle, Hans-Günter Striegel, Stefan Laufer

Patent number: 6878738Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of the formula I in which one of the radicals R8 and R9 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group and the other is hydroxyl, alkoxy or acyloxy or where R8 and R9, together with the carbon atom to which they are bonded, are a carbonyl group and the radicals R1 to R7 have the meanings indicated in the description. The compounds inhibit the release of various mediators of the arachidonic acid cascade and can thus be used for the prevention of allergically induced disorders or for the treatment of disorders of the rheumatic type.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 1999Date of Patent: April 12, 2005Assignee: Merckle GmbHInventors: Stefan Laufer, Karola Tollmann, Hans-Guenter Striegel
