Patent number: 5049673Abstract: The present invention discloses a new class of calcium specific fluorescent indicator dyes having visible excitation and emission wavelengths. The new fluorescent indicator dyes combine at least one tricyclic chromophore with a tetracarboxylate parent CA.sup.2+ chelating compound having the octacoordinate pattern of liganding groups characteristic of BAPTA to give a rhodamine-like or fluorescein-like fluorophore. Binding of calcium.sup.2+ increases the fluorescence of the new compounds by up to 40-fold. The calcium.sup.2+ dissociation constants are in the range 0.37-2.3 microM, so that the new indicators give better resolution of high [CA.sup.2+ ] levels than were previously obtainable with predecessor compounds such as quin-2 or fluo-2. The visible excitation wavelengths of the new compounds are more convenient for fluorescent microscopy and flow cytometry than the UV required by previous indicators.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 1987Date of Patent: September 17, 1991Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Roger Y.

Patent number: 4564578Abstract: The novel thioxanthones of the formula I ##STR1## in which R.sub.1, R.sub.2, X and W are as defined in patent claim 1, are suitable, for example, for the preparation of photosensitive, compositions of matter which are capable of undergoing condensation or addition reactions and may or may not be crosslinkable, and which in turn are used for image formation, in particular by means of electroless deposition of metals. Such compositions of matter contain, for example, a thioxanthone of the formula I, an oligomer or polymer with terminal glycidyl groups and, where relevant, a crosslinking agent and/or a salt of a metal or group Ib or VIII of the Periodic Table.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 1983Date of Patent: January 14, 1986Assignee: Ciba-Geigy CorporationInventors: Jurgen Finter, Walter Fischer

Patent number: 4539412Abstract: 7-Hydroxylucanthone and 7-hydroxyhycanthone derivatives have been found to have significant antitumor effect. The derivatives are of the general formula: ##STR1## wherein the radicals R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are lower alkyl groups or other simple groups and R.sup.3 is OH where X.dbd.O, and H or OH where X.dbd.S.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 1984Date of Patent: September 3, 1985Assignee: Rensselaer Polytechnic InstituteInventor: Sydney Archer

Patent number: 4506083Abstract: Thioxanthonecarboxylic acid esters, thioesters or amides of the formula I ##STR1## in which X and Z are hydrogen or one of the substituents defined in more detail in claim 1 and Y is --OR.sub.1, --SR.sub.1 or --N(R.sub.1)(R.sub.2), in which R.sub.1 is C.sub.1-24 alkyl and R.sub.2 is H or R.sub.1, are suitable, if desired together with amines, as initiators for the photopolymerization of ethylenically unsaturated compounds or for photochemical crosslinking of polyolefines. They are also used an sensitizers for photocrosslinkable polymers. They can be prepared by methods known per se, for example by cyclization of phenylthio-phthalic, -isophthalic or -terephthalic acids, which can be correspondingly substituted, and subsequent reaction with suitable alcohols, thiols or amines.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 1982Date of Patent: March 19, 1985Assignee: Ciba-Geigy CorporationInventors: Vratislav Kvita, Hans Zweifel, Martin Roth, Louis Felder

Patent number: 4503066Abstract: The invention provides various medical compositions for use in treating or preventing certain of the side effects of diabetes or galactosemia. The active ingredients are selected from a series of novel aldose reductase inhibitory spiro-linked pyrrolidine-2,5-diones of the general formula: ##STR1## or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or a non-toxic, biodegradable precursor thereof. Processes for the production of these compounds are also provided. A particular compound suitable for use as an active ingredient is spiro[pyrrolidine-3,9'-xanthene]-2,5-dione.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 1982Date of Patent: March 5, 1985Assignee: Imperial Chemical Industries PLCInventors: David R. Brittain, Robin Wood
