Abstract: The modification of rigid amino polyols by their reaction with epoxy resin and alkylene oxides is described. The modified polyols produce rigid polyurethane foams that have higher heat distortion temperatures and better low temperature properties than foams made with nonmodified polyols. The viscosities of the epoxy resin-modified amino polyols are not significantly different than those of the prior art amino polyols although they are of a higher functionality.

Abstract: Novel benzene-propanamines of the formula ##STR1## wherein X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, chlorine, fluorine and bromine, R.sub.1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, R.sub.2 is alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, R.sub.3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, chlorine, bromine, --CF.sub.3, methyl and methoxy when R.sub.4 is nitro and R.sub.3 is selected from the group consisting of amino and acetamido when R.sub.4 is hydrogen and their non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts having anorexigenic activity and inhibit serotonine uptake in vivo and in vitro and their preparation.

Abstract: The invention relates to compounds of the general formula (I) ##STR1## and physiologically acceptable salts, N-oxides, hydrates and bioprecursors thereof, in which Y represents .dbd.O, .dbd.S, .dbd.CHNO.sub.2 or .dbd.NR.sub.3 where R.sub.3 represents hydrogen, nitro, cyano, lower alkyl, aryl, lower alkylsulphonyl or arylsulphonyl; R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which may be the same or different, each represent hydrogen lower alkyl, cycloalkyl, lower alkenyl, aralkyl, hydroxy, lower trifluoroalkyl, lower alkyl substituted by hydroxy, lower alkoxy, amine, lower alkylamino or dialkylamino, or R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a 5 to 7 membered heterocyclic ring which may contain other heteroatoms or the group ##STR2## where R.sub.

Abstract: Dyestuffs are provided which contain one or more 1,3-dicyanobenzene radicals linked to the dyestuff at the 2-, 4- or 6-position, with halogen substituents in both of the remaining two of these positions and an electron-attracting substituent in the 5-position. These dyestuffs reactively dye cellulose at low temperatures and are less prone to "acid-bleeding" than some known reactive dyes. More particularly, those dyestuffs have the formula: ##STR1## where D is a chromophoric groupn is 1 or 2, ##STR2## where R is H, C.sub.1-4 alkyl, C.sub.1-4 alkyl substituted by OH, OSO.sub.3 H, CN or SO.sub.3 H or is phenyl.Each hal independently represents a chlorine or fluorine atom occupying one of the remaining 2-, 4- and 6-positions of the benzene nucleus, and Y is H, F, Cl, CN, NO.sub.2 or SO.sub.3 H.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel 2-decarboxy-2-aminomethyl-19,20-didehydro-PG.sub.1 compounds, methods for their preparation and pharmacological use for the induction of prostaglandin-like effect.
