IPC: C07C17/12
Filed: 1991-02-14
Abstract: Procédé à sélectivité de régions permettant de préparer du 4-bromo-o-xylène dans un mélange d'isomères de 4-bromo-o-xylène et de 3-bromo-o-xylène par combinaison d'un excédent molaire de brome avec du o-xylène. L'isomère de 3-bromo-o-xylène produit réagit de manière préférentielle avec le brome excendentaire afin de produire des dibromo-o-xylènes. Le rapport pondéral entre le 4-bromo-o-xylène et le 3-bromo-o-xylène dans le mélange d'isomères produit peut atteindre environ 97:3. On évite la production concurrente d'alpha-bromo-o-xylène en procédant au mélange soit dans l'obscurité soit dans une solution de dioxyde de soufre. On sépare aisément les produits dérivés de dibromo-o-xylène par distillation sous vide ultérieure ou analogue. L'emploi de faibles quantités de dioxyde de soufre permet également d'améliorer la sélectivité dans la formation de 4-bromo-o-xylène par rapport au 3-bromo-o-xylène, même lorsque le rapport molaire entre le brome et le o-xylène est égal ou inférieur à 1:1.

Title: Biodegradable polymer blends for drug delivery
Inventor: DOMB ABRAHAM J
IPC: A61K9/20
Filed: 1992-01-31
Abstract: Blends of polymers having properties distinct from the individual polymer components and that are suitable for use as carriers of pharmaceutically active agents, are prepared from two or more polyanhydrides, polyesters or mixtures of polyanhydrides and polyesters. The blends have different properties than the polymers used to prepare the blends, providing a means for altering the characteristics of a polymeric matrix without altering the chemical structure of the component polymers. Blends of various polyanhydrides, polyesters, and polyanhydrides and polyesters, containing pharmaceutically active agents, are prepared using solvent mixing or melt mixing procedures. It has been discovered that the rate of release of the agent from the blends is different than the rate of release from the individual polyanhydride and polyester polymer components, being a function of the blend composition
