Title: Process for the preparation of optically active derivatives of 2-(2-pyridylmethylsulfinyl)-benzimidazole via inclusion complex with 1,1'-binaphthalene-2, 2'diol
Inventor: BERENGUER MAIMO RAMON
IPC: A61K31/4439
Filed: 2006-02-22
Abstract: Process for the preparation of optically active derivatives of 2-(2-piridylmethylsulfinyl)-benzimidazole, or salts thereof, by resolution of the corresponding racemic derivatives of 2-(2-piridylmethylsulfinyl)-benzimidazole. The resolution is performed through the formation of inclusion complexes with (S)-(-) or (R)-(+)-[1,1'-Binaphthalene]-2,2'-diol in the presence of an amine, followed by the break of the inclusion complex by treatment with an hydroxide of an alkaline metal. The enantiomer of the derivative of 2-(2-piridylmethylsulfinyl)-benzimidazole may be obtained by extractions at a particular pH with a suitable organic solvent. The process allows to perform the resolution with high yields and high optical purity, without using neither toxic solvents nor chromatography.

The proposed technique comprises also an efficient and shape adaptive local power estimation for equivalent additive noise and provides simple noise power weighting for each above cited region. Temporal filtering configurations using Minimum Noise Variance Criterion are proposed for reducing temporally varying coding artifacts. A  Minimum Mean Square Error or Minimum Mean Square Error-like noise reduction with robust and effective shape adaptive windowing is utilized for smoothing mosquito and/or random noise for the whole image, particularly for Edge regions. The proposed technique comprises also signal domain histogram analysis based Block Localization and adaptive edge based Block artifact correction. Finally, is also proposed an optional adaptive detail enhancer which can enhances the luminance signal in eight directions differently.

Abstract: A fabric having at least one hydraulically napped surface comprised of tangled fibers is disclosed. Because the fiber tangles are created from intact, undamaged fibers, fabric strength is not adversely affected by treatment. In addition, laundering enhances entanglement and the aesthetic qualities attributed to this fabric property:  surface texture (hand), resistance to pilling, drapeability, and the like. These subjective characteristics have been quantified using values from the Kawabata Evaluation System. A process for creating such fabrics has also been disclosed. The fabric passes through one or two treatment zone in which high pressure fluids (e.g., water) are directed at the fabric surface as the fabric moves away from a support member. In the case of dual treatment zones, a substantially lower pressure is used in the second treatment zone.
