Patent CA-2618700-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MAZUROV ANATOLY

Filed: 2006-08-21
Abstract: The present invention relates to amide and urea derivatives of heteroaryl-substituted diazatricycloalkanes, pharmaceutical compositions including the compounds, methods of preparing the compounds, and methods of treatment using the compounds. More specifically, the methods of treatment involve modulating the activity of the α7 nAChR subtype by administering one or more of the compounds to treat or prevent disorders mediated by the α7 nAChR subtype. The diazatricycloalkanes typically consist of a 1-azabicyclooctane fused to pyrrolidine ring. The substituent heteroaryl groups are 5- or 6-membered ring heteroaromatics, such as 3-pyridinyl and 5-pyrimidinyl moieties, which are attached directly to the diazatricycloalkane. The secondary nitrogen of the pyrrolidine moiety is substituted with an arylcarbonyl (amide type derivative) or an arylaminocarbonyl (N-arylcarbamoyl) (urea type derivative) group. The compounds are beneficial in therapeutic applications requiring a selective interaction at certain nAChR subtypes. That is, the compounds modulate the activity of certain nAChR subtypes, particularly the α7 nAChR subtype, and do not have appreciable activity toward muscarinic receptors. Radiolabeled versions of the compounds can be used in diagnostic methods.

Title: Continuous electro-chemical reduction of carbon dioxide
Inventor: LI HUI
IPC: C25B9/19
Filed: 2006-10-13
Abstract: In various embodiments, the invention provides electro-chemical processes for reduction of carbon dioxide, for example converting carbon dioxide to formate salts or formic acid. In selected embodiments, operation of a continuous reactor with a three dimensional cathode and a two-phase (gas/liquid) catholyte flow provides advantageous conditions for electro-reduction of carbon dioxide. In these embodiments, the continuous two-phase flow of catholyte solvent and carbon dioxide containing gas, in selected gas/liquid phase volume flow ratios, provides dynamic conditions that favour the electro-reduction of COs at relatively high effective superficial current densities and gas space velocities, with relatively low reactor (cell) voltages (<10 Volts). In some embodiments, relatively high internal gas hold-up in the cathode chamber (evident in an internal gas to liquid phase volume ratio >  0.1) may provide greater than equilibrium CO2 concentrations in the liquid phase, also facilitating relatively high effective superficial current densities. In some embodiments, these characteristics may for example be achieved at catholyte pH > 7 and relatively low CO2 partial pressures (< 10 bar). In some embodiments, these characteristics may for example be achieved under near adiabatic conditions, with catholyte outlet temperature up to about 80~C.
