William Banz - Carterville IL, US
Stuart Adler - Creve Coeur MO, US
Todd Winters - Murphysboro IL, US
Yuqing Hou - Carbondale IL, US
Walter Dandliker - La Jolla CA, US
Assignee:
Southern Illinois University
International Classification:
A61K031/56
US Classification:
514/182000
Abstract:
Provided are methods employing estrogenic compounds for: repressing weight gain or reducing weight in male patients; treating or preventing prostate cancer and peri- or post-menopausal symptoms; treating estrogen-responsive conditions that no longer respond to treatment with conventional steroidal estrogens; treating or preventing estrogen-responsive uterine cancer, breast cancer, and ovarian follicle atresia; inducing ovulation to increase fertility; oral contraception; treating or preventing diseases or conditions caused or prolonged by free radicals; treating or preventing cardiovascular disease, hyperlipidemia or hypercholesterolemia, and hyperglycemia; improving body fat distribution; and treating or preventing Alzheimer's disease, osteoporosis, and pattern baldness. Also provided are methods for treating or preventing prostatic diseases including benign prostate hyperplasia and other related conditions, androgen-responsive pathological conditions in males, and methods for male birth control and chemical castration, employing estrogenic carboxylic acids.

Process For Preparation Of Deuterated Methylene Chloride

View page
US Patent:
49670212, Oct 30, 1990
Filed:
Sep 9, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/242354
Inventors:
Cal Y. Meyers - Carbondale IL
Assignee:
Southern Illinois University Foundation - Carbondale IL
International Classification:
C07C 1724
C07C 1900
C07C 1902
US Classification:
570101
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of deuterated methylene chloride. The process comprises contacting methylene chloride with an aqueous phase containing deuteroxide ions in the presence of a phase-transfer catalyst.

Reactions Involving Carbon Tetrahalides And .Alpha.-Methyl Ketones Or Ketones Having .Alpha.,.Alpha.'-Hydrogens

View page
US Patent:
39534944, Apr 27, 1976
Filed:
Dec 14, 1970
Appl. No.:
5/098078
Inventors:
Cal Yale Meyers - Carbondale IL
Walter Sidney Matthews - Carbondale IL
Assignee:
Southern Illinois University Foundation - Carbondale IL
International Classification:
C07C 5128
C07C 6742
US Classification:
260468R
Abstract:
A process for preparing aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and esters by reaction of various substrates with carbon tetrahalides in the presence of a strong base. The reactions are accelerated by the presence of a polar solvent. Anions of the substrate attack the carbon tetrahalide to produce a halogenated intermediate and a dihalocarbene. The halogenated intermediate reacts with the base to form the indicated products. By the reactions of this process, primary alcohols are converted to aldehydes, carboxylic acids and esters, secondary alcohols are converted to ketones and ketones having an. alpha. -methyl group or both. alpha. and. alpha. ' hydrogens are converted to carboxylic acids and esters. Non. alpha. -methyl ketones having. alpha. but no. alpha. ' hydrogens are simply. alpha.

Process For Producing Aryl Alpha-Haloalkyl Sulfones

View page
US Patent:
39490017, Apr 6, 1976
Filed:
Dec 17, 1973
Appl. No.:
5/425294
Inventors:
Cal Yale Meyers - Carbondale IL
Walter Sidney Matthews - Carbondale IL
Ashok M. Malte - Poona, IN
Assignee:
Southern Illinois University Foundation - Carbondale IL
International Classification:
C07C14906
US Classification:
260607A
Abstract:
A process for preparing alkenes by reaction of various sulfone substrates with carbon tetrahalide in the presence of a strong base. The reactions are accelerated by the presence of a polar compound. Sulfone carbanions attack the carbon tetrahalide to produce an. alpha. -halogenated intermediate and a dihalocarbene. . alpha. -Halosulfones having. alpha. ' hydrogens are converted to alkenes in situ via the Ramberg-Backland reaction. Sulfones having. alpha. but no. alpha. ' hydrogens are simply. alpha. -halogenated. The dihalocarbene generated in the reaction may attack the product, solvent, or another substrate to form other products. Alkenes produced by reaction of carbon tetrahalides with di-sec-alkyl sulfones are readily attacked by dihalocarbene to form the alkene-dihalocarbene adduct (a substituted 1,1-dihalocyclopropane).
