Abstract:
The invention relates to a reagent which is useful for the synthesis of oxysulphide-containing fluorine-containing organic derivatives by reacting with an oxide of sulphur, especially sulphur dioxide, characterized in that it comprises:a) a fluorocarboxylic acid of formula E.sub.w --CF.sub.2 --COOH where E.sub.w is an electron-withdrawing group or atom which is at least partially salified by an organic or inorganic cation, andb) an aprotic polar solvent; andin that the content of releasable protons carried by its various components, including their impurities, is at most equal to half the initial molar concentration of the said fluorocarboxylic acid.This reagent can be used by heating in order to form fluorine-containing sulphinic or sulphonic acids.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of perhaloalkanesulfinic and -sulfonic acids and derivatives of these acids. A perhaloalkanesulfinic acid salt is prepared by contacting a metal hydroxymethanesulfinate (preferably, a sodium, zinc or copper hydroxymethanesulfinate) with a perhaloalkyl halide group, in a polar solvent. Optionally, the perhaloalkanesulfinic acid salt is then converted to a perhaloalkanesulfinic or -sulfonic acid or a derivative of either of these acids.
Abstract:
Provided herein are fatty acid amide (FAAH) cleavable prodrugs of thyromimetics and pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient further comprising a peripherally restricted FAAH inhibitor.
