Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel catting apparatus capable of effectively cutting a material via movement in at least two different directions. In certain embodiments, the cutting apparatus comprises cutting elements with at least two cutting surfaces. Such cutting elements are capable of effectively penetrating a material when moved with an applied force in the direction that at least one cutting surface is oriented. Such cutting elements may be configured for use with a variety of cutting apparatus, including but not limited to chainsaws, circular saws, band saws, jigsaws or tigersaws.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to processes for the preparation of compounds useful as inhibitors of p38 kinase. The processes of the present invention are amenable for large scale preparation and produce stable phenyl-6-(l-(phenyl)ureido)nicotinamides in high purity and yields.
Abstract:
The present invention is related to the accelerated aging of spirits through a centrally deposed, substantially vertically placed insert in a volume of spirits or alcohol. The insert may be a segment of charred wood, namely oak, in a specific volume and percentage of ethyl alcohol containing liquid. The present invention's novelty is a result of the vertical orientation of said insert of charred wood and the realized effects of such placement wherein a number of physical and chemical reactions occur as a result of specific interactions between alcohol and air trapped within the wood. The resulting comingling of wood and alcohol containing liquid facilitates release of certain coloring and flavor components, leaching from the wood and into the surrounding liquid, which leads to a hastening of the aging process.
Abstract:
The invention provides a process for the preparation of a compound of Formula 1; comprising coupling a carboxylic acid of Formula 2; with an aniline of Formula 3; in the presence of a coupling agent.
