Abstract:
The invention features 4 ((phenoxyalkyl)thio) phenoxyacetic acids and analogs, compositions containing them, and methods of using them as PPAR modulators to treat or inhibit the progression of, for example, dyslipidemia
Abstract:
The present invention provides valuable intermediates which can be used in the synthesis of a compound having polyene chain structure, processes for preparing the same, and a process for preparing beta -carotene by using said intermediates. The process for preparing beta -carotene (Chemical Formula 3) or a compound having polyene chain structure, is characterized in that the polyene chain structure is formed by applying Ramberg-Bäcklund reaction to a diallylic sulfone obtained by the oxidation of diallylic sulfide. Further, the present invention provides retinyl sulfide which was synthesized by the coupling of diallylic sulfide with the corresponding Wittig salt.

Abstract:
An overbased, sulfurized salt of at least one alkylated hydroxyaromatic compound, wherein the alkyl substituent of the hydroxyaromatic compound is a residue of at least one isomerized olefin having from about 15 to about 99 wt. % branching is disclosed. The overbased, sulfurized salt of at least one alkylated hydroxyaromatic compound is produced by the process comprising: (a) alkylating at least one hydroxyaromatic compound with at least one isomerized olefin having from about 15 to about 99 wt. % branching obtained by isomerizing at least one normal alpha olefin having from about 10 to about 40 carbon atoms, to provide at least one alkylated hydroxyaromatic compound; (b) neutralizing and sulfurizing the alkylated hydroxyaromatic compound in any order to provide at least one neutralized, sulfurized alkylated hydroxyaromatic compound; and (c) overbasing the at least one neutralized, sulfurized alkylated hydroxyaromatic compound.

Abstract:
The invention related to a process for the preparation of a bismercaptodiether by reacting a polysulfide with a monothiol in the presence of a base and to a process for the depolymerization of a polysulfide by reacting said polysulfide with a monothiol in the presence of a base. These processes enable the preparation of bismercaptodiethers without inorganic salt formation.
