4,4'-Bis(4-hydroxyphenylthio)biphenyl. Krishnan, Sivaram; Sanderson, John R. (Mobay Chemical Corp., USA). Ger. Offen. DE 3318356 A1 15 Dec 1983, 8 pp. (German). (Germany). CODEN: GWXXBX. CLASS: IC: C07C149-36; C08G063-62. APPLICATION: DE 83-3318356 20 May 1983. PRIORITY: US 82-383893 1 Jun 1982. DOCUMENT TYPE: Patent CA Section: 35 (Chemistry of Synthetic High Polymers) Section cross-reference(s): 25 4,4'-(4,4'-Biphenylylenedithio)diphenol (I) [88819-29-8], useful in the manuf. of polycarbonates, polyesters, polyurethanes, etc., is prepd. from 4,4'-dibromobiphenyl (II) [92-86-4] and HSC6H4OH-p [637-89-8] in DMF in the presence of K2CO3. Thus, adding 69.3 g p-HSC6H4OH in 200 mL DMF over 1 h to 75.9 g K2CO3 in 200 mL DMF stirred at 80-90°, stirring 2 h at 100-110°, adding 78 g solid II over 1 h, and refluxing 18 h gave 34% I.

DOCUMENT TYPE: Patent CA Section: 28 (Heterocyclic Compounds (More Than One Hetero Atom)) Section cross-reference(s): 1 Title compds. I [wherein Z = O, NH, or S; m = 0-1; R1 = (un)substituted (alkyl)a((hetero)cycloalkyl or (hetero)aryl)b(alkyl)c; a, b, and c = independently 0-1 and a + b + c 3 1, with provisos; R2 = H, NH2, or NHCOR3; R3 = H or alkyl; X = (un)substituted aryl; and pharmaceutically acceptable esters, amides, salts, or solvates thereof] were prepd. Pharmaceutical compns. which contain I, methods for their prepn., and their use in therapy, particularly in the treatment of neurodegenerative or other neurol. disorders of the central and peripheral nervous systems, including age related cognitive disorders such as senility and Alzheimer's disease, nerve injuries, peripheral neuropathies, and seizure disorders such as epilepsy, are disclosed. For example, 4-chloro-5-(4-chlorophenylethynyl)pyrimidine (prepn. given) was coupled with (trans)-4-aminocyclohexanol·HCl using TEA and MeCN in CH2Cl2 to afford II. The latter increased the choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activity relative to nerve growth factor (NGF) alone with EC2x of 0.2 mM.
