Compounds and compositions for delivering active agents

The present invention relates to methods, compounds, and compositions for treating or preventing diseases associated with nonsense mutations in an mRNA by administering the compounds or compositions of the present invention. More particularly, the present invention relates to methods, compounds, and compositions for suppressing premature translation termination associated with a nonsense mutation in an mRNA.

1,2,4-Oxadiazole benzoic acid compounds and their use for nonsense suppression and the treatment of disease

Compounds for nonsense suppression, and methods for their use

The invention relates to novel imidazolinyl benzoic acids, esters and salts, a method for the preparation of the compounds and methods for controlling undesirable plant species therewith.

Imidazolinyl benzoic acids, esters and salts and their use as herbicidal agents

The present invention relates to substituted diphenyl heterocycle compounds and pharmaceutical compositions thereof that inhibit replication of HCV virus. The present invention also relates to the use of the compounds and/or compositions to inhibit HCV replication and/or proliferation and to treat or prevent HCV infections.

Substituted diphenyl heterocycles useful for treating HCV infection

New 2-(1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-yl) benzoic acids and salts and esters thereof, as well as certain 2-(2-oxazolyl) benzoic acids, salts and esters, having the formula: ##SPC1## Where X is nitrogen or C-R" (R" being hydrogen or methyl), R is phenyl or various substituents, and R' and the Y's are hydrogen or various substituents, are effective preemergence or postemergence herbicides, on various crops. The chemicals act selectively and are useful against purple nutsedge and in cranberry. Oxadiazoles of the invention may be made by reacting a benzhydrazide with phthalic anhydride to form a hydrazide which is cyclized by removal of the elements of water, using as a catalyst fuming sulfuric acid or dimethylformamide-sulfur trioxide complex.

Oxadiazole benzoic acid derivatives as herbicides

Plant growth regulant effects, such as dwarfing, cessation of terminal growth, increased flower set, increased fruit and pod set, fruiting body abortion, twisting and epinastic responses, etc., may be accomplished on crops such as soybeans, cotton, etc., by application of certain 2-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) or 2-(2-oxazolyl) or 2-(1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzoic acids, salts and esters, having the formula ##SPC1## Where X is nitrogen or C--R" (R" being hydrogen or methyl), Z is oxygen or sulfur when X is nitrogen, Z is oxygen when X is C--R", R is phenyl or various substituents, and R' is hydrogen or various substituents. An example is 2-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)benzoic acid. The compounds where X is nitrogen and Z is sulfur are new compounds, e.g., 2-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzoic acid.

Plant growth regulants

Certain 2-(1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-yl) benzoic acids and salts and esters thereof, as well as certain 2-(2-oxazolyl) benzoic acids, salts and esters, having the formula: WHERE X is nitrogen or C-R'''' (R'''' being hydrogen or methyl), R is phenyl or various substituents, and R'' and the Y''s are hydrogen or various substituents (e.g., 2-(5-phenyl-1,3,4oxadiazole-2-yl) benzoic acid),are effective preemergence or postemergence herbicides, on various crops. The chemicals act selectively and are useful against purple nutsedge and in cranberry. Oxadiazoles of the invention may be made by reacting a benzhydrazide with phthalic anhydride to form a hydrazide which is cyclized by removal of the elements of water, using as a catalyst fuming sulfuric acid or dimethylformamide-sulfur trioxide complex.

Oxazole and oxadiazole benzoic acid derivatives as herbicides

Plant growth regulant effects, such as dwarfing, cessation of terminal growth, increased flower set, increased fruit and pod set, fruiting body abortion, twisting and epinastic responses, etc., may be accomplished on crops such as soybeans, cotton, etc., by application of certain 2-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) or 2-(2-oxazolyl) or 2-(1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzoic acids, salts and esters, having the formula ##STR1## where X is nitrogen or C--R" (R" being hydrogen or methyl), Z is oxygen or sulfur when X is nitrogen, Z is oxygen and when X is C--R", R is phenyl or various substituents, and R' is hydrogen or various substituents. An example is 2-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)benzoic acid. The compounds where X is nitrogen and Z is sulfur are new compounds, e.g., 2-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzoic acid.

Method of retarding the growth of plants using certain oxadiazolyl, oxazolyl or thiadiazolyl benzoic acid derivatives

Plant growth regulant effects, such as dwarfing, cessation of terminal growth, increased flower set, increased fruit and pod set, fruiting body abortion, twisting and epinastic responses, etc., may be accomplished on crops such as soybeans, cotton, etc., by application of certain 2-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) or 2-(2-oxazolyl) or 2-(1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzoic acids, salts and esters, having the formula ##STR1## where X is nitrogen or C-R" (R" being hydrogen or methyl), Z is oxygen or sulfur when X is nitrogen, Z is oxygen when X is C-R", R is phenyl or various substituents, and R' is hydrogen or various substituents. An example is 2-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) benzoic acid. The compounds where X is nitrogen and Z is sulfur are new compounds, e.g., 2-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzoic acid.
