The disclosure provides rho kinase inhibitor BA-1049(R), an hydroxy metabolite of BA-1049(R), and adipate salts and deuterated forms thereof, useful for treating CNS disorders and injuries.

Provided is a novel and industrially useful method for producing a 3,6-disubstituted imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine derivative. The present invention provides a method for producing a 3,6-disubstituted imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine derivative, which uses 6-fluoroimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine as a starting material, while using an aromatic substitution reaction that utilizes C—H activation by means of palladium.

The invention relates to methods for enriching monomer content in a cycloalkane oxidation process mixed organic waste stream. In particular, the methods involve combining a biocatalyst with a mixed organic waste stream from a cycloalkane oxidation process, and enzymatically converting dimeric and/or oligomeric components of said waste stream into monomeric components. The methods may enrich the content of diacids, adipic acid, and/or other α,ω-difunctional C6 alkanes in the mixed organic waste stream. Additionally, the treated mixed organic waste streams may have improved burning efficiency.

A method for concentrating and crystallizing fermentable carboxylic acids, salts, and mixtures thereof may involve the use of carboxylic acids that have a defined temperature dependence of the solubility and of the osmotic pressure. The carboxylic acids may be concentrated by a membrane method and subsequently crystallized out by a cooling crystallization and isolated. In some examples, the membrane method may involve nanofiltration, reverse osmosis, and/or membrane distillation for separation into a concentrate and a permeate. Similarly, an apparatus for implementing such methods may include a nanofiltration, reverse osmosis, and/or membrane distillation unit for concentrating the carboxylic acid, and at least one cooling crystallization unit for crystallizing the carboxylic acid.”
