摘要:
Described are contact lenses having photochromic materials within the central or pupillary area of the lens and methods for manufacturing such lenses. In one method, a photochromic amount of at least one photochromic material is added to the pupillary region of a casting mold containing a polymerizable monomer that can be at least partially cured before and/or after the addition. Another method involves providing an amount of polymerizable photochromic monomer for the pupillary region and an amount of polymerizable non-photochromic monomer for the remainder of the contact lens in a casting mold. The photochromic and non-photochromic monomers can differ by their degree of polymerization, viscosity and/or density.
摘要:
The present invention relates to photochromic materials that include one or more indeno-fused naphthopyrans that have particular groups at the 7, 11, and 13 positions thereof, and at the position alpha to the oxygen of the pyran ring thereof. With some embodiments, hydrogen or an alkoxy group is bonded to the 7 position, an optionally substituted phenyl is bonded to the 11 position, two alkyl groups are bonded to the 13 position, and two optionally substituted phenyl groups are bonded to the position alpha to the oxygen of the pyran ring of the indeno-fused naphthopyran compound. The 13 position of the indeno-fused naphthopyrans is free of ether groups in which an ether oxygen is bonded to the 13 position, and hydroxyl. The present invention also relates to photochromic articles and compositions that include such indeno-fused naphthopyrans.

Described are polymeric matrix compatibilized naphthopyran compounds, examples of which are certain 2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyrans, 3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyrans and indeno[2,1-f]naphtho[1,2-b]pyrans each having at least one substituent containing terminal and/or pendant groups selected from hydroxyl, carboxyl, sulfo, sulfono, (meth)acryloxy, 2-(methacryloxy)ethylcarbamyl, epoxy or a mixture thereof. Specific substituents are also present on the naphtho, indeno and/or pyrano portions of the compounds. These compounds may be represented by the following graphic formulae: Also described are various substrates that contain or that are coated with such compounds. Optically clear articles such as contact lenses or other plastic transparencies that incorporate the novel naphthopyran compounds or combinations thereof with complementary photochromic compounds, are also described.

Described are photochromic articles that include a substrate and a photochromic amount of at least one organic photochromic material (b) represented by graphic formula XIII adapted to change from an unactivated state to an activated state by exposure to radiation substantially in a wavelength range from 380 to 410 nanometers (nm) when measured over a wavelength range of from 380 to 700 nm. The photochromic articles demonstrate a photochromic response when activated behind an ultraviolet blocking transparency such as an automotive windshield. For example, the photochromic articles retain at least 12 percent of the activation measured as change in optical density or delta OD under outdoor simulating conditions in the Outdoor Test when tested under conditions simulating an eyeglass wearer behind an automotive windshield in the Behind the Windshield Test. Methods for producing the aforedescribed photochromic articles are also described.

The present invention relates to organic light emitting devices (OLEDs), and more specifically to phosphorescent organic materials used in such devices. More specifically, the present invention relates to emissive phosphorescent material which comprise at least one tridentate ligand bound to a metal center, wherein at least one of the bonds to the tridentate ligand is a carbon-metal bond.
摘要:
Compounds comprising phosphorescent metal complexes comprising cyclometallated imidazo[1,2-f]phenanthridine and diimidazo[1,2-a:1′,2′-c]quinazoline ligands, or isoelectronic or benzannulated analogs thereof, are described. Organic light emitting diode devices comprising these compounds are also described.
摘要:
The present invention relates, in general, to nicotinic acid receptor ligands and, in particular, to ligands that have a relative efficacy for activating a G-protein-coupled receptor function (e.g., signaling) that is greater than their relative efficacy for stimulating β-arrestin function (e.g., recruitment and/or signaling). The invention further relates to the use of such “biased ligands” to decrease triglycerides levels and to potentially increase high density lipoprotein (HDL) levels in patients and potentially lower low density lipoprotein (LDL) and/or very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) levels. In addition, the invention relates to methods of identifying such “biased ligands”.
