Appeal No. 96-2721
Application No. 08/148,764
between the aryl group and the heterocyclic group is
substantially different in the compounds of Kadin and Young
(Young employs a Y substituent as a linking group between the
aryl and heterocyclic groups), and the compounds of Kadin have
only one non-carbon atom in the heterocyclic ring whereas the
compounds of Young have two non-carbon atoms in the
heterocyclic ring (X of Young is defined at column 3, lines4
19 et seq.).
In conclusion, based on the foregoing, the examiner's
decision rejecting the appealed claims is reversed.
