Appeal No. 95-0944
Application 07/748,730
sulfide as a reactant among a laundry list of possible reactants,
and diphenyl sulfide is not the same compound as diphenyl
disulfide. The examiner urges that one having ordinary skill in
the art would have been motivated to employ the particular
diphenyl sulfide reactant employed by appellant since it is
encompassed by Forbus; however, the examiner has cited no
reference teaching the equivalence of diphenyl sulfide and
diphenyl disulfide in a process similar to that claimed here.
For the foregoing reasons, we cannot sustain this rejection.
