Appeal No. 96-0008
Application 08/243,428
appellants, Rozen et al. did not disclose the making of 1,1,2-
trifluro-1,5-hexadiene, which compound is used as the starting
material for one of the presently claimed compounds. It is
our understanding that the claimed epoxides are made by
procedures found in Rozen et al. performed on starting
materials disclosed in U.S. 5,015,790 and U.S. 5,043,490,
which commonly-assigned patents are not available as prior art
to the present application (see page 9 of appellants' brief,
second paragraph, as well as the paragraph bridging pages 9
and 10).
In conclusion, based on the foregoing, the examiner's
decision rejecting the appealed claims is reversed.
