                     (SX 2003, col. 2, line 55 to col. 3, line 53).  Shiokawa ‘146 provides three examples, Examples 5-7,                                                              

                     describing the preparation of 1,3,5-triazine intermediate compounds that fall within the scope of general                                                         

                     formula (III’).  (SX 2003, col. 17, line 26 to col. 18, line 43).                                                                                                 



                     7.         Shiokawa ‘146 provides four examples of the preparation of compounds of the invention.  In                                                             

                     particular, Example 1 describes the preparation of a 3-cyanoiminomorpholine heterocyclic intermediate                                                             

                     compound and the subsequent formation of 4-(2-chloro-5-pyridylmethyl)-3-cyanoiminomorpholine.                                                                     

                     Example 2 describes the preparation of 5-methyl-2-nitroimino-hexahydro-1,3,5-triazine.  Example 3                                                                 

                     describes the preparation of 5-methyl-2-cyanoimino-hexahydro-1,3,5-triazine.  Example 4 describes                                                                 

                     the preparation of 1-(2-chloro-5-pyridylmethyl)-5-methoxy-2-nitroimino-hexahydro-1,3,5-triazine.                                                                  


                                1The term “1,3,5-triazine” refers to a six-membered ring bearing three nitrogen heteroatoms,                                                           
                     the ring being in its fully unsaturated form, i.e., the ring contains three double bonds.  (Nomenclature of

                     Maienfisch have adopted the term 1,3,5-triazines as shorthand for  the fully saturated hexahydro-1,3,5-                                                           
                     triazines, we will follow the parties lead and likewise adopt the term “1,3,5-triazines” as shorthand for                                                         
                     the compound hexahydro-1,3,5-triazine.  (Shiokawa Motion 13, Paper No. 102, p. 7, fn. 4 and SX                                                                    
                     2096, p.4, fn. 3).
