Appeal No. 2002-2283 Application No. 08/882,513 in any form other than that appearing in a 2002 ACS CAPLUS publication. The 2002 ACS CAPLUS publication is not itself prior art with respect to the subject matter defined by the claims on appeal. However, for purposes of this appeal only, we will presume that the disclosure of the 2002 ACS CAPLUS publication of CA 111:153338 is identical to CA 111:153338 itself. The 2002 ACS CAPLUS publication of record reads: The title compds. R1R2NCH2CH2F (I) = [R1 = (substituted) Ph, phenylalkyl, pyridyl, etc.; R2 = H, alkyl haloalkyl, alkanoylalkyl, etc.; or R1R2 = carbazole, (substituted) phenothiazine, etc.; when R1 is substituted Ph, R2 is other than 2-fluoroethyl], useful as insecticides and microbicides [sic], were prepared. A mixt. of PhNH2 and BrCH2CH2F was heated at 60.degree. for 19 h to give N-(2-fluoroethyl)aniline. A soln. contg. I (R1 = Ph, R2 = PhCH2CO) (conc. 500 ppm) gave 75% control of Pseudoperonospora cubensis. We enter the following findings in light of material information in the 2002 ACS CAPLUS publication of CA 111:153338 (hereafter Hayase): (1) Hayase describes insecticidal and microbiocidal N-(2-fluoroethyl-), N-aryl- or N-heterocyclic-amines. The N-(2-fluoroethyl-) substituent appears to be necessary for the amines to exhibit insecticidal and/or microbiocidal activity. (2) Hayase does not teach that N-aryl- or N-heterocyclic- amines with N-fluoroalkyl-substituents other than the 12Page: Previous 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
