Merbst: Nice to hear from you.
In my understanding Oxycodeinone as described in
Patent DE411530
is just plain 14- Hydroxycodeinone. This patent doesn`t say anything about hydrogenation.
So only pos. 6 and pos. 14 are oxidized. But nothing happen to pos. 7 and pos. 8 .
In
Patent DE408870
only pos. 6 is oxidized to have codeinone.
The first part of the patent tells something about Dr. Knorr who experimented before (1903) with
codeine -> codeinone however with terrible yields.
If you wish I can translate it for you.
I can also translate the first part of the
Patent DE411530
. Because the procedure is allready translated
by Lone Ranger as you know.
Working as a team sounds good.
You know I´m not a 10 fingers typer.
Anyway I can translate whatever you want,
if you give me enough time and publish it at the Hive
so that every bee has a use from it.
With
Patent DE286431
the inventor tries to explain
that a new Thebain( C19H21NO3) derivat with the
formula C18H19NO4 was built with H2O2 in an acid solution.
The name of it though isn`t stated anywhere.
Only Thebaineoxyd is mentioned. But this is related to
a previous research (1906 and 1910)when Theabaine was oxidized with H2O2
without the present of an acid.
