A pharmaceutical composition comprising: (a) a tumor necrosis factor inhibitor; (b) a compound selected from the group consisting of reverse transcriptase inhibitors, protease inhibitor, a gene inhibitor, myristoylation inhibitors, cell-virus binding inhibitors, LTR promoter site inhibitors, ribosome inactivators, platelet aggregation inhibitors and prophylactic and therapeutic HIV vaccines, and (c) a pharmaceutical inert nontoxic carrier are described.

Use of tumor factor inhibitors together with antiviral agents and

Novel choline salts of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory carboxylic acids and anti-lipidemic carboxylic acids are described. Additionally, blends of choline salts with the above carboxylic acids are also described. The new salts and compositions offer new therapeutic advantages.

Salts of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory carboxylic acids and

Novel salts of 1-adamantamine are formed by reacting non-steroidal anti-inflammatory carboxylic acids with 1-adamantamine. Formulations of 1-adamantamine hydrochloride and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory carboxylic acids are also described.

Salts of 1-adamantamine and formulations thereof

A method of preparing 2,2',4,4',6,6'-hexanitrostilbene from 2,4,6-trinitrnzyl chloride and hydroxyl ions using an organic solvent-water two phase system and a phase transfer catalyst.

Method for the production of hexanitrostilbene

Novel bis(2-fluoro-2,2-dinitroethyl)thionocarbonate, ##STR1## is prepared from two moles of 2-fluoro-2,2-dinitroethanol and two equivats of a strong hydroxyl ion source such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide in water and one mole of thiophosgene in an organic solvent which may be methylene chloride, chloroform, or 1,2-dichloroethane. A phase transfer catalyst which may be benzyltriethylammonium chloride, tetrabutylammonium chloride, didodecyldimethylammonium bromide, or cetyltrimethylammonium chloride is used to transfer 2-fluoro-2,2-dinitroethoxy ions formed in the water phase to the organic solvent phase where they react with the thiophosgene to form the bis(2-fluoro-2,2-dinitroethyl)thionocarbonate. Bis(2-fluoro-2,2-dinitroethyl)thionocarbonate is useful as an energetic explosive.

Bis(2-fluoro-2,2-dinitroethyl)thionocarbonate and a method of preparation

A polymeric membrane composed of a homogenous mixture of (1) a hydrophilic esin which is (a) partially acetylated cellulose in which from about 50 to less than 100 percent of the hydroxyl groups are acetylated, (b) polyvinyl acetate, (c) hexadimethrine bromide, or mixtures thereof, and (2) a polyphenylquinoxaline of the formula ##STR1## WHEREIN X IS A DIRECT BOND, ##STR2## and Ar is m-phenylene, p-phenylene, or ##STR3## wherein z is a direct bond, ##STR4## and wherein n is a value such that the polyphenylquinoxaline has an inherent viscosity of from about 0.5 to about 2.5 dl./g as a 0.5 g in 100 ml solution in 98 percent sulfuric acid at about 30.degree. C. These polymeric membranes are used as separators in alkaline cells such as silver-zinc cells.
