Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
135 words
A method of covalently binding (a) a biologically active organic substance that contains at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of primary and secondary amino groups, thiol groups, and aromatic hydroxy groups directly to a (b) polymeric substance (PM) containing at least one hydroxy group, comprising the steps of: (1) first forming a reactive derivative PM-O-SO 2 -R by reacting (i) an organic sulfonyl halogenide of the formula Hal-SO 2 -R, with (ii) a polymeric substance (PM) containing at least one hydroxy group, wherein R is an organic group and Hal is halogen, and wherein said at least one reacting hydroxy group is bonded to carbon atoms in the polymeric substance (PM), and then (2) reacting said reactive derivative PM-O-SO 2 -R directly with the biologically organic substance as set forth in (a).
Claim 2
Independent Claim
135 words
A method of covalently binding (a) a biologically active organic substance that contains at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of primary and secondary amino groups, thiol groups, and aromatic hydroxy groups directly to a (b) polymeric substance (PM) containing at least one hydroxy group, comprising the steps of: (1) first forming a reactive derivative PM-O-SO 2 -R by reacting (i) an organic sulfonyl halogenide of the formula Hal-SO 2 -R, with (ii) a polymeric substance (PM) containing at least one hydroxy group, wherein R is an organic group and Hal is halogen, and wherein said at least one reacting hydroxy group is bonded to carbon atoms in the polymeric substance (PM), and then (2) reacting said reactive derivative PM-O-SO 2 -R directly with the biologically organic substance as set forth in (a).
