Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 46 words
A compound of the tautomeric formulae ##STR7## wherein X is halogen; and one of Y and Z is hydrogen, and the other is hydroxy; with the proviso that when Y is hydroxy and Z is hydrogen, X is chlorine or bromine; a salt of these compounds.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 46 words
A compound of the tautomeric formulae ##STR7## wherein X is halogen; and one of Y and Z is hydrogen, and the other is hydroxy; with the proviso that when Y is hydroxy and Z is hydrogen, X is chlorine or bromine; a salt of these compounds.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 15 words
The compound of claim 1 wherein said compound is 6-chloro-6-deoxy-L-ascorbic acid or a salt thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 15 words
The compound of claim 1 wherein said compound is 6-bromo-6-deoxy-L-ascorbic acid or a salt thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 15 words
The compound of claim 1 wherein said compound is 6-deoxy-6-fluoro-L-ascorbic acid or a salt thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 15 words
The compound of claim 1 wherein said compound is 6-deoxy-6-iodo-L-ascorbic acid or a salt thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 61 words
Process for stabilizing oxidation-sensitive organic materials comprising incorporating in said material a stabilizing amount of a compound of the tautomeric formula: ##STR8## wherein X is halogen; and one of Y and Z is hydrogen and the other is hydroxy; with the proviso that when Y is hydroxy and Z is hydrogen, X is chlorine or bromine; or with a salt thereof.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 61 words
Process for stabilizing oxidation-sensitive organic materials comprising incorporating in said material a stabilizing amount of a compound of the tautomeric formula: ##STR8## wherein X is halogen; and one of Y and Z is hydrogen and the other is hydroxy; with the proviso that when Y is hydroxy and Z is hydrogen, X is chlorine or bromine; or with a salt thereof.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 27 words
The process of claim 6 wherein said compound is incorporated in an amount of from 0.001 wt. to 0.1 wt.% based upon the weight of said material.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 59 words
A mixture comprising a stabilizing amount of a oxidation-sensitive organic material and a compound of the tautomeric formulae ##STR9## wherein X is halogen; and one of Y and Z is hydrogen atom and the other is hydroxy; with the proviso that when Y is hydroxy and Z is hydrogen, X is chlorine or bromine, or with a salt thereof.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 59 words
A mixture comprising a stabilizing amount of a oxidation-sensitive organic material and a compound of the tautomeric formulae ##STR9## wherein X is halogen; and one of Y and Z is hydrogen atom and the other is hydroxy; with the proviso that when Y is hydroxy and Z is hydrogen, X is chlorine or bromine, or with a salt thereof.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 25 words
The mixture of claim 8 wherein said compound is present in an amount of from 0.001 to 0.1 wt. of the material to be stabilized.
