3.5 Relationship under Patent law Section 37(v) Section 37(v) of Patent Law is a provision left to Cabinet Order. Specifically, it recognizes unity of application for related inventions satisfying the provisions of Patent Law section 37(iii) or (iv) in relation to other related inventions, claimed in the Scope of Claims, which in turn satisfy the provisions of Patent Law section 37(i) or (ii) in relation to a specified invention. (Section 2 of Enforcement Orders for Patent Law) A hypothetical example is used below to describe the relationships prescribed under Patent Law Section 37(v): [Claims] 1. Substance A (The specified invention) Decision on Unity of Application 2. Process B to produce substance A 3. Ultraviolet absorbing substance C comprising substance A 4. Substance A' 5. Process B' to produce substance A' 6. Ultraviolet absorbing substance C' comprising substance A' 7. Substance A With regard to the specified invention, the related invention (Claim 4), corresponds to the relationship in Patent Law Section 37(ii), the related invention (Claims 5 and 6) corresponds to the relationship prescribed under Paten Law Section 37(iii). Consequently, the related inventions of (Claim 5) and (Claim 6) satisfy the relationship prescribed under Patent Law Section 37(v). 120
[Example 73] [Title of the Invention] 2, 2-dimethylpropane carboxylic acid ester and intermediary alcohol compounds [Claims] 1. Formula: a carboxylic acid ester represented as: (I) 2. Formula: an alcoholic compound represented as: (II) 3. A process for the preparation of alcoholic compound (Claim 2) using an acetate compound represented as: (III) in which solvolysis in the presence of a catalytic amount of base in methyl or ethyl alcohol is undergone. [Excerpt from Detail Description of the Invention] This invention concerns a process of production of intermediary products necessary for synthesis of a compound with effective insecticide activity of formula (I), 2,2-dimethylcyclopropane carboxylic acid ester. The compound of formula (I) is easily prepared by reaction with the alcoholic compound in formula (II) and the publicly known 2,2-dimethylcyclopropane carboxylic acid ester or its derivative. [Explanation] (1) Because the principal use of the compound in the related invention (Claim 2) can be accepted as a starting material (intermediary product) of the specified invention (Claim 1), applying the technical field of the compound of the related invention to that of the specified invention is quite appropriate. The two technical fields, therefore, have technically direct relationship and the industrial fields of application of the two inventions are the same. Furthermore, both compounds have a common, new skeletal structure, and the final product of formula (I) is direct derivative of the intermediary of formula (II). Therefore, the two compounds have a technically close relationship each other and the substantial parts of matters in the claim of the two inventions are the same. 121
