2007-12-25Stable cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbenes as ligands for transition metal catalysts
University of California
Expired - LifetimeExpired by reaching the end of its statutory term, not by an unpaid fee. The invention is now in the public domain -- free to practise, with no exclusive patent right left to license.InstitutionThe patent's current assignee of record matches the marketing institution (University of California).ExpiredThe expected expiration date (2026-06-07) has passed, so little or no exclusive patent term is likely to remain.

The Owner column flags when a patent's current assignee of record is not the marketing institution (a "Third party" or "Assigned away" tag means you may not be able to license it from that university). The Expiry column reads how much exclusive patent term remains: an "Expiring soon" or "Expired" tag means little or no exclusivity is left, whatever the listing says. Hover any tag for detail; click any column header to sort.
