Retinoids and related compounds. X. Synthesis of geometrical isomers of (.+-.)-2- and (.+-.)-3-Hydroxyretinals and identification of the cromophore of the fly visual pigment.
The geometrical isomers of (±)-3-hydroxyretinals were synthesized and characterized. Subsequently, simultaneous separation of eight isomers of 2- and 3-hydroxyretinals by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was accomplished and, in addition, complete separation of eight syn-anti isomers of 3-hydroxyretinaloximes by HPLC was achieved. Under these analytical conditions, the chromophore of the fly (Drosphila melanogaster) visual pigment was identified as 11-cis-3-hydroxyretinal (10).

Disclosed herein are drug delivery implants configured to be implanted into the eye of a subject and serve as intraocular drug depots. The implants reside in an intraocular target site until activation, at which time the implants release the drug (or drugs) housed within the implant in a controlled release fashion.
