C12P 19/62 - Préparation d'O-glucosides, p. ex. glucosides avec un atome d'oxygène du radical saccharide lié directement à un hétérocycle autre que saccharide ou à un système cyclique condensé contenant un hétérocycle autre que saccharide, p. ex. coumermycine, novobiocine l'hétérocycle comportant au moins huit chaînons et uniquement l'oxygène comme hétéro-atome du cycle, p. ex. érythromycine, spiramycine, nystatine
C12P 17/18 - Préparation de composés hétérocycliques comportant O, N, S, Se ou Te comme uniques hétéro-atomes du cycle contenant plusieurs hétérocycles condensés entre eux ou condensés avec un système carbocyclique commun, p. ex. rifamycine
