# Hoechst Corporation disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities
(See Item 2 (a) - (c), (f)).


<PAGE>                                                                4
     This Amendment to the Statement on Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D")
with respect to the Common Stock of ImmuLogic Pharmaceutical Corporation
(the "Issuer"), of Hoechst Marion Roussel, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("HMRI", formerly Marion Merrell Dow Inc. ("MMD")), and Hoechst
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Parent"), is filed to report a change
in the form of Parent's possible deemed beneficial ownership of the
Issuer's securities resulting from the merger on July 18, 1995, of H Pharma
Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and formerly a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Parent ("Acquisition"), with and into MMD, as a result of
which Acquisition ceased to exist as a separate entity, MMD became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and MMD changed its name to Hoechst
Marion Roussel, Inc.  HMRI is the owner of the securities to which this
Statement relates.

     This Statement on Schedule 13D is hereby amended by substituting
"Hoechst Marion Roussel, Inc." for "Marion Merrell Dow Inc." and "HMRI" for
"MMD" wherever such terms appear, unless the context requires otherwise.

ITEM 2.   IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.
-------   ------------------------

     Item 2 of this Schedule 13D is amended to read as follows:

     (a) - (c), (f)  This Schedule is filed on behalf of Hoechst Marion
Roussel, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("HMRI"), with a principal place of
business and principal office located at 9300 Ward Parkway, Kansas City,
Missouri 64114-0480.  The principal business of HMRI is the discovery,
development, manufacturing, marketing, and sale of pharmaceutical compounds
for the treatment of human diseases.  Information as to the executive
officers and directors of HMRI is set forth in Exhibit 99.D hereto.

     This Schedule also is filed on behalf of Hoechst Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("Parent") and wholly owned subsidiary of Hoechst
Aktiengesellschaft, a German corporation ("Hoechst AG").  Parent is a
holding company for most of the U.S. operations of Hoechst AG, a
multinational pharmaceutical and chemical company headquartered in
Frankfurt, Germany.  The principal place of business and principal office
of Parent is Route 202-206, Somerville, New Jersey 08876-1258.  Information
as to the executive officers and directors of Parent is set forth in
Exhibit 99.E hereto.

     Parent beneficially owns 100.0% of the outstanding common stock of
HMRI.  Parent is filing this Schedule with respect to its possible deemed
indirect ownership of HMRI's holdings of the Shares; however, Parent
disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities.  

     (d) - (e)  During the last five years, neither HMRI, Parent, nor to
their knowledge any of the persons listed in Exhibits 99.D and 99.E hereto,
has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations
and similar misdemeanors).  During the last five years, neither HMRI,
Parent, nor to their knowledge any of the persons listed in Exhibits 99.D
and 99.E hereto, has been a party to any civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which any of
them was or is subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining
future violation of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to
such laws.

ITEM 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
-------   -------------------------------------

     Paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of Item 5 of this Schedule 13D are
amended to read as follows:

     (a)  HMRI beneficially owns 1,000,000 shares of the Issuer's Common
Stock and an option to purchase an additional 250,000 shares, for aggregate
beneficial ownership of 1,250,000 shares representing 6.13 percent of the
Issuer's Common Stock outstanding at March 21, 1995, giving effect to the
issuance of the Shares and the Option Shares.  Neither Parent nor any
executive officer or director of HMRI or Parent beneficially owns any of
the Shares other than through their beneficial ownership of HMRI stock or
stock of Hoechst AG.  Parent does not beneficially own any other shares of
Common Stock except through its beneficial ownership of HMRI stock.  All
executive officers and directors of HMRI and Parent beneficially own less
than 1.0%, in the aggregate, of the outstanding common stock of HMRI.

     (b)  HMRI has sole power to vote and sole power to dispose of the
Shares.  Neither Parent nor any executive officer or director of either
HMRI or Parent has any power to vote or to direct the vote, or to dispose
or to direct the disposition of, the Shares except to the extent that
Parent or any such executive officer or director may be deemed to have any
such power by reason of such person's relationship to or position with HMRI
or Parent.

     (c)  None.  On July 18, 1995, Acquisition merged with and into HMRI,
as a result of which HMRI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.
