Abstract:
Imidazolyl-(2)-thioalkanoic acid ester of the formula I
in which R stands for phenyl, phen-(C1-C3)alkyl, R1 stands for hydrogen or (C1-C3)-alkyl and R2 and R3 each stands for (C1-C3)-alkyl, AND THE PHYSIOLOGICALLY ACCEPTABLE ACID ADDITION SALTS THEREOF, PROCESS FOR PREPARING THEM AND PHARMACEUTICAL PREPARATIONS CONTAINING THEM AS ACTIVE SUBSTANCE.
IN WHICH R1 and R2 each stands for a hydrogen atom or together they stand for the group -CH CH-CH CH- which may carry one or more lower alkyl, halogeno-alkyl or alkoxy groups, halogen atoms or NO2-groups, and R3 and R4, independently of one another, each stands for a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl, halogeno-alkyl, alkoxy or halogeno-alkoxy group, a halogen atom or NO2 or together they stand as a -CH CH-CH CH- group with the benzene nucleus for the naphthyl group, AND PHYSIOLOGICALLY ACCEPTABLE ACID ADDITION SALTS THEREOF, PROCESS FOR PREPARING THEM AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING THEM AS ACTIVE SUBSTANCE.
Abstract:
Tertiary hydroxyalkylxanthines having the general formula (I), characterized by the fact that at least one of the residues R1 and R3 represents a tertiary hydroxyalkyl group of formula (Ia) in which R4 represents an alkyl group having up to 3 carbon atoms and n a whole number from 2 to 5; the other residue which may remain R1 or R3 is a hydrogen atom or an aliphatic hydrocarbon residue R5 having up to 6 carbon atoms, in which the carbon chain may be separated by a maximum of two oxygen atoms or be substituted by an oxo group or two hydroxy groups at the most, and R2 represents an alkyl group with 1 to 4 carbon atoms. Also described is a process for manufacturing these compounds, which are suitable for the manufacture of medicines, in particular for use in the prevention and/or treatment of peripheral and/or cerebral irrigation disorders.
Abstract:
Combination preparations which contain cyclosporin A and a xanthine derivative or FK506 and a xanthine derivative or rapamycin and a xanthine derivative are suitable for use in organ transplantation, cancer, viral diseases or in autoimmune disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, pemphigus, atopic dermatitis, myositis, multiple sclerosis, nephrotic syndrome (in particular glomerulonephritis), ulcerative colitis or juvenile diabetes.
Abstract:
The use of at least one theophylline 1-ether analogue of formula (I) or its diastereoisomer or salt is claimed for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of shock states. R1 = 1-5C alkyl or (1-2C)alkoxy-(1-3C) alkyl; or phenyl or phenyl-(1-2C)alkyl (both optionally mono- or dihalo-substituted in the ring); A = 1-4C alkylene; R2 = 1-5C alkyl, 3-6C cycloalkyl, 4-8C cycloalkyl, phenyl or phenyl-(1-2C)alkyl. Compounds (I) and their stereoisomers and salts are new, with the exception of compounds in which (a) R2 = n-propyl, R1= Me or Et and A = CH2CH2 or (b) R2 = n-propyl, R1 = Me and A = (CH2)3. Certain intermediates in the preparation of (I) are also new.
Abstract:
Xanthines of the formula Iare useful in producing a superadditive increase in immunosuppressive action when combined with immunosuppressive compounds such as CysA or FK506.
