The following Examples are given for the purpose of illustrating the present invention:
Example 1.
2-(N-Pyrrolidino)-3-isobutoxy-N-phenyl-N-(2-phenyl-ethyl-propylamine oxalate.
6.3 g. N-phenyl-N-(2-phenylethyl)-amine, together with 7.7 g. 2-chloro-1-isobutoxy-3-(N-pyrrolidino)-propane are dissolved in 50 ml. anhydrous toluene. 5.8 g. Sodium hydride (50% oily suspension) are added thereto and the mixture is heated under reflux for 2 hours. It is then cooled, the mixture is poured on to water and the organic phase is separated off. The aqueous phase is extracted again with toluene. The combined organic phases are washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and evaporated. The residue is purified by chromatography on a silica gel column (elution agent methylene chloride/2% methanol).
The appropriate column fractions are evaporated. The residue is dissolved in ethyl acetate and the solution mixed with a solution of oxalic acid in ethyl acetate. The precipitate is filtered off and again recrystallised from ethyl acetate. There are obtained 2.1 g. 2-(N-pyrrolidino)-3-isobutoxy-N-phenyl-N-(2-phenylethyl)-propylamine oxalate; m.p. 95.degree.-96.degree. C.
The halo compounds of general formula (II) required as starting materials are prepared analogously to 2-chloro-1-allyloxy-3-N-pyrrolidinopropane, the preparation of which is described in the following by way of example:
A mixture of 50 g. allyl alcohol, 160 ml. concentrated aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, 230 g. epichlorohydrin and 2 g. tetrabutylammonium bromide is stirred for 3 hours at 45.degree. C. The mixture is then diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase is washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and evaporated. The residue is distilled in a vacuum to give 67 g. 3-allyloxy-1,2-epoxypropane; b.p. 78.degree. C./56 mm.Hg. This is dissolved in 80 ml. ethanol and mixed dropwise, while stirring, with a solution of 86 ml. pyrrolidine in 80 ml. ethanol. After completion of the addition, stirring is continued for 1 hour at 70.degree. C., the mixture is evaporated and the residue is distilled in a vacuum to give 70 g. 2-hydroxy-1-allyloxy-3-N-pyrrolidinopropane; b.p. 75.degree. C./10.sup.-2 mm Hg.
60 g. 2-Hydroxy-1-allyloxy-3-N-pyrrolidinopropane are dissolved in 120 ml. dichloroethane and the solution mixed dropwise, while stirring, with 26 ml. thionyl chloride. After completion of the addition, stirring is continued for 2 hours at 70.degree. C., the mixture is cooled, mixed with water, the pH value is adjusted with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution to 10 and the organic phase is separated off. This is dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and evaporated. The residue is purified by column chromatography to give 44 g. 2-chloro-1-allyloxy-3-N-pyrrolidinopropane as an oily product.

In Vitro Test Results
Rat aorta segments were suspended in an organ bath and connected to a force pickup, and stretched to 15 mN. The KrebsHenseleit solution in the organ bath had the following composition:
NaCl=118 mM; KCl=4.7 mM; MgSO.sub.4 =1.2 mM; CaCl.sub.2 =2.5 mM; KH.sub.2 PO.sub.4 =1.2 mM; NaHCO.sub.3 =25 mM; glucose -11 mM.
The aorta segments were left in the bath for 45 minutes to reach equilibrium, and then a stock solution of KCl was added to the organ bath to increase the KCl concentration of the nutrient solution in the organ bath to 40 mM. After the aorta segments had been exposed for 30 minutes to the increased potassium concentration, the test substances were added at an identical concentration, (10.sup.-6 mol/liter) to the bath solution. The test substances produced a relaxation effect which varied with the different test substances, and is reported in Table 1 below as a percent of the pre-contraction, determined 25 minutes after the test substance addition to the bath solution. The percent relaxation reported is a measure of the Ca++ antagonistic effect of the respective test substances. The higher the percent relaxation value reported in the right-hand column of Table 1, the more active the substance.
