2,4-disubstituted derivatives of tetrahydrofuran useful for the treatment of PAF mediated illnesses

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to new 2,4-disubstituted derivatives of tetrahydrofuran with a potent antagonist activity of the platelet activating factor (PAF), together with a process for their preparation. The invention also applies to the pharmaceutical preparations which contain these compounds, and their use in the treatment of diseases in which PAF is involved, such as allergic and bronchial asthma, platelet aggregation disorders, septic shock, hypertension, etc.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
Platelet activating factor (PAF), or (1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glyceryl-3-phosphorylcholine), also called acetyl glyceryl ether phosphorylcholine (AGEPC) or PAF-acether is a natural phospholipid synthesized by different cells (basophiles, macrophages, neutrophiles, platelets) and tissues (heart, lung and kidney) of the organism. (Roubin et al. in "Lymphokines" Ed. E. Pick, Acad. Press. New York, p. 249, 1983; Vargaftig et al., Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci., 1981, 370, 119; Pinckard et al., Int. Arch. Allergy Appl. Immun., 1981, 66, 127.
PAF was described for the first time as a potent platelet aggregating agent (Benveniste et al., J. Exp. Med., 1972, 136) and later it was demonstrated that it had other biological activities in vivo such as peripheral vasodilatation, increase of the vascular permeability, induction of bronchoconstriction and hyperreactivity of the respiratory tract (Mazzoni et al., Proc. Physiol. Soc. Univ. Coll. Meet., March 1985). PAF also produces immediate hypotension followed by pulmonary and renal hypertension in rats (Blank et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 1979, 90, 1194), guinea pigs (Feuerstein, et al., Circul. Shock, 1984, 13, 255), rabbits (Muirhead et al., Hypertension, 1981, 3, 107) and dogs (Otsuka et al., J. Exp. Med., 1972, 136, 1356), and it has been rated as the most potent ulcerogenic agent described until now.
Consequently, PAF is a mediator that is implicated in a large set of pathological processes such as asthma, septic shock, transplant rejection, thrombosis, ulceration, inflammation and renal diseases.
Even though its mechanism of action is still not known with precision, some studies show that the biological activities of PAF involve the existence of a specific receptor. Recently, it has been possible the isolation of one of these receptors from human platelets and it has been identified as a protein with a molecular weight of 160.000 daltons (Nishihira et al., Tohoku J. Exp. Med., 1985, 147, 145). On the other hand, the capacity to inhibit the binding of .sup.3 H-PAF to their receptors is well correlated with the amount of PAF needed to provoke the in vitro and in vivo observed effects. These facts indicate that the compounds that act as specific antagonists of PAF could result of interest for the treatment of all those pathological processes related directly or indirectly with PAF.
Several PAF analogues have been examined with the pourpose to find compounds with the above mentioned antagonist activity and some of them are known as PAF antagonist, for example, the compounds described in patent Nos. EP 147768, EP 146258, EP 138559, EP 157609, JP 57/165394, JP 58/133116, JP 58/35116, EP 0209239, EP 0146258, WO 86/01507, EP 0210804, EP 0178261 among others.
The new compounds of the present invention, not only are structurally different from any of the compounds described in the above mentioned prior art, but also --and surprisingly-- show a remarkable PAF antagonist activity. In fact, never before 2,4-disubstituted derivatives of tetrahydrofuran have been used as PAF antagonist substances.

The title compounds I have at least two asymmetric carbons that can produce stereoisomers. The present invention includes these stereoisomers as well as their mixtures.
Although the present invention includes all the above mentioned compounds, the following compounds are specially preferred:

The specific compounds whose formulas are represented below, together with the number corresponding to the example in which their preparation is described, are still more preferred. ##STR3##
The compounds of the present invention are in vitro inhibitors of the platelet aggregation induced by PAF. On the other hand, these compounds have the capacity to revert the hypotension induced by PAF in anesthetized rats. These facts make them useful as PAF antagonists in the treatment of the diseases in which this substance is involved.
As already stated, the present invention includes not only the tetrahydrofuran derivatives having the general formula I with the --CH.sub.2 XR.sub.1 group in position 2 and the --CH.sub.2 OR.sub.2 group in position 4, but also the compounds having --CH.sub.2 OR.sub.2 in position 2 and --CH.sub.2 XR.sub.1 in position 4. The pharmacologic tests have demonstrated that, given two --R.sub.1 and --R.sub.2 groups, the compounds belonging to both families show very similar pharmacologic activities.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a process for the preparation of the title compounds I. Thus, for the case in which X is an oxygen atom, Scheme I shows the synthetic steps for the preparation of the intermediate alcohols IIa and IIb.
In step A compound V, easily obtained starting with diethyl malonate and allyl bromide as described in the literature (JACS 1933, 55, 4697), is reacted with a reducing agent, such as lithium aluminium hydride, to give the diol III. The reaction is carried out in the presence of a solvent, that could be any solvent as long as does not interact with the reagents; such as for example tetrahydrofuran and diethyl ether. The reaction can be done in a wide range of temperature and time conditions. ##STR4## We have found that it is convenient to run the reaction between 0.degree. C. and the boiling temperature of the solvent, for a period of time between 3 and 24 h. Once the reaction is completed, compound III can be separated and purified by conventional techniques, such as flash-chromatograhy or distillation.
In step B one of the two hydroxy groups present in the diol III is functionalized to give compound IV of compound VI. Similarly, the hydroxy group of compound VII is functionalized to give compound VIII.
When compound IV (R.sub.1 =alkyl group) is desired, compound III is treated with an amount slightly larger than 1 equivalent of a strong base, such as 1.5 equivalents of sodium hydride, in a solvent compatible with the reagents, such as ether, tetrahydrofuran or dimethylformamide and the intermediate alcoxide is treated in situ with a slight excess of an alkylating reagent, such as an alkyl halide or an alkyl- or arylsulfonate, for example with 1.1 equivalents of n-alkyl bromide. The reaction is done in a wide range of temperatures without being a specific temperature particularly critical. We have found that it is convenient to run the reaction at a temperature ranging from 60.degree. to 100.degree. C. The time needed for the completion of the reaction is in function of the temperature and the nature of the reagents, but a period of time ranging between 3 and 24 h is generally enough. Once the reaction is completed, the desired compound can be isolated by conventional methods. The pure product is obtained by flash-chromatography purification.
If compound IV (R.sub.1 =alkylaminocarbonyl) is desired, the diol III is reacted with an equivalent of the corresponding alkyl isocyanate. The reaction is done in the presence of a nitrogen-containing base, which can be used as solvent, if desired. We have found that pyridine is an excellent solvent for this reaction. The reaction can be done in a wide range of temperatures and the temperature of choice is not critical. We have found that the reaction can be conveniently done between 25.degree. C. and the boiling temperature of pyridine, but more preferably between 50.degree. and 70.degree. C. The time required for the reaction depends on the temperature, but a period of time ranging from 30 min. to 6 h is generally preferred. The desired product is isolated following conventional techniques. The pure product can be obtained by flash-chromatography purification of the reaction crude.
Finally, if the compound to be obtained in step B is compound VI, wherein P is a protective group of the hydroxyl function, the reaction to be done is that of diol III with a protective reagent. Although P can be any protective group of the alcohol function, such as benzyl, benzoyl, trialkylsilyl, tetrahydropiranyl, etc., we have found that the trityl (triphenylmethyl) group is very useful for this reaction in terms of reaction conditions and cost of the reagent used (trityl chloride). The reaction is done in a solvent that does not interfere with the reagents, such as for example dichloromethane, chloroform, ether, tetrahydrofuran, etc., and in the presence of a base to neutralize the acid that is formed, such as pyridine and triethylamine. If desired, the reaction can be accelerated by the addition of a catalytic amount of 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine. The temperature of the reaction can be adjusted to different values depending on the protective group. When trityl chloride is used, we have found that the temperature of the reaction can range from 0.degree. C. to the boiling temperature of the solvent, preferentially between 20.degree. to 30.degree. C. The reaction time depends on the temperature of choice, nevertheless, a period of time ranging between 2 and 12 h is generally enough. Once the reaction is completed, the desired compound can be isolated and purified by standard techniques, such as for example flash-chromatography.
The tetrahydrofuran ring is formed in step C. This step includes the reaction of a substrate like compound IV or VI with an epoxidating reagent, and the in situ cyclization to give the corresponding compound IIa or VII, respectively. As the epoxidating reagent of choice it is used m-chloroperbenzoic acid. The reaction is done in the presence of a solvent, preferentially a chlorinated hydrocarbon like dichloromethane or chloroform. The reaction can be carried out in a wide range of temperatures and times, although it can be conveniently done at room temperature for 6-48 h, depending on the substrate. We have found that in some occasions a mixture of the desired product and the intermediate epoxide is obtained. The reaction can be completed by treatment with a catalytic amount of an acid, such as perchloric or trifluoroacetic acid. The desired product can be isolated by conventional techniques. If desired, the product can be then purified by chromatography or recrystallization.
The alcohol VII can be converted into product VIII (R.sub.1 =alkyl or alkylaminocarbonyl), following a similar methodology to that used in step B for the preparation of compounds IV and VI.
Once compound VIII is obtained, step D implies the deprotection of the hydroxyl group to give compound IIb. The reagents needed to do this conversion are determined by the nature of the protecting group P. When P is a trityl group, the transformation to the compound IIb is done using an acid in the presence of an alcohol or water. Although any relatively strong organic or inorganic acid will perform the deprotection, we have found that the use of a sulfonic acid in the presence of methanol, ethanol, tetrahydrofuran, or a mixture of them is satisfactory. The reaction can be done in a wide range of temperatures and the temperature of choice is not particularly critical. In general, it is convenient to do the reaction between 0.degree. C. and the boiling temperature of the solvent, preferentially around 25.degree. C. The reaction time depends on the temperature and the concentration of the acid used. Normally, a period of time ranging between 3 and 24 h is enough. Once the reaction is finished, the isolation of the product is done following standard work-up. If desired, the reaction crude can be purified by flash chromatography or recrystallization.
In order to simplify the exposition, only the synthesis of the derivatives of the alcohol IIa has been presented in schemes II, III and IV. The synthesis of the derivatives of the alcohol IIb proceeds in a similar way and it has not been included in the schemes.
Scheme II shows the synthesis of the compounds of subfamilies Ia and Ib, that is to say, compounds I in which Y is --C(.dbd.O)NR.sub.4 --, R.sub.4 being different from H, or equal to H, respectively. As it can be seen in the scheme, in step E the alcohol IIa is reacted with compound X, a phosgene-like compound (that is to say, a doubly activated carbonyl group). ##STR5## In compound X, the groups X and Z are leaving groups and can be equal (Cl, imidazole, etc.) or different from each other. Although in principle any previously described phosgene equivalent compound can be used, we have found that phenyl chlorocarbonate (X, X.dbd.Cl, Z.dbd.OPh) is an excellent reagent for this reaction, because of its convenient handling and low market cost. The reaction is done in the presence of a solvent and a base as acid-scavenger. There is not a particular restriction about the solvent utilized, as long as it does not interfere with the reaction and it is capable to dissolve all the reagents. As suitable solvents it can be mentioned the halogenated hydrocarbons, particularly dichloromethane and chloroform, ethers such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, and aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene or toluene. Furthermore, there is not any particular restriction in relation to the base, as long as it does not affect other parts of the molecule. It is convenient to use an amine, such as triethylamine or pyridine. The reaction can be done in a wide range of temperatures, Conveniently, we carry out the reaction between 0.degree. and 100.degree. C., preferably between 0.degree. and 50.degree. C. The reaction time depends on the nature of the starting materials, the base used, and the temperature of the reaction. A period of time between 30 min. and 24 h is generally satisfactory. The reaction is clean and normally it is not necessary to purify the resulting product. Nevertheless, if desired, product XI can be purified by flash chromatography.
In step F, compound XI (obtained in step E) is transformed to carbamate XII, using a compound of formula .sub.2 NH--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --Q', wherein n is an integer from 0 to 10, and Q' is a heterocyclic group that contains a non-quaternary nitrogen atom and is linked to the alkylene chain by a ring carbon, or Q' is a OP group wherein P is a protective group of the hydroxyl function. The reaction is performed in the presence of a solvent, at a temperature and for a period of time similar to those described for step E. The reaction crude is washed, in that case, with an alkaline aqueous solution to remove the phenol produced during the reaction. The product obtained (XII) can be purified by standard techniques, such as flash chromatography.
When Q'=OP, the conversion of compound XII into compound I, wherein R.sub.2 is a group of formula --Y--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --Q'".sup.(+) A.sup.(-), and Y is --CONR.sub.4 --, is done in steps L, M and J, which will be described in the discussion of scheme IV.
When Q' is an heterocycle that contains a non-quaternary nitrogen atom and is linked to the alkylene chain by a carbon of the ring, the conversion of compound XII into compound Ia can be done according to steps G and H explained below.
Step G includes the derivatization of the carbamic nitrogen of compound XII to give compound XIII. The reaction involves the use of a reagent of formula R.sub.4 -X where R.sub.4 and X have the previously described meaning. When R.sub.4 is an acyl group a compound of formula (R.sub.4).sub.2 O can also be used. The reaction can be done in two ways: directly using compound XII, or preparing first an alkaline salt of this compound. When R.sub.4 is an acyl or alcoxycarbonyl group, of the two methods can be used; while, when R.sub.4 is an alkyl group, it is necessary to use the second method. When compound XII is used directly, the reaction is performed in the presence of a solvent, whose nature is not critical as long as it is compatible to the reagents used. We have found that halogenated solvents, such as dichloromethane or chloroform, are efficient in this reaction. On the other hand, the reaction can be done in the presence of an amine as acid-scavenger, such as triethylamine. The use of the amine is optional because the heterocycle Q' already contains a basic nitrogen. The reaction can be done in a wide range of temperatures, between 0.degree. C. and the boiling temperature of the solvent used, but it is preferred a temperature about room temperature. The reaction time depends on the temperature and the nature of the reagents used, nevertheless a period of time ranging between 2 and 72 h is generally enough. Once the reaction is finished, the desired product XIII, can be isolated and purified using conventional methods such as flash chromatography.
When an alkaline salt of compound XII is used, this salt is prepared in situ using a strong base, such as sodium hydride or butyl lithium. Compound R.sub.4 X is then added. The reaction is performed in a solvent that does not interfere with any of the reagents. As examples of the preferred solvents it can be mentioned ethers such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane; and aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene or toluene. The reaction can be done in a wide range of temperatures, nevertheless we have found that it is preferred to run the reaction at low temperatures for example -78.degree. C. and 0.degree. C., in order to obtain an acceptable yield. The reaction time depends on the temperature and the nature of the reagents. A period of time ranging between 5 min. and 24 h is generally enough. The desired product can be isolated and purified following conventional techniques.
Step H implies the transformation of a compound XIII or XII into a compound Ia or Ib, respectively, where Q".sup.(+) represents an heterocyclic group that contains a quaternary nitrogen in the ring, and that is linked to an alkylene chain by a carbon, and A.sup.- is a pharmaceutically acceptable anion. The reaction can be done employing the starting material and a reagent of formula R.sub.5 A wherein R.sub.5 is a lower alkyl group. The reaction can be performed in the absence of solvent in the case that R.sub.4 A is a non volatile liquid, or in the presence of a solvent when R.sub.5 A is solid or very volatile, but in any case an excess of this reagent is always used. It is preferred to use those solvents having a high polarity. As example of preferred solvents it can be mentioned acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide. The reaction can be done in a wide range of temperatures and a precise temperature is not particularly critical. We have found that it is convenient to do the reaction at a temperature ranging between room temperature and 120.degree. C. The reaction time depends on the nature of reagent R.sub.5 A and the temperature used, but a period of time ranging from 1 to 72 h is generally enough. The desired product is isolated by concentration of the reaction crude or by precipitation with a less polar solvent. The resulting compound is generally pure enough. In the case that it is not pure, it can be purified by conventional techniques such as flash chromatography or recrystallization.
Compounds having formula Ia or Ib are salts wherein the anion A.sup.- comes from the reagent R.sub.5 A. If desired, this anion can be interchanged using ion exchange resins. ##STR6##
Scheme III shows the synthetic steps that lead to the compounds of the subfamily Ic, that is to say, compounds I in which --Y-- is --C(.dbd.O)-- and Q is an heterocyclic group that is linked to an alkylene chain directly by the quaternary nitrogen of the ring; in this case Q is represented by Q'".sup.(+).
Step I involves the reaction of IIa with a compound of formula Cl--C(.dbd.O)--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --A to give compound XVI, wherein A is a leaving group such as an halogen atom or an alkyl or arylsulfonate group. The temperature conditions and the reaction time, as well as the isolation and purification methods, are similar to those described in step B.
In step J compound XVI is reacted with an heterocycle that contains at least a tertiary nitrogen atom in the ring, to give compound Ic wherein Q'".sup.(+) is an heterocyclic group linked to the alkylene chain by the quaternary nitrogen of the ring. The reaction can be done using the heterocycle as solvent or adding a cosolvent, preferably having a polar character such as acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide. The reaction is done in a wide range of temperatures. Generally it is convenient to perform the reaction at a temperature ranging between room temperature and 120.degree. C. preferentially between 50 and 90.degree. C. The reaction time depends on the heterocycle used and the temperature of the reaction, nevertheless a period of time ranging between 1 and 48 h is generally enough. The desired compounds can be isolated by evaporation of the volatile components and precipitation with a non polar solvent such as ether. If desired, the product can be purified by one or several recrystallizations.
Scheme IV shows the synthesis of the compounds of subfamily Id, that is to say the compounds of formula I in which Y is a covalent single bond and the heterocyclic group Q is linked to the alkylene chain directly by the quaternary nitrogen of the ring, in which case Q is represented by Q'".sup.(+). In the first step (step K) the alcohol IIa is transformed to the corresponding alcoxide and is reacted with a compound of formula A--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --OP, wherein A is a leaving group, such as halogen, or an alkyl or arylsulfonate group, and P is a protecting group of the hydroxyl function. The reaction includes two steps, the formation of the alcoxide and the in situ reaction with an alkylating agent. For the formation of the alcoxide a strong base like sodium hydride or butyl lithium can be used. In the second step an alkylating agent, generally dissolved in the same solvent used in the previously step, is added. This solvent can be in principle any polar solvent that does not interfere with the reaction. We have found that dimethylformamide is particularly useful. The reaction can be performed in a wide range of temperatures. We have found that is convenient to do it at a temperature ranging between 50.degree. and 120.degree. C. The time needed for the reaction can vary widely, nevertheless a period of time ranging between 4 and 30 h is generally enough. Once the reaction is finished, the desired product can be purified by flash chromatography.
Step L includes the deprotection of the hydroxyl group of compound XVIII. The reagents and the reaction conditions utilized depend on the nature of the group P used. P can be any of the protective groups commonly used for the protection of the hydroxyl function, such as benzyl, trityl, trialkylsilyl or tetrahydropiranyl. In the present invention we have used the tetrahydropiranyl group. ##STR7## Step L involves, thus, an acid hydrolysis or alcoholysis. The reaction is carried out in a polar solvent, such as methanol for the alcoholysis, or a mixture of water and a cosolvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, for the hydrolysis. In both cases an acid is needed to catalyze the reaction. Such acid can be, in principle, any relatively strong acid, such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, camphorsulfonic or toluenesulfonic acid. The reaction can be done in a wide range of temperatures. Although the temperature of choice is not particularly critical, we have found that a temperature between 0.degree. and 50.degree. C. is convenient. The reaction time depends on the nature of the reagents, the temperature and the acid concentration, nevertheless a period of time ranging between 1 and 12 h is generally enough. Once the reaction is finished, the reaction mixture is neutralized and the desired product is isolated and purified using conventional techniques.
Step M involves the conversion of the hydroxyl group of compound XIX in a leaving group A. When A is an alkyl- or arylsulfonate group, compound XX is obtained by reacting compound XIX with the corresponding alkyl- or arylsulfonyl chloride in the presence of a base. The nature of the solvent and the base used, as well as the conditions of temperature and time used are similar to those described in step E.
Finally, compound XX can be transformed into the final product Id by the process described in step J.
For the case in which the group --X-- of general formula I is covalent single bond, analogous syntheses to those described above can be carried out, but using compounds XXIa or XXIb as starting materials, instead of compounds IIa or IIb. The cyclic ethers XXIa can be prepared as a (1:1) mixture of cis and trans following Scheme V (in which XXIa and XXIb are shown).
In the formulas of Scheme V, R.sub.1 is as previously defined, and R.sub.b is a lower alkyl group. In step N, an ester having the formula XXIV is treated with a strong base, like lithium diisopropylamidure, and the produced enolate is alkylated with a suitable haloalkene, like for example 3-bromo-1-propene, in the presence of an aliphatic ether or a cyclic ether, like tetrahydrofuran, at a temperature ranging from -40.degree. C. to 0.degree. C. for 3-12 h, to afford compound XXIII. The compound obtained in that way is reduced in step O by treatment with an excess of a metal hydride, such as lithium aluminium hydride, in an aliphatic ether or a cyclic ether, like tetrahydrofuran, at -40.degree. C.-0.degree. C., for 3-12 h to afford compound XXII. In step P, compound XXII is treated with an organic peracid, like m-chloroperbenzoic acid, in an inert organic solvent, such as for example a chlorinated solvent (like methylene chloride), at 0.degree.-30.degree. C., for a period of time long enough to consume the totality of the alkene, to afford compound XXIa as a (1:1) mixture of the cis and trans isomers.
The pure cis and trans isomers of the cyclic ether XXIa can be prepared diastereoselectively following the reaction sequence described in Scheme VI in which R.sub.c and R.sub.c, are lower alkyl groups, equal or different to each other, R.sub.d is a lower alkyl or aryl group, and Hal is an halogen atom. ##STR8##
The amides having formula XXIX, which are the starting materials for the previous synthetic sequence, can be obtained by a conventional method starting from the corresponding acid chloride (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 76, 1372, 1954). In the first step of the sequence, step Q, amide XXIX is alkylated with a suitable haloalkene to give compound XXVIII. In this reaction it is possible to follow the same methodology used in step N (scheme V). In step R, compound XXVIII is subject to a halolactonization process. The mentioned compound is treated with a source of positive halogen, such as for example iodine or N-bromosuccinimide, in an inert organic solvent, like methylene chloride, at 0.degree.-30.degree. C., for 10 h-5 days, to afford a mixture of cis and trans isomers in a very favorable proportion for the trans isomer XXVII. The pure trans isomer can be separated by silica gel chromatography. In step S, compound XXVII is treated with a metal hydride, such as borane-dimethylsulfide, in a solvent like tetrahydrofuran, at 0.degree.-30.degree. C., for 3-72 h, to give the corresponding diol. This compound is treated next with a base, for example, potassium carbonate, in a lower alcohol such as methanol, at 0.degree.-60.degree. C., for 30 min.-4 h, to afford compound XXIa cis. The pure XXIa trans can be prepared following a three-step sequence (steps T, U and V) that is initiated with the treatment of compound XXVII with a metal hydroxide, such as lithium hydroxide, in the presence of water and a cyclic ether, such as for example tetrahydrofuran, at a temperature ranging from -10.degree. to 30.degree. C. for 1-6 h, to give compound XXVI. Then, the mentioned compound is treated (step U) with an alkyl- or arylsulfonyl chloride, like 4-methylbenzenesulfonyl chloride, in the presence of an amine such as pyridine, in an organic solvent, such as for example methylene chloride, at 0.degree.-30.degree. C. for 1-36 h, to give compound XXV. In the last step (step V) compound XXV is reduced and treated with a base following the same procedure described for the step S, to give compound XXIa trans.
Finally, the cyclic ethers XXIb can be prepared as a (1:1) mixture of cis and trans isomers according to Scheme VII. In step X of this scheme, alcohol VII is transformed in the corresponding alkyl or arylsulphonate derivative, following the methodology described in step U of scheme VI, and then it is treated with (R.sub.1).sub.2 CuLi to give compound XXX (cfr. Tetrahedron 1978, 34, 1449-1452). Compound XXIb is obtained by deprotection of the hydroxyl group present in compound XXX, as it is described in step D of scheme I. ##STR9##
The title compounds I are useful as PAF inhibitors, as demonstrated by their ability to inhibit the in vitro platelet aggregation induced by PAF in rabbits according to test 1:

The blood is obtained by cardiac puncture of male New Zealand albino rabbits (between 2 and 2.5 Kg of weight) and coagulation is prevented by adding 1 part of 3.16% sodium citrate dihydrate in 9 parts of blood. The platelet rich plasma (PRP) is prepared by blood centrifugation at 250 xg for 10 min. at 4.degree. C. and it is diluted with platelet poor plasma (PPP) obtained by additional centrifugation at 300 xg for 10 min. The amount of platelets is adjusted to 3.times.10.sup.-5 /mm.sup.3. The platelet aggregation induced by PAF (C.sub.18, prepared in our laboratory) (16 nM, final) is determined by the Born nephelometric technique (J. Physiol., 1962, 162, 67) using a aggregometer Chrono-log 500. The activities of the inhibitors are expressed as IC.sub.50, that is to say the concentration of the drug needed to inhibit the platelet aggregation in a 50%. The results are shown in table 1:
