2,4-pentadienoic acid derivatives and platelet aggregation inhibitors containing the same

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
(1) Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to novel 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivatives and platelet aggregation inhibitors containing the same. The 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivatives provided by the invention are novel compounds which possess a potent antiplatelet activity. Accordingly, they are useful in preventing diseases caused by platelet aggregation, that is diseases such as thrombosis.
(2) Description of Prior Arts
A variety of compounds are known to have antiplatelet activities. However, the prior art compounds such as, for example, prostaglandin I.sub.2 (PGI.sub.2) contain unstable vinylether group in the molecule so that the half life in the living body is short. Carbacyclins in which the 6,9-oxygen atoms in the molecule are replaced by carbon atoms to improve the above problem are also known. Nevertheless, there are no practically effective therapeutic agents, and development of more improved drugs is desirable. Recently, thromboses such as myocardial infarction and cerebral thrombosis have been a greater part of adult diseases and development of antithrombic agents capable of effectively preventing such diseases is also strongly desired.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
As a result of extensive studies on the syntheses and pharmacological activities of 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivatives, we have found that specific 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivatives possess high platelet aggregation-inhibiting activities.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivative represented by the general formula (I) ##STR1## wherein R is a group having the formula ##STR2## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 may be the same or different and each represents a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, a group having the formula ##STR3## in which m represents 1 or 2 or a group having the formula ##STR4## and n represents an integer from 0 to 3 and an ester or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof.
A further object of the invention is to provide a platelet aggregation inhibitor comprising a 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivative having the above-mentioned formula (I) or an ester or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof.

TEST EXAMPLE
Platelet Aggregation-Inhibitory Activities
Using a syringe containing 3.8% sodium citrate solution (1 volume), 9 volumes of blood is drawn from the carotid artery of a rabbit. Said blood is centrifuged to give platelet-rich plasma (PRP: 7.times.10.sup.5 /.mu.l).
In a cuvette is placed 250 ul of said PRP, followed by incubation in a thermostat at 37.degree. C. for 2 min. Then, 20 .mu.l of physiological saline buffer solution of a 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivative to be tested is added, and the mixture is incubated for 3 min. A platelet-aggregation inducer, an arachidonic acid solution, a collagen solution or an ADP solution is then added, and platelet aggregation is measured by the Born's turbimetry (which is described, for example, in Journal of Physiology, vol. 168, p. 178 (1968)). 50% Inhibitory concentration of the platelet aggregation caused by arachidonic acid (60 .mu.mol), collagen (10 .mu.g/ml) or ADP (5 .mu.mol) is shown in Table 5 in comparison with prostaglandin I.sub.2, aspirin or dipyridamol.
As shown in Table 5 with reference to typical examples, the .alpha.-epimers showed a marked platelet antiaggregation activity. It was demonstrated that 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivatives of the invention not shown in Table 5 also had a similar antiaggregation activity. 50% Inhibitory concentration as indicated in Table 5 means the concentration of a 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivative needed for inhibiting the platelet aggregation by 50% by the introduction of said 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivative, taking the platelet aggregation in the absence of 2,4-pentadienoic acid derivatives of the invention as 100%.
