Alkanol derivatives, and pharmaceutical preparation containing these compounds

Abstract

Alkanol derivatives corresponding to the general formula IR.sup.1 R.sup.2 N--(CH.sub.2).sub.m --Q--CH.sub.2 X--CH.sub.2 --Y--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --NHR.sup.3 (I)which have a highly selective action on histamine-H.sub.2 receptors are described. Due to this action, these compounds may advantageously be used for treatment of diseases caused by raised gastric secretion.

Description

This invention relates to new alkanol derivatives which have a highly selective action on histamine-H.sub.2 receptors, processes for their preparation and pharmaceutical preparations containing these compounds, and the use of these compounds in therapy.

Cimetidine and ranitidine have already been used therapeutically as anti-ulcerative agents. Both these substances, however, have a relatively short half life and are therefore required to be administered in several daily doses of tablets with dose units of 160 to 300 mg in a therapeutically determined form. There is therefore a need for anti-ulcerative agents which have a more prolonged action and/or higher activity than cimetidine or ranitidine.

Certain compounds inhibit gastric secretion due to their specific H.sub.2 -antagonistic activity when stimulated by histamine antagonists (Ash and Schild, "Brit. J. of Pharmacol. Chemother.", 27, 427 (1966) and Black et al., "Nature", 236, 385 (1971)). The pharmacological activity of these compounds, which is described in more detail below, may be demonstrated on the perfused rat stomach by a modified method according to DE-OS 2 734 070 or by determining the pA.sub.2 -values in vitro on the atrium of the guinea-pig (see Ariens, Molecular Pharmacology, Volume 1, Academic Press, New York, 1964). The H.sub.2 antagonistic action can also be demonstrated on waking Heidenhain-Pouch dogs by the method of Black et al, "Nature", 236, 385 (1971) and waking fistulized cats. These compounds also antagonize the histamine action on the frequency of contraction of the isolated right atrium of the guinea-pig but have no effect on histamine induced contractions of isolated, smooth gastrointestinal muscle when these are produced by H.sub.2 antagonists.

Since substances which inhibit histamine-H.sub.2 receptors have an inhibitory action both on the basal gastric acid secretion and on the gastric acid secretion induced by gastrine, histamine, methacholine or food, they may be used for the treatment of peptic ulcers caused by excessive gastric acid secretion and in the treatment of hyperacidic gastritis.

It is an object of the present invention to provide new inhibitory substances for histamine-H.sub.2 receptors with improved and/or more prolonged activity.

This problem is solved by the invention.

The present invention thus relates to new alkanol derivatives corresponding to the general formula I
