BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
It is generally considered that in allergic asthma and other atopic diseases of man or anaphylactic shock in animals, various chemical mediators are released from lung and other tissues and cause difficulties in living bodies, such as the constriction of smooth muscles, e.g., bronchi, pulmonary artery, etc., and the enhancement of vascular permeability in the skin. As such chemical mediators, there are histamine and SRS-A. Histamine plays an important role in guinea pig anaphylactic shock but not in allergic asthma in man (Eiser, "Pharmacology and Therapeutics", 17, 239-250 (1982)), whereas a number of evidences suggest that SRS-A is the most important chemical mediator of allergic asthma in man (Brocklehurst, "Journal of Physiology", 151, 416-435(1960); Austen and Orange, "American Review of Respiratory Diseases", 12, 423-436(1975); Adams and Lichtenstein, "Journal of Immunology", 122, 555-562(1979)).
The development of the medicaments for prophylaxis, elimination and reduction of immediate hypersensitivity reactions was performed aiming at inhibiting the production and release of such chemical mediators or antagonizing the action of these chemical mediators. As an inhibitor of histamine release, disodium cromoglycate is well known and as an inhibitor of actions induced by histamine, various anti-histaminics are commercially available. On the other hand, SRS-A is known as a slow reactive and long acting chemical mediator while histamine is a rapid acting and short acting chemical mediator, and it has recently been recognized that SRS-A is a mixture of Leukotriens C.sub.4, D.sub.4 and E.sub.4 the structure of which have been clarified by Dr. Samuelsson. SRS-A, i.e., Leukotriens are lipoxigenase products of polyunsaturated fatty acids (in particular, arachidonic acid) and it has been reported that SRS-A has various activities such as enhancement of mucus production, reduction of mucociliary transport, coronary artery constrictor action, reduction of cardiac contractility, etc., besides the aforesaid action in the character of chemical mediator in immediate hypersensitivity reactions.
To delineate the dynamic roles of SRS-A and to modulate its actions in various phthological conditions, obviously it would be highly desirable to have a specific and in vivo active receptor antagonist. Furthermore, it is clinically desirable to prepare an orally active compound. FPL 55712* of Fisons shows potent anti-SRS-A activity in isolated tissues (Augstein et al, Nature New Biol., 245, 215-217(1973)). However, its biological half life is very short and its absorption by oral route is very poor (Sheard et al, Mongr. Allergy, 12, 245-249(1977)). ##STR3##
Accordingly, it has been desired to develop medicaments capable of inhibiting the production and release of SRS-A or medicaments capable of antagonizing these actions of SRS-A, in particular, the aforesaid medicaments effective in oral administration.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
As the result of investigations for developing medicaments capable of inhibiting the production and release of SRS-A or medicaments capable of antagonizing the actions of SRS-A, the inventors have discovered that the compounds shown by general formula (I) described above and the salts thereof strongly antagonize the actions of SRS-A, are effective in oral administration, and show very weak toxicity, and the inventors have succeeded in accomplishing this invention based on the discovery.
The feature of the compound of this invention in chemical structure is on the point that a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring having 1 to 3 hetero atoms is directly bonded to the terminal of the compound. That is, the compound of this invention has the chemical structural feature, as shown in the formula (I), ##STR4## in the point that moiety (c) is a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring having 1 to 3 hetero atoms and the heterocyclic ring is directly bonded to moiety (b).
Hitherto, in relation to the compounds of this invention, various compounds are known as, for example, above-described FPL 55712 of Fisons and as described in, for example, U.K. Patent No. 2,058,785. The U.K. patent discloses the compounds shown by the following the general formula; ##STR5## On these compounds, moiety (c) is a benzene ring or a benzene ring to which a heterocyclic ring is condensed and in each case the benzene ring is directly bonded to moiety (b). That is, compounds wherein the moiety (c) is a heterocyclic ring as the compounds of this invention are scarcely known.

Inhibition of SRS-A- and LTD.sub.4 -induced contraction of guinea pig ileum and trachea
Method: Male Hartley guinea-pigs, weighing 500 to 700 g were killed by a blow on the head. The ileum and tracheal strips prepared according to the method of Constantine (1965) were suspended with 1.0 g tension in an organ bath containing 10 ml of Tyrode's solution equilibrated with a mixture of 95% O.sub.2 and 5% CO.sub.2 at 37.degree. C. The tissues were equilibrated for 60 min.; during this period the Tyrode's solution was replaced every 15 min. and the loading tension was adjusted to 1.0 g. The developed tension of the tissues was measured isometrically with a strain gauge transducer, and recorded on a Recticorder. Both the contractile response of the ileum to submaximal concentration of SRS-A (derived from guinea-pig lung) and the tracheal response to 10.sup.-8 M LTD.sub.4 were measured in the absence and then the presence of various concentrations of test compounds.

Inhibition of SRS-A-mediated anaphylactic asthma in conscious guinea-pigs
Method: Male Hartley guinea-pigs, weighing 370 to 410 g were passively sensitized by intravenously injecting 1 ml/kg of rabbit anti-bovine serum albumin serum (PHA titer: 20480). Twenty-four hours after the sensitization, indomethacine (2 mg/kg), mepyramine (2 mg/kg) and propranolol (0.3 mg/kg) were injected into the saphenous vein 20, 5 and 5 min., respectively, prior to the antigen challenge. Then, animals were placed in an 11 liter chamber connected to a glass nebulizer, and 1% solution of bovin serum albumin was sprayed into the chamber for 30 seconds. The animals were exposed to the antigen aerosol for 2 min. and observed for 15 min. after challenge. The time from the start of inhalation to the onset of cough and the mortality were recorded. Test compounds were orally administered 30 min. before antigen challenge.
Result: Compound of Example 21 at 3 mg/kg p.o. tended to inhibit the SRS-A-mediated anaphylactic asthma in conscious guinea-pigs, but this effect was not significant (Table 3). At the doses of 10 mg/kg p.o. or higher, compound of Example 21 significantly inhibited the SRS-A-mediated anaphylactic asthma.

To a solution of 0.42 g of 4-(4-acetyl-3-hydroxy-2-propylphenoxy)butyric acid obtained in Reference Example 3 dissolved in 10 ml of pyridine were added 0.31 g of methyl [[5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio]acetate, 0.4 g of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and 3 mg of p-toluenesulfonic acid and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature. Insoluble matters were removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated. The solid residue thus formed was, without being purified, dissolved in a solution of 1 g of potassium hydroxide dissolved in 20 ml of 90% methanol and after filtering off insoluble matters, the filtrate was allowed to stand for 30 minutes at room temperature. To the reaction mixture thus obtained was added 20 ml of water and then methanol was distilled off under reduced pressure. The aqueous solution thus obtained was washed with 20 ml of ethyl acetate. The aqueous solution was acidified with 10% hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract thus obtained was washed with water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then the solvent was distilled off to provide 0.3 g of [[5-[[4-(4-acetyl-3-hydroxy-2-propylphenoxy)butyrylamido]-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]thio]acetic acid.
