Those suitable are water-soluble and water-insoluble acid addition salts with acids such as, for example, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, citric acid, D-gluconic acid, benzoic acid, 2-(4-hydroxybenzoyl)benzoic acid, butyric acid, sulfosalicylic acid, maleic acid, lauric acid, malic acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, oxalic acid, tartaric acid, embonic acid, stearic acid, toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, or 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, where the salts are employed in the salt preparation (depending on whether a mono- or polybasic acid is concerned and depending on which salt is desired) in an equimolar quantitative ratio or one differing therefrom.
For compounds of the formula I having (a) carboxyl group(s) or having (a) sulfo group(s), suitable salts are also salts with bases. Examples of salts with bases which may be mentioned are lithium, sodium, potassium, calcium, aluminum, magnesium, titanium, ammonium, meglumine or guanidinium salts, where here too the bases are employed in the salt preparation in an equimolar quantitative ratio or one differing therefrom.

Commercial Utility
The excellent activity of compounds of the formula I and their salts against Helicobacter bacteria permits their use in human medicine as active compounds for the treatment of diseases which are based on Helicobacter bacteria.
The invention therefore further relates to a method for the treatment of mammals, in particular humans, who are suffering from diseases which are based on Helicobacter bacteria. The method comprises administering to the sick individual a therapeutically active and pharmacologically tolerable amount of one or more compounds of the formula I and/or their pharmacologically tolerable salts.
The invention additionally relates to the compounds of the formula I and their pharmacologically tolerable salts for use in the treatment of diseases which are based on Helicobacter bacteria.
The invention likewise comprises the use of compounds of the formula I and their pharmacologically tolerable salts in the production of medicaments which are employed for the control of those diseases which are based on Helicobacter bacteria.
The invention furthermore relates to medicaments for the control of Helicobacter bacteria, which contain one or more compounds of the general formula I and/or their pharmacologically tolerable salts.
Of the Helicobacter strains against which the compounds of the formula I have proven effective, the strain Helicobacter pylori may be mentioned in particular.
The medicaments are prepared by methods known per se and familiar to the person skilled in the art. As medicament, the pharmacologically active compounds of the formula I and their salts (=active compounds) are either employed as such, or preferably in combination with suitable pharmaceutical auxiliaries, e.g. in the form of tablets, coated tablets, capsules, emulsions, suspensions, gels or solutions, the active compound content preferably being between 0.1 and 95%.
The person skilled in the art is familiar on the basis of his expert knowledge with the auxiliaries which are suitable for the desired pharmaceutical formulations. Beside solvents, gel-forming agents, tablet auxiliaries and other active compound vehicles, it is possible to use, for example, antioxidants, dispersants, emulsifiers, antifoams, flavor corrigents, preservatives, stabilizers, colorants or permeation promoters and complexing agents (e.g. cyclodextrins).
The active compounds can be administered, for example, parenterally (e.g. intravenously) or in particular orally.
In general, in human medicine the active compounds are administered in a daily dose from approximately 0.2 to 50, preferably 1 to 30, mg/kg of body weight, if appropriate in the form of several, preferably 2 to 6, individual doses to achieve the desired result.
The compounds according to the invention can also be administered in fixed or free combination together with a substance neutralizing gastric acid and/or inhibiting gastric acid secretion and/or with a substance suitable for the conventional control of Helicobacter pylori.
Substances neutralizing gastric acid which may be mentioned are, for example, sodium hydrogencarbonate or other antacids (such as aluminum hydroxide, magnesium aluminate or magaldrate). Substances inhibiting gastric acid secretion which may be mentioned are, for example, H.sub.2 blockers (e.g. cimetidine, ranitidine), H.sup.+ /K.sup.+ ATPase inhibitors (e.g. lansoprazole, omeprazole or in particular pantoprazole) and also so-called peripheral anticholinergics (e.g. pirenzepine, telenzepine).
Substances suitable for the conventional control of Helicobacter pylori which may be mentioned are, in particular, antimicrobially active substances such as, for example, penicillin G, gentamycin, erythromycin, clarithromycin, nitrofurazone, tinidazole, nitrofurantoin, furazoli-done, metronidazole and amoxycillin, or else also bismuth salts such as, for example, bismuth citrate.
Biological Investigations
The compounds of the formula I were investigated with respect to their activity against Helicobacter pylori following the methodology described by Tomoyuki Iwahi et al.

MIC 50 values listed in Table A below resulted here for the compounds investigated (the stated numbers of the compounds agree with the example numbers in the description).
With respect to their in vivo activity against Helicobacter fells in the mouse, the compounds of the formula I were investigated following the methodology described by E. Dick-Hegedus and A. Lee (Scand. J. Gastroenterol. 1991, 26, 909-915). The substances were administered orally at 3.times.50 mg/kg over the course of 4 days. The elimination rates listed in Table A below resulted here for the compounds investigated:
