(i) Anti-platelet aggregation activity:
Inhibitory activity of the nitro aliphatic compounds of this invention against rabbit platelet aggregation was measured according to the method described below.
Platelet aggregation:
Blood was collected from the central ear arteries of male Japanese White rabbit (2.5 to 3.0 kg body weight). The blood was prevented from coagulating with 1 volume of 3.8% sodium citrate to 9 volumes of blood. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) was prepared by centrifugation of the blood at 1300 rpm for 10 min. at 10.degree. C. The PRP was diluted with platelet poor plasma obtained by further centrifugation of the blood at 3000 rpm for 10 min. The platelet counts in the PRP used for aggregation studies were about 4.0.times.10.sup.5 platelets/mm.sup.3. Aggregometry was performed with platelet aggregating agents in a SIENCO dual sample aggregometer (DP-247 E) at 37.degree. C., using 0.3 ml combined volume of PRP and reagents in a cylindrical glass cuvette under constant stirring with a magnetic stirring bar. Platelet aggregation was measured turbidimetrically by recording changes in the light transmission of PRP during aggregation. Activities of inhibitors were expressed as IC.sub.50 values i.e. concentrations required to inhibit the platelet aggregation responses by 50%. Collagen was used in amounts (2 to 20 .mu.g/ml for PRP) sufficient to induce a response that was 80 to 90% of the maximum obtainable. Arachidonic acid was used at a final concentration of 5 .mu.M. Similarly a final concentration of adenosine di-phosphate (ADP), usually 1 to 5 .mu.M was chosen to induce approximately 75% of the maximum aggregation. Thrombin was used at a final concentration of 0.3 U/ml.

After removing fatty tissues, spiral strips (2 mm width and 50 mm length) were made from the aorta and were suspended under a resting tension of 1 gram in 30 ml organ baths containing warm (37.degree. C.) oxygenated (95% O.sub.2 :5% CO.sub.2) Tyrode solution of the following composition: NaCl 137 mM (8 g/liter), KCl 2.7 mM (0.2 g/liter), CaCl.sub.2 2H.sub.2 O 1.8 mM (0.264 g/liter), MgCl.sub.2 6H.sub.2 O 1.02 mM (0.208 g/liter), NaHCO.sub.3 11.9 mM (1 g/liter), NaH.sub.2 PO.sub.4 2H.sub.2 O 0.42 mM (0.066 g/liter) and glucose 5.55 mM (1 g/liter).
The tissues were equilibrated for almost 90 minutes and then were superfused with Tyrode solution (10 ml/min) and noradrenaline-saline solution (0.6 .mu.g/ml) (0.5 ml/min.) which increases the tension of the tissues by about 500 mg. Changes of tension of the tissues were measured isometrically by means of force displacement transducers coupled to a polygraph. The vasodilating activity is expressed as the dose of each compound producing fifty percent reduction of the tension of the tissues (ED.sub.50).

NMR: .delta. (CDCl.sub.3) 9.0 (1H, broad s), 6.7 (1H, broad s), 5.6 (1H, broad s), 4.55 (1H, m), 2.8-2.4 (3H, m), 1.7-1.2 (5H, m), 0.9 (3H, m).
IR: .nu..sub.Max.sup.CHCl.sbsp.3 3550, 3425, 3300, 3000, 1690, 1555, 1400, 1000 cm.sup.-1.
EXAMPLE 26
4-Ethyl-2-hydroxyimino-3-methyl-5-nitro-3-hexenamide (170 mg) was prepared in the substantially same manner as that of Example 2 from (E,E)-4-ethyl-3-methyl-2,4-hexadienamide (400 mg) and sodium nitrite (1600 mg).
NMR: .delta. (CD.sub.3 OD) 5.68 (1H, q, J=7 Hz), 2.00 (2H, q, J=7 Hz), 1.92 (3H, s), 1.66 (3H, d, J=7 Hz), 0.90 (3H, t, J=7 Hz).

EXAMPLE 27
N,N-Dimethyl-4-ethyl-2-hydroxyimino-5-nitro-3-hexenamide (203 mg) was prepared in the substantially same manner as that of Example 2 from (E,E)-N,N-dimethyl-2,4-hexadienamide (0.3 g) and sodium nitrite (1.8 g).
IR: .nu..sub.Max.sup.CHCl.sbsp.3 3570, 3250, 3000, 1640, 1550, 1380 cm.sup.-1.
EXAMPLE 28
Hydroxylamine hydrochloride (100 mg) was added to a solution of 3-ethyl-4-nitro-2-pentenal (100 mg) in chloroform (3 ml) and methanol (2 ml) with stirring. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness and the residue was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate (50 ml.times.2). The combined extracts were washed successively with water, 5% sodium bicarbonate and brine, and then dried over magnesium sulfate. Removal of the solvent gave an oil which was purified by a preparative thin layer chromatography (5% methanol-chloroform) to give 3-ethyl-4-nitro-2-pentenal oxime (80 mg).
IR: .nu..sub.Max.sup.CHCl.sbsp.3 3550, 3250, 2950, 1550, 1380 cm.sup.-1.
