In the significance as used above, "C.sub.2-4 alkylene" means an alkylene having 2 to 4 carbon atoms, of which preferred examples are ethylene, propylene and butylene. "C.sub.1-8 alkyl" means a straight or branched alkyl group having from one to eight carbon atoms (e.g., methyl, pentyl, .alpha.-methyl-n-pentyl, .alpha.,.alpha.-dimethyl-n-pentyl). The indan compounds [I] of this invention have various useful pharmacological activities and are useful as antiulcer agents, gastric secretion inhibitors, and hypotensors.
The indan compounds [I] have been found to possess anti-gastro-intestinal ulcer activity. That is, they inhibit an excessive secretion of gastric acid, and thereby inhibit formation of gastro-intestinal ulcer or heal the ulcer in mammals.
The compounds [I] also show a hypotensive activity. Among the indan compounds [I] of this invention, the compounds of the following formula [Ia] are preferable; ##STR5## WHEREIN B, X, R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and Z are as defined above, for instance, in view of their excellent properties as gastric secretion inhibitors. Particular preferred are the compounds of the following formula [Ib]; ##STR6## wherein R and R.sub.2 are as defined above.
The novel indan compounds [I] of the invention can be prepared by the following methods:
Method (a):

(R').sub.3 P = CH -- A -- COOM [III]
wherein A is as defined above, R' is an aryl and M is an alkali metal and, if Y is a hydroxy-protecting group, such as tetrahydropyranyl, or alkoxyalkyl, hydrolyzing the resulted products. The Wittig reaction can be carried out in the presence of solvent using 1 - 10 equivalent (preferably 2 - 4 equivalent) of the Wittig reagent [III]. Examples of the solvent are ethers (e.g. diethylether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethoxyethane), hydrocarbons (e.g., benzene, toluene, hexane) and dimethyl sulfoxide. The reaction can be effected ordinally at room temperature, but it can be controlled with warming or cooling depending upon the extent of the progress. The reaction time may vary depending upon the reaction temperature and the reagent to be used therein but generally 2 - 30 hrs. The Wittig reagent [III] can be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula [III-a]: ##STR9## with a base according to known method [E. J. Corey, J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 91 5675 (1969)]. The indan compound thus obtained can be separated from the reaction mixture and the indan compound thus obtained, if Y is a hydroxy-protecting group, can be hydrolyzed and purified by the conventional procedures.
Method (b):
The novel indan compound [Id] of the formula; ##STR10## wherein A, B, X, R, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined above, can be prepared by reducing a carbonyl compound of the formula [IV]; ##STR11## wherein A, B, X, R, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined above, with a reducing agent and, when R.sub.2 is hydrogen in the formula [Id], can be also prepared by reducing a carbonyl compound of the formula [V]; ##STR12## wherein A, B, X, R and R.sub.1 are as defined above, with a reducing agent.

The organic metal compound can be prepared by the conventional procedures. The reaction condition may vary depending upon the reaction temperature and the organic metal compound to be used therein, but the temperature is preferably about 0.degree.- 10.degree. C to avoid side reaction. The novel indan compound thus obtained can be separated, if Y is a hydroxy-protecting group, hydrolyzed and purified by the conventional procedures.
Method (d):
The novel indan compound [If] of the formula ##STR15## wherein A, B, X, R, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined above, can be prepared by oxidizing a hydroxy compound of the formula [VIII] ##STR16## wherein A, B, X, R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and Y are as defined above, with oxidizing agent. For this oxidation, any of known oxidizing agents which can oxidize only secondary alcohol group without affecting ester or carbon-carbon double bonds can be used. Examples of such oxidizing agents are manganese dioxide, anhydrous chromic acid, anhydrous chromic acid-pyridin (Collins reagent), and organic oxidizer such as N-bromoacetamide or dimethylsulfoxidedicyclohexylcarbodiimide (Moffatt oxidation). The reaction can be carried out in the presence or absence of solvent. Examples of the solvent are dichloromethane, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, acetic acid or t-butanol. The reaction condition may vary depending upon the reaction temperature and the oxidizing agent to be used therein. The reaction temperature may be from -10.degree. to 50.degree. C.

A suspension of 65% sodium hydride (443 mg) and 8 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide was stirred for 1.5 hrs. at 70.degree. C under nitrogen and cooled to ambient temperature.
To this solution was added 2.66 g of 4-carboxy-n-butyl-triphenylphosphonium bromide with 7 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide. After stirring for 5 minutes, to this was added a solution of 440 mg of 1-hydroxy-3-(3'-hydroxy-octyl)-indan-2-acetoaldehyde .gamma.-lactol in 10 ml of dimethylsulfoxide and the resulting mixture was allowed to stir vigorously for 2 hrs. at room temperature.
The reaction mixture was quenched by addition to a mixture of ice-water and ether. After equilibration, the organic phase was washed with 1 N sodium hydroxide and water. The aqueous washings were combined and carefully acidified with diluted hydrochloric acid. The aqueous phase was extracted well with ethylacetate.
