Description

This is a 371 application of PCT/JP95/00937 filed on May 17, 1995.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This invention relates to new pyrimidine derivatives and pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts and quaternary ammonium salts thereof, as well as a process for the preparation of such pyrimidine derivatives.

More particularly, this invention relates to a new pyrimidine derivative which has a promoting action of the release of acetylcholine in digestive tracts, thus being useful for the treatment of digestive tract disorders derived from chronic gastritis, diabetes mellitus, post-gastrectomy and peptic ulcer and digestive tract diseases including reflux esophagitis, irritable bowel syndrome and spurious ileus and a gastrointestinal prokinetic agent which comprises as an active ingredient the said derivatives.

BACKGROUND ART

The abnormality in function of a gastrointestinal mobility by various causes such as chronic gastritis, diabetes mellitus, post-gastrectomy syndrome, peptic ulcer and others results in the reflux of the gastric content into the esophagus, delayed emptying of the gastric content and the depressed function of the small and large intestines.

This leads to appearance of nausea, vomiting, heartburn, anorexia, abdominal distention, epigastric dysphoria, abdominaglia, constipation and further reflux esophagitis. One cause of the diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome and spurious ileus is considered to be the depression in gastrointestinal motility.

The agents for the treatment of these conditions and diseases include direct cholinergic agent (e.g. Aclatonium Napadisilate) or Dopamine antagonist (e.g. Doperidone). However, it is well known that these known agents have the problems in their effects and side-effects, which include, for example, diarrhea and extrapyramidal syndrome.

It is well known that acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter participating in the control of gastrointestinal motility. Thus, a compound capable of accelerating the release of acetylcholine in digestive tracts may be a gastrointestinal prokinetic agent with more effectiveness and less side effects. In this circumstance, such a compound has been required to elucidate.

EXAMPLE 102

Acetylcholine-release accelerating action of the present compounds in gastrointestinal tract was investigated according to the following procedure. That is to say, a longitudinal muscle sample (including myenteric plexus) was prepared from the ileum excised from guinea pig and suspended in Magnus' tube. This sample was perfused in a physiological salt solution and stimulated by the electric current via platinum electrodes. Acetylcholine was released from the myenteric plexus of the sample by this stimulation and the longitudinal muscle was observed to contract. This contraction was isometrically recorded. Accordingly, the drug capable of accelerating the release of acetylcholine could enhance the contraction caused by electric stimulation only. Evaluation of the compounds was represented in terms of increase ratio in contraction by electrical stimulation.
