Description
This invention relates to a therapeutic preparation for peptic ulcers, such as gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer and the like, which comprises an aliphatic ketone compound represented by the general formula: ##STR3## wherein represents a saturated or unsaturated bond, R.sub.1 is hydrogen or a lower alkyl group, R.sub.2 is hydrogen, a lower alkyl group or a lower alkylcarbonyl group, R.sub.3 is an aliphatic hydrocarbon group of the formula: ##STR4## WHEREIN L, M AND N ARE 0 OR 1, PROVIDED THAT L+M+N.gtoreq.2; AND A, B, C, D, E AND F REPRESENT HYDROGEN ATOM, OR THEY MAY FORM A BOND OF A--B, C--D AND E--F, PROVIDED THAT WHEN THE BOND IS AN UNSATURATED BOND, A, B, C, D, E AND F ARE ALL HYDROGEN ATOMS.
The fundamental medicine therapy for the treatment of the peptic ulcers comprises generally decreasing so-called attacking factor (hydrochloric acid, pepsin) to the mucosal membrane of digestic tract, and increasing the protecting factor (resistance of mucosal membrance and surgical reparative force) to the attacking factor.
Typical medicines used for decreasing the attacking factor include antacids, such as sodium bicarbonate, magnesium tri-silicate, synthetic aluminum silicate and the like; parasympathicolytics, such as propantheline bromide, buscopan and the like. These medicines, however, have the following drawbacks. Although the antacids have effects which relieve dramatically subjective sympton such as abdominal pain, nausea, such effects are transient.
In addition, the acidity of the gastric juice is rather increased due to the acid rebound phenomenon by using the above-mentioned antacid. This makes the symptons rather worse. The parasympathicolytics are effectively used for decreasing the secretion of the gastric juice, to depress the attacking factor. However, the use of parasympathicolytics is contraindicated to patients accompanied with glaucoma, hypertrophy of the prostate, heart disease, ileus or obstruction of the neck of the bladder, because they are accompanied with the side effects such as disturbance of vision, thirst, dysuria, constipation. Their use is therefore considerably restricted.
Illustrative medicine having anti-pepsine effect is salazo sulfapyridine which is said to have an effect of increasing the protecting factor. However, this medicine is not so effective for treatment of peptic ulcers. In addition, the medicine is contraindicated to the patients sensitive to sulfa-drug, and it may be accompanied with the side effects such as nausea, anorexis, leukopenia and the like.
It can be generally said that the therapy using the medicine which decreases the attacking factor is so-called symptomatic therapy. On the other hand, it can be said that the therapy using the medicine which increases the protecting factor (resistance of mucosal membrane of digestive tract) is so-called causal therapy, since it is directed to recover positively the surgical injury on the mucous membrane of the digestive tract as the results of increasing the protecting factor of said membrane (resistance of mucosal membrance) against the attacking factor and of accelerating a regenerating action of said injured membrane.
In a recent medicine therapy for the peptic ulcers, the peptic ulcer is fundamentally treated by administering a medicine which increases the protecting factor while relieving a subjective symptom by the use of a medicine which decreases the attacking factor. There have been previously used chlorophylline preparations such as sodium copperchlorophylline and the like as the medicine for increasing the protecting factor. Study has been, however, carried out to pursue a medicine having effect on intensifying the regeneration of injured digestive tract. The preparation of geranylfarnesyl acetate (generally called as gefarnate) was thus developed; and the pursuit was achieved in the first place. In spite of said development, there has been further pursued a medicine having more improved effect.
We researched same compounds for using the treatment of peptic ulcers, which have more improved effect than that of the gefarnate in regard to regeneration of injured mucous membrane, and found the compounds according to this invention.
The aliphatic ketone derivatives of the formula (I) to be used to accomplish the object of this invention include the known compounds and novel compounds. Examples of the known compounds are as follows:

Pharmacological experiment 1
Effect on the cold and restraint stress ulcer
Method
Preventive effect of the test compounds on the development of the cold and restraint stress ulcer was estimated according to Levine's method [Proc. Soc. Exptl. Biol. Med., 124, 1221 (1967)], using SD strain female rats weighing about 170 g, and being 8-10 weeks old, as test animals.
All test compounds were suspended in 5% gum arabic solution and one drop of Tween 80, and the suspension was orally administered to rat. A dose amounted to 200 mg/kg, and the volume of the administrative dose was controlled to 0.5 ml/100 g B. W. As a blank test, 5% gum arabic solution was administered.
The administration of the test compounds and the blank test were carried out 30 minutes before adopting the cold and restraint stress.
The effect of the test compounds was estimated by finding the value (ulcer index) of the total length of the erosion observed in the glandular portion of the test animals two hours after the cold and restraint stress, and calculating the effect of the administration of said compounds as the inhibition rate of the development of the ulcer from the value. ##EQU1##
Results
The inhibition rates of the test compounds to the development of ulcer due to the cold and restraint stress are listed in the following Table a.

Pharmacological experiment 2
Effect on subacute aspirin ulcer
Method
Aspirin in amount of 200 mg/kg/day was orally administered to SD strain male rats (body weight of about 250 g, nine weeks old) after abstinence from the food for 24 hours. The rats were fed for one hour, after one hour from said administration, and again abstained from the food. The administration of aspirin was continued for five days in the same schedule as mentioned above. The effect was estimated on the sixth day.
All the test compounds were emulsified with 5% gum arabic solution and one drop of Tween 80. The emulsions were administered continuously for five days, together with aspirin to rat. The dose amounted to 200 mg/kg/day, and the volume of the dose was controlled to 0.5 ml/100 g B. W. The blank test was similarly effected as pharmacological experiment 1.
The effect of the test compound was estimated by finding the value (ulcer index) of the total lengths of erosions developed in the glandular portion of the test animal with respect to the test compounds group and the blank test group, respectively, and calculating from said value the effect of the administration of the test compounds as the inhibition rate.

Synthesis of 6,10,14-trimethyl-5,13-pentadecadiene-2-on
To an ethanol solution of sodium ethylate prepared from 50 ml of ethanol and 2.3 g of metallic sodium, 13 g of ethyl acetoacetate were added dropwise with cooling at a temperature less than 5.degree. C. for 20 minutes. To the resulting solution, a solution containing 20 g of 3,7,11-trimethyl-2,10-dodecadiene-1-bromide in 30 ml of dioxane was then added dropwise for one hour. After the addition was over, the solution was stirred at room temperature for 6 hours, to complete the reaction. After the reaction was over, 50 ml of 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution were added dropwise with heating at 50.degree. C. for 10 minutes, and the whole was heated under reflux with stirring for 5 hours. After the reaction was over, the reaction mixture was poured into 300 ml of ice water, and extracted with 200 ml of n-hexane. The extracted layer was washed with water, and dried over Na.sub.2 SO.sub.4. The solvent was then distilled off under reduced pressure, to obtain 18 g of oily product.
The whole product was subjected to a column chromatography using 300 g of silica gel for column chromatography in size of 60-80 mesh with benzen as an eluate. Fraction, in amount of 14 g, was obtained as an oily product. This fraction exhibited a monospot on a thin layer chromatogram. Boiling point of the product was 122.degree.-124.degree. C./0.5 mmHg.
