摘要:
Novel butadiene derivatives of the formula [I]:
wherein Ring A is tri-lower alkoxyphenyl, R¹ and R² combine each other to form a group of the formula:
〉N-R³
or one of R¹ and R² is lower alkoxy, and the other is group of the formula: -NHR³, in which R³ is hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted lower alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted lower alkoxy, substituted or unsubstituted amino, hydroxy or pyridylcarbonyl, or salts thereof. Among the desired butadiene derivatives [I] of the present invention, the 3-butenoic acid-type compounds per se have antithrombotic activity, but they can also be used as an intermediate for preparing the 2,5-pyrrolidinedione-type compounds having excellent antithrombotic activity. And additionally a butenoic acid ester of the formula [II]:
wherein Ring A is a tri-lower alkoxyphenyl group, and one of R¹² and R²² is a lower alkoxy group, and the other is hydroxy group, or a salt thereof, as synthetic intermediate.
