Abstract:
Pharmaceutical compositions of synergistic analgesic activity are provided which comprise an azido compound of the following formula: ##STR1## or a salt thereof wherein R is hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, acetyl or morpholino-methyl and a compound of the formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 are hydrogen or lower alkyl and the dotted lines represent hydrogenated bonds or olefinic bonds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts and quaternary salts thereof, in admixture with suitable inert solid or liquid carriers or dilutents.
Abstract:
A pharmaceutical composition with synergistic analgesic effect which comprises an effective amount of 6-desoxy-6-azido-14-hydroxy-7,8-dihydro morphine or codeine or an analgesically effective salt thereof and an effective amount of a compound ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are lower alkyl and R.sup.3 is hydrogen or lower alkyl, and the dotted lines represent hydrogenated or unsaturated bonds or an analgesically effective salt or quaternary compound thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel morphinane-skeletoned compounds of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein Y in-NH phenyl or --NH dintro phenyl, Z is --CH.sub.2 -- CH.sub.2, R.sub.2 is hydroxyl and R.sub.3 is H or methyl, the steric isomers and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, a novel process for producing the same and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same as active ingredients.The novel compounds can be used in the therapy as analgetic or morphine-antagonistic agents.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of pharmaceutically acceptable 3-protected derivatives of 6-deoxy-6-azido-14-hydroxy-7, 8-dihydroisomorphine, selected from the group which consists of 3-O-acetyl-6-deoxy-6-azido-14-hydroxy-7, 8-dihydroisomorphine, 3-O-tetrahydropyranyl-6-deoxy-6-azido-14-hydroxy-7, 8-dihydroisomorphine and 3-O-methylenemethoxy-6-deoxy-6-azido-14-hydroxy-7, 8-dihydroisomorphine, and the salts of these compounds which comprise the following steps:Blockin the hydroxy in position 3 of 14-hydroxy-7, 8-dihydromorphine with a moiety selected from the group which consists of acetyl, tetrahydropyranyl, and methylenemethoxy; andAzidiylating position 6 of the compounds formed in a step (a) thereby removing the hydroxy formerly in that position.
Abstract:
A pharmaceutical composition having synergistic analgesic effect which includes an azido compound of the formula: ##SPC1## namely an azido morphine or an azido codeine, and at least one compound of the formula: ##SPC2##The synergistic composition has been found to have less narcotic side effects than morphine and equal or better analgesic properties.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a novel process for preparing chloroacetanilides of the formula ##STR1## wherein: R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 represent independently from each other a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1-8 alkyl or C.sub.1-8 alkoxy group; andR.sub.3 stands for a straight chained or branched C.sub.1-8 alkoxy group.Said process is characterized by chloroacetylating a 2,6-dialkylaniline of the formula ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined above, at a temperature of 10.degree. to 120.degree. C., optionally in a solvent medium in the presence of an acid binding agent, then reacting a thus-obtained intermediate with chloromethyl chloroformiate or, alternatively, reacting a compound of the formula (II) first with chloromethyl chloroformiate and subjecting then to chloroacetylation, thereafter reacting a thus-obtained intermediate with an alcohol of the formulaR.sub.3 --OH (III),wherein R.sub.3 is as defined above, optionally in a solvent medium in the presence of an acid binding agent, and recovering a product of the formula (I) in a known manner.The process of the invention enables the more simple and economic preparation of the compounds of formula (I) of improved purity.
