Degradation of propildazine in water.

Propildazine degradation in water at pH 7.4 was studied under aerobic conditions. Three main products were isolated by column chromatography and identified on the basis of IR, UV, and NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry and by comparison with synthetic samples. Drug disappearance in water was monitored by UV spectroscopy and was concentration, pH, temperature, and oxygen dependent. Propildazine degradation also was followed in methanol at various pH values.

[3-Hydrazinepyridazine derivatives. III. Synthesis and anti-hypertensive activity of new 3-(2-acylhydrazine)-pyridazine-6-alkylamino substitutes].

The synthesis of 2-(6-dialkylamino-3-pyridazinyl)hydrazinecarboxylates (II) and hydrazides (V) from the corresponding 3-chloro-6-dialkylaminopyridazines (I) is described. The 6-substituted derivatives of 2,3-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine-3-ones (III) and 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b)pyridazines (VI) were obtained by thermal cyclization of (II) and (V), respectively. The new acyl derivatives were evaluated together with todralazine and budralazine as antihypertensive agents in comparison with propildazine and hydralazine. The ethoxycarbonyl compound [(II g), ISF 2469] exhibits good antihypertensive activity particularly via oral administration. Its interesting pharmacodynamic properties, including slow onset and long-lasting action, qualify it for further pharmacological and clinical studies.

[Derivatives of 3-hydrazinopyridazine. II. Synthesis and antihypertensive activity of new 3-hydrazino-6-monoalkylaminopyridazines].

The synthesis of some 3-hydrazino-6-monoalkylaminopyridazines (VIII) by reaction of 3,6-dichloropyridazine with various N-monoalkylbenzylamines, followed by reaction with hydrazine and final debenzylation in an acidic medium, is described. The new compounds were evaluated as antihypertensive agents and exhibited the same or higher activity than hydralazine, but lower activity than propildazine (ISF 2123).

[A case of simulation of ovarian cyst in volvulus of an ectopic spleen].

A case of volvulus of ectopic spleen mistaken for twisted ovarian cyst is described. Attention is drawn to six points: 1) the rarity of the condition; 2) the persistent uncertainty concerning its aetiopathogenesis, even though over a century has passed since the first case was reported; 3) the mechanism leading to twisting of the spleen stalk; 4) the absence of specific symptoms and the consequent impossibility of preoperative diagnosis in most cases; 5) the ready confusion with ovarian cyst; 6) the reasons for supposing that the reported case was the result of congenital factors.

Quinoxaline studies. 23. Potential antimalarials. Substituted 5,8-dimethoxy-6-[N-(omega-dimethylaminoalkyl)amino]quinoxalines were prepared: the first series with identical 2,3-substituents H, CH3, C6H5, C6H4-4-Cl, and CH2C6H5; and the second with identical styryl groups CH=CHC6H5, CH=CHC6H4-4-Cl, CH=CHC6H3-3,4-Cl2, CH=CHC6H4-4-F, CH=CHC6H4-4-CF3, and CH=CHC6H4-4-NO2. None of the substances possessed antimalarial activity; several were toxic at highest dosage levels.

3-Hydrazinopyridazines substituted in position 6 with a primary amine, secondary amine, or an alkoxy group were synthesized and screened for antihypertensive activity. In general, the 6-dialklamino derivatives are the most active; the (2-hydroxypropyl)methylamino chain provides the best combination of high antihypertensive activity and toxicity.
