Abstract: Thienopyran derivatives of the general formula ##STR1## in which the radial ##STR2## denotes one of the formulae ##STR3## R denotes hydrogen or a radical --CN, --CHO, --CH.dbd.NOH, --CONH.sub.2 or --COOR.sub.1,R.sub.1 denotes the radical (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)-alkyl and n denotes an integer 3, 4 or 5, and a process for their preparation, pharmaceutical preparation and their use for the treatment of diseases which can be cured by activation of membrane K.sup.+ channels, such as high blood pressure and asthma.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel thieno-(3',4'-4,5)imidazo(2,1-b)thiazole derivatives of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 denotes hydrogen, halogen or CF.sub.3 andR.sub.2 denotes hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl and, in the case in which R.sub.2 denotes hydrogen, their pharmaceutically utilizable salts, a process for the preparation of these compounds and their use for the treatment of cancer or rheumatoid arthritis caused by a defective immune system.

Abstract: The invention relates to new enol ethers of 6-chloro-4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(2-pyridyl)-2H-thieno(2,3-e)-1,2- thiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide of the formula ##STR1## in which R denotes (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkyl, (C.sub.5 -C.sub.7)-cycloalkyl or benzyl, and a process for their preparation. The new compounds have an antiinflammatory activity and are suitable for the treatment of rheumatism.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel 2-thienyloxyacetic acid derivatives of the general formula ##STR1## in which R denotes a phenyl or thienyl group which is optionally mono- or polysubstituted by halogen, trifluoromethyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, and pharmaceutically usable salts thereof, a process for the preparation of these compounds and their use for the treatment of thromboses, inflammations, high blood pressure, apoplexy and angina pectoris.

Abstract: Substituted isoxazoles of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 denotes C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, R.sub.2 denotes hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl chlorine or bromine, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4, which are the same or different are hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, but not both hydrogen and n denotes the interger 6, 7, or 8. The novel ocmpounds have a pronounced antiviral action and can be employed for the treatment and prophylaxis of virus diseases.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel derivatives of 4,5-dihydrooxazoles of the formula ##STR1## in which A denotes --CH.dbd.CH-- or --S--,R.sub.1, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4, independently of one another, denote hydrogen or lower alkyl,R.sub.2 denotes hydrogen or lower alkoxy, andn denotes 0 or 1, a process for their preparation, and pharmaceutical preparations which contain these compounds. The novel compounds cause blockage of H.sup.+ /K.sup.+ ATPase and can be used as active ingredients in medicaments for treatment and prophylaxis of disorders which are caused by increased gastric secretions.

Abstract: The invention relates to new nitrogen-arylmethoxy-thiophene derivatives of the formula I ##STR1## wherein the R--CH.sub.2 --O-group is in position 4 or 5 of the thiophene ring, R denotes a 2-pyridinyl- or 2-quinolinyl group and R.sub.1 denotes a --COO-lower alkyl-, --CO--(CH.sub.2)n--CH.sub.3 or --CH(OH)--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --CH.sub.3 group, wherein n represents an integer from 2 to 6, and their hydrates and/or their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts, a process for their preparation and pharmaceutical products containing these compounds. The new compounds and their salts have useful pharmacological properties. They can be used as active compounds for medicaments for the treatment and prevention of diseases, caused by a disturbance in arachidonic acid metabolism.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for the preparation of a plasma based on starch by the hydrolytic decomposition of an amylopectin-rich starch to a definite molecular weight and partial etherification to a definite substitution before or after the hydrolysis, wherein the hydrolytic decomposition is carried out at least partly with .alpha.-amylase, .beta.-amylase or pullulanase.
