Abstract: Novel mercaptophenyl naphthyl methane compounds, their pharmaceutically acceptable salts and compositions comprised thereof are useful for the prevention or treatment of various medical indications associated with estrogen dependent diseases or syndromes related to osteoporosis, bone loss, bone formation, cardiovascular disorders, neurodegenerative disorders, menopausal disorders, physiological disorders, diabetes disorders, prostatic carcinoma, cancer of breast, cancer of uterus, cancer of the cervix and cancer of the colon, threatened or habitual abortion, obesity, ovarian development or function, post-partum lactation and depression.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of the formula I in which substituents R2 and R3 are arranged in trans-configuration: wherein: R1 is H or C1-C6 alkyl; C3-C7 cycloalkyl; R2 is phenyl, optionally substituted with 1 to 5 substituents independently selected from the group comprising OH, C1-C6-alkyl, halogen, nitro, cyano, SH, SR4, trihalo-C1-C6-alkyl, C1-C6-alkoxy and phenyl, wherein R4 is C1-C6 alkyl; R3 is phenyl substituted with OR5 wherein R5 has the formula (II), (III) or (IV) wherein Y is chosen from NHR4, NR42, NHCOR4, NHSO2R4, CONHR4, CONR4, CONR42, COOH, COOR4, SO2R4, SOR4, SONHR4, SONR42, a C3-C7 heterocyclic ring, saturated or unsaturated, containing one or two heteroatoms independently selected from the group consisting of O, S and N, optionally being substituted with 1 to 3 substituents independently selected from the group comprising H, OH, halogen, nitro, cyano, SH, SR4, trihalo-C1-C6-alkyl, C1-C6-alkyl and C1-C6-alkoxy, preferably NHR4, NR24, or a nitrogen heterocycle, wh

Abstract: The laevo and dextro forms of dl-3,4-trans-2,2-disubstituted-3,4-diarylchromans and similar derivatives thereof have substantially double the post-coital anti-fertility activity of the known racemic compound. The resolution of such known compound into the l- and d-isomeric forms may be carried out using di-p-toluoyl-l-tartaric acid monohydrate or di-p-toluoyl-d-tartaric acid.
