Abstract: The invention provides a process for preparing N-(hydrocarbyl)phosphoric or thiophosphoric triamides with substantially improved yields and purity. Two equivalents of hydrocarbylamine are used in the reaction with phosphoryl or thiophosphoryl chloride and then with ammonia in an aromatic solvent. The invention further relates to N-(hydrocarbyl)phosphopric or thiophosphoric triamides having the purity of at least 98% wherein R is a hydrocarbyl group and X is O or S. (RNH)(NH2)2P=X ??(I).

Abstract: A cell-protective composition for preventing or treating of a peptic ulcer due to topical endogenous lesion of gastric or duodenal mucous membrane comprises as a physiologically active component the cyclo-(1-alanyl-amino-1-cyclopentanecarbonyl)cyclodipeptide. The subject composition is designated for administration by oral or parenteral route. It is substantially non-toxic and well tolerated, and acts beneficially, even at low dosage level.

Abstract: 6-purinyl N-(2-chloroethyl) carbamate and thiocarbamate are disclosed of the general formula I, ##STR1## in which X stands for an oxygen or sulfur atom, and also a process for their preparation by reacting a purine derivative of the general formula II (hypoxanthine or 6-mercaptopurine, respectively) with 2-chloroethylisocyanate. The subject compounds of formula I show a remarkable antineoplastic effect in vitro and in vivo, and consequently have great potential for the treatment of malignant neoplastic diseases in mammals.

Abstract: Novel peptide analogs of the serum thymic factor are disclosed, structurally modified, in comparison with the natural substance, both in their N-terminal and C-terminal parts and inside the amino-acid sequence, corresponding to the general formula IA-Gly-Gly-Ser-Asn-B-C-NH-R (I),in which A is pGlu, Gln, Ala-Lys-Ser-Gln, pGlu-Ala-Lys-Ser-Gln or Gln-Ala-Lys-Ser-Gln, B and C are Gly, Phe, Leu, Ala or a direct bond, and R is H, an alkyl with 1 to 6 carbon atoms or a 2-phenylethyl. Depending upon their chemical structure, the subject thymic factor analogs possess either agonistic (immunostimulative) or antagonistic (immunosuppressory) properties.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method for the treatment of endometritis (chronic and/or acute puerperal inflammations) in mammalian females comprising the administration of 1-(8-alpha-ergolinyl)-3,3-diethylurea derivatives of Formula I ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 represents an alkyl group containing 1 to 3 carbon atoms, R.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group containing 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and X represents a hydrogen atom or a double bond between the carbon atoms at positions 9 and 10. The compound according to Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof, is the physiologically active component of the therapeutic composition and method. The compound may be combined with a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent, vehicle, excipient, auxiliary, or carrier. The invention is particularly advantageous in veterinary medicine, when applied to the treatment of farm animals, such a cows.

Abstract: Basic ethers of 7-oxo-7H-benzo(c) fluorene have been shown to evidence a pronounced antineoplastic and immunosuppressive effect in mammals suffering from leukemia. The technique for preparing the described ethers and the addition salts thereof with pharmaceutically acceptable organic and inorganic acids involves the aminoalkylation of 5-hydroxy-7-oxo-7H-benzo(c) fluorene and its corresponding nuclear substituted derivatives on the hydroxylic oxygen atom.

Abstract: 5-Carboxyalkyl-2-iminobarbituric and 5-carboxyalkyl-2-thioxobarbituric acids and derivatives thereof are prepared either by condensation of a triester of a tricarboxylic acid with a thio or imino diamide to yield an ester which is saponified, the desired compound being obtained by liberation with a mineral acid from an ammoniacal medium containing the saponified ester. Alternatively, free tricarboxylic acids may be substituted for the triesters. The compounds described herein have evidenced a therapeutic effect in animals having transplanted tumors, and have inhibited tumor growth and lengthened the life of animals and humans.

Abstract: A process is described for the preparation of novel 6 substituted derivatives of D-8-ergolin-I-ylacetamide and the pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts thereof. The described composition evidences superior antilactation and antinidation characteristics as compared with prior art compounds.
