Abstract: Compounds having the formula: ##STR1## are antagonists of leukotrienes of C.sub.4, D.sub.4 and E.sub.4, the slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis. These compounds are useful as anti-asthmatic, anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective agents.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions containing a compound of Formula I: ##STR1## wherein X is O, S, SO or SO.sub.2 and R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 may be positioned anywhere on the structure, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof and certain novel benzo[a]phenothiazines, which compositions and compounds are useful in treating allergic conditions, asthma, cardiovascular disorders, inflammation and pain and are useful as cytoprotective agents.

Abstract: Compounds of the Formula I: ##STR1## and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are leukotriene antagonists. These compounds inhibit SRS-A and leukotriene synthesis and are antagonists of SRS-A and are thus useful in the treatment of asthma, allergic disorders, inflammation, skin diseases and certain cardiovascular disorders.

Abstract: Novel 6H-dibenz[b,e][1,4]oxathiepin derivatives of the formulae I and IA are employed in the treatment and control of allergic conditions such as allergic asthma.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with an improved process for the production of highly active optical isomers of (-) 7 or 8 fluorodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-3-carboxylic acid-5-oxide having the structural formula ##STR1## in which the fluoro substituent replaces a hydrogen in the 7 or 8 position. The two active isomers represented by formula II are S(-)7-fluorodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-3-carboxylic acid-5-oxide and R(-)8-fluorodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-3-carboxylic acid-5-oxide. It is especially concerned with the resolution of the racemic 7 or 8 fluorodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-3-carboxylic acid-5-oxide by first forming and separating diastereomers of said racemic carboxylic acids by salt formation with ephedrine followed by crystallization and regeneration of the desired (-) isomers and recycling of the (+) isomer by racemization of the regenerated isomer. The compounds obtained in high yield by this process are highly active prostaglandin antagonists which are useful in treating a variety of conditions such as allergic asthma.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with an improved process for the production of highly active optical isomers of (-) 7 or 8 fluorodibenzo?b,f!thiepin-3-carboxylic acid-5-oxide having the structural formula ##STR1## in which the fluoro substituent replaces a hydrogen in the 7 or 8 position. The two active isomers represented by formula II are S(-)7-fluorodibenzo?b,f!thiepin-3-carboxylic acid-5-oxide and R(-)8-fluorodibenzo?b,f!thiepin-3-carboxylic acid-5-oxide. It is especially concerned with the resolution of the racemic 7 or 8 fluorodibenzo?b,f!thiepin-3-carboxylic acid-5-oxide by first forming and separating diastereomers of said racemic carboxylic acids by salt formation with brucine or ephedrine followed by crystallization and regeneration of the desired (-) isomers and recycling of the (+) isomer by racemization of the regenerated isomer.

Abstract: Novel 7- and 8-R-10,11-dihydro-11-oxodibenzo[b,f]thiepin derivatives are employed in the treatment and control of allergic conditions such as allergic asthma.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of an enantiomer of 7 or 8-fluoro-dibenzo[b,f]thiepin-3-carboxylic acid having a negative rotation and prostaglandin antagonist activity.
