Abstract: A series of new 4,6-disubstituted 2-morpholinone derivatives were prepared either by a reaction of corresponding epoxide derivatives with phenylglycine derivatives or by the reaction of isopropanol derivatives with carboxylic acid derivatives. The new morpholinone derivatives are useful for the prevention or the treatment of arteriosclerosis.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of amide derivatives of abietic acid, dehydroabietic acid, dihydroabietic acid or tetrahydroabietic acid which comprises reacting abietic acid, dehydroabietic acid, dihydroabietic acid or tetrahydroabietic acid or a reactive derivative thereof with an amine of the following formula:HNRR'wherein R and R' are each hydrogen, a straight chain or branched alkyl group having 3 to 15 carbon atoms, a lower alkenyl group, a cycloalkyl group, a phenyl group, a phenylalkyl group and a phenylalkyl group having a lower alkyl group at the .alpha.-position, with the proviso that such amines where both R and R' are hydrogen or where one of R and R' is hydrogen and the other is phenyl are excluded.The invention further comprises the resulting abietamide derivative reaction products, compositions containing effective blood serum cholesterol-reducing amounts of said abietamide derivatives and their use as anti-arteriosclerotic agents.

Abstract: New carboxylic acid derivatives are proposed for use as agents in the treatment or prevention of arteriosclerosis. 1-(p-chlorophenoxy)-3-(N-phenyl-N-carbomethoxymethylamino)-2-propanol is a typical compound.

Abstract: 2-Aminomethyl-5-phenyloxazoles and the pharmaceutically acceptacle salts thereof have been found to be effective for meliorating inflammation in warm blooded animals.

Abstract: 2,4-Diamino-6-phenyl-s-triazine derivatives which are substituted in the 3-position of the phenyl ring and optionally further substituted in the 6-position demonstrate anti-ulcer and diuretic properties. A representative embodiment is 2,4-diamino-6-(3-trifluoromethylthiophenyl)-s-triazine.

Abstract: 2-Aminomethyl-5-phenyloxazoles and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof have been found to be effective for meliorating inflammation in warm blooded animals.

Abstract: The mono-, bis- and trisnicotinoyl derivatives of melamine and the corresponding mono- and bisnicotinoyl derivatives of benzoguanamine demonstrate anti-ulcer and diuretic activity. A representative embodiment is 2-nicotinamido-4,6-diamino-s-triazine.

Abstract: New carboxylic acid derivatives are proposed for use as agents in the treatment of prevention of arteriosclerosis. 1-(p-chlorophenoxy)-3-(N-phenyl-N-carbomethoxymethylamino)-2-propanol is a typical compound.

Abstract: 2-Hydroxymethyl-3,4,5-trihydroxypiperidine possesses antidiabetic and lipid biosynthesis inhibitory properties. The use of the compound for such indications and pharmaceutical compositions adapted to this use are described.

Abstract: Process for the preparation of abietanilides which comprises reacting abietic acid, dihydroabietic acid, tetrahydroabietic acid or a reactive derivative thereof with aniline and the products thereby produced, compositions containing the same for reducing blood serum cholesterol and method of use of such compositions.

Abstract: Substituted N-phenyl and N-benzyl abietamide derivatives, including the dehydro-, dihydro-, and tetrahydroabietamide derivatives, are cholesterol lowering agents. The abietamide derivatives, of which N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-.DELTA..sup.8 -dihydroabietamide is a typical example, are produced by the reaction of abietic acid, dehydroabietic acid, dihydroabietic acid, tetrahydroabietic acid and/or active derivatives thereof with a substituted aniline or benzylamine.

Abstract: A series of novel benzoguanamine derivatives possessing a high anti-peptic ulcer activity with low toxicity has been prepared by the reaction of the corresponding dihalogenobenzonitriles with dicyandiamide or by the reaction of the corresponding carboxylic acids or functional derivatives thereof with biguanide.

Abstract: 2-Hydroxymethyl-3,4,5-trihydroxypiperidine possesses antidiabetic and lipid biosynthesis inhibitory properties. The use of the compound for such indications and pharmaceutical compositions adapted to this use are described.
