(hereinafter referred to as Compound (I)) is disclosed in
U.S Patent 4,576,934 (hereinafter referred to as Reference
(a~).
Compound (I) has e~cellent characteristics such -that
it gradually reduces the blood pressure without
substantially affecting the heart rate, and yet such
action lasts for a long perlod of time. lLecture No. A-9,

Divislon of Nippon Pharmacological ~ssocia-tion
(hereinafter referred to as Reference (b))]
Compound (I) has -three asymmetric carbon atoms, and it
should have optical and stereo isomers. However, the
above-mentioned References (a) and (b) disclose nothing on
such isomers.
As Compound (I) has three asymme-tric carbon atoms,
eight optical isomers are expected -to exist. The present
inventors have synthesized two isomers a~ong them by using
the meso isomer (the R,S isomer) and the dl mixture (a
mixture of the R,R isomer and the S,S isomer) o:E
2,4-pentanediol as -the starting material, and have tested
them for their pharmacological activities, whereby it has
been found that only the isomer of the formula (II)
prepared from the meso isomer has a strong negative
activity for cardiac muscle.

Above Steps (A), (B) and (C) are conducted by
conventional methods in accordance wi-th Reference Examples
~ 3C?Sl''~
given hereinafter. The product obtained in Step (C) may
be used for the next Step (D) without purification or
isolation.
In Step (D), an inert solvent is employed. The inert
solvent may be an alcohol solvent such as methanol,
ethanol, propanol or isopropanol, an ether solvent such as
1,2-dime-thoxyethane or THF, an aromatic hydrocarbon
solvent such as benzene, toluene or xylene, a nitrile
solvent such as acetonitrile or benzonitrile, an amide
solvent such as DAM, DME or N-methylpyrrolidone, a
sulfoxide solvent such as DMSO or sulfolane, an ester
solvent such as ethyl acetate or butyrolactone, or
pyridine.
The reaction is conducted a-t a temperature within a
range of from room temperature to 200C, preferably from
60 to 140Ct for from L to 100 hours, preferably from 5 to
20 hours.
Compound tIV) or (VII) obtained in Step (B) is reacted
with hydrochloric acid to obtain a hydrochloride of
Compound (IV) or (VII) (Step ~E)).
Then, the respective hydrochlorides are dissolved in
ethanol under heating, and cooled, whereby a (-)-product
precipitates from the ethanol solution of the R,R isomer,
and a (~)-product precipitates from the ethanol solution
of the S,S isomer. The precipitates are collected from
the respective ethanol solutions, andt if necessary,
recrystallized from ethanol to obtain highly pure (-)-R,R
~3~S~
g
isomer and (~ S,S isomer, respectively (S-tep (F)).
After the coLlection of the precipitates from the
respective ethanol solutions, the respective e-thanol
filtrates are subjected to distillation under reduced
pressure to remove the solven-t to dryness, and the dried
residue is recrystallized from acetone to obtain a ~ R,R
isomer from the acetone solution of the R,R isQmer.
Whereas, from the ace-tone solution of the S,S isomer, a
(-)-S,S isomer is obtained. For further purifica-tion of
these products, the recrystallized produc-ts from acetone
are dissolved in ethanol, the solvent is evaporated under
reduced pressure to dryness, and the dried product is
recrystallized from acetone.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salt is meant or a
monoacid salt or diacid salt with a pharmacologically
inactive acid. For example, it may be a hydrochloride, a
sulfate, a nitrate, a lactate or a succinate.
Such a salt may be obtained by neutralizing the
hydrochlorlde obtained in the above described me-thod, and
then adding the corresponding acid.
~ As will be apparent from the results of the
antihypertensive tests given hereinafter, the compounds of
the present invention have vasodilator activities, and
thus useful for treating diseases of circulatory organs of
mammals, such as angina pectoris, disturbance of cerebral
circulation or hypertension.
Thus, the present invention provides a vasodilator
~3~

isomer of the present invention or its pharmaceutically
acceptable salt, and a pharmaceutically acceptable diluen-t
or carrier. Such a composition may also be formulated

the present invention with a veterinarily acceptable
diluent or carrier.

oral administrakion, e.g. tablets or capsules, in the form
suitable for transdermal administration, e.g. ointments or
plas-ters, in the form suitable for inhalation, e.g.
aerosols or solutions suitable for spraying, in the form
suitable for injec-tion administration, e.y. a sterilized
aqueous solution, or in the form of a suppository suitable

composition of the present invention may be used in
combination with other pharmaceùtically or veterinarily
active compounds. Further, the composi-tion of the presen-t
invention may contain a plurality of the compounds of the
present invention.
The daily dose of the compound of the present
invention may be varied depending upon the type and the
condition of the desease to be cured and the type of the
patient (-the age, sex, sensitivity, etc.). In the case of
the intravenous adminis-tration, the daily dose is usually

the active ingredient per 1 kg of -the body weight.
Likewise, in the case of the oral or transdermal
administration, the daily dose is usually from 0.001 to
100 mg o~ the active ingredien-t per 1 kg of the body
weight. Further, the daily dose in the case of the
administration in the form of a suppository to e.g. a
vagina or rectum, is usually from 0.001 to 200 mg,

TEST EXAMPI.E 1: Calcium antagonis-tic effects
10 mm in situ length of taenia caecum of guinea pig
was suspended at a tension of 1 g in a 20 ml organ ba-th
fllled wlth a physiological salt solution ~NaCL: 135 mM,
KCl: 5 mM etc.).
Thls solution was bubbled with a gas ml~ture of 95
2-5~ C2 and kept at 37C. Then, the preparatlon was
depolarlzed by a ~+ rich solutlon (NaCl: 40 mM, KCl: 100
mM). After 10-20 minutes equilibration period, 10 mM of
CaC12 was added to the bathing solution. The contraction
was produced, and then the test compound applied
cumulatively. The relaxation produced was e~pressed as
percentage of the maxlmum relaxation produced by 10 4 M
papaverlne, and the concentration of the compound
produclng 50% relaxatlon, i.e. ID50 (M), waS calculated-

TEST EXAMPLE 2: Antihypertensive effects (Venous
injection)
The antlhypertensive effects of compounds of the
;~ present lnvention were tested by using spon-taneously
hypertenslve rats ~SHR) anesthetlzed with urethane-~-
chloralose. This test was conducted with a group of 3 to
5 SHR by measuring the blood pressure at the common carotid
artery of each rat. Each test compound was dissolved ln
3~ tween 80-physiological salt solution, and injected into
the Eemoral veln. From the relation be-t~een the dose
and the maximum pressure drop, ED30 (mg/kg) i.e. a dose
required for 30% pressure drop, was obtained. The results
5 are shown in Table 1.
TEST EXAMPLE 3: Antihypertensive effects
(Oral administration)
A compound of the present invention was dissolved in a
solvent of PEG:H2O = 3:1 and orally administered to a
group o~ 4 SHR at a dose of 15 mg/kg. The blood pressure
was measured by a tail-cuff method (by using KN-210-1,
manufactured by Natsume Seisakusho)~
The results were represented by the pressure drop (~)
relative to the blood pressure prior to the
administra-tion, and are given in Table 1.
