Abstract
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
This invention relates to a process for the preparation of a compound of formula (I) (I) where R is hydrogen or methyl and M is hydrogen or a pharmaceutically acceptable cation, characterized by subjecting to dehydrohalogenation dihalo compounds of formula (II) (II) where R and M have the meanings given in claim I and each of the groups XI and X2, which may be the same or different, is a halogen atom chosen from the bromine, chlorine and iodine group, and where a salt is required heating a compound of formula I with a base. The compounds of the invention are characterized by predominance of this disaggregating activity simultaneously with tha ability to relax the coronary arteries, and both these activities are at a higher level compared to PGI2 or its 20-methyl analogue. Moreover, like prostacyclin and 20-methyl prostacyclin, the compounds of the invention are totally free from prostaglandin-like activity and thromboxane-like activity;
that is to say, they possess pure PGI2-like activity.

Prostacyclin or PGI2 (Prostaglandins, I2, 6, December I976, page 9I5) is a known vasodilating and anti~aggregating agent biosynthesized in the arteries and lun~s of mammals and man, starting from arachi donic acid (Gryglewski et al., Prostaglandins, I2, 658, I976).
PGI2 inhibits platelet aggregation and, even more important, dis aggregates the platele~ aggrega~es in the bloodstream. In man, a variable percentage of ~he total platelets circulates in the form of small aggregates and, statistically, ~heir number is higher in atha~cl~rotio subjects7 where it induces a high risk of infarc tions ~K.K. Wu and J.C. ~ak, Lancet, 2, 923-926, I974).
Apart from the vasodilating action, pros~acyclin is also able to disintegrate these aggregates in man ~A. Szezeklik et al., Pharmacol.
Res. Comm., I978)~ The compounds of the invention are character ized by predominance of this disaggre~a~ing activity simultaneous ly with the ability to relax the coronary arteries, and both the~e activities are at a highar level comp~red to PGI2 or its 20Lmethyl analogue.
Moreover, like prostacyclin and 20-methyl prostacyclin , the com pounds of the invention are totally free from prostaglandin-like activity and thromboxane-like activity; that is to say~ they possess pure PGI2-like activity.
~ ~ ~ 3 S ~
The PGI2-like activity of the co~Dunds tested was evaluated on the basis of the capacity to relax a strip of bovine coronary ar tery and to inhibi~ platelet ag~regation induced by ADP in ~late let-rich rabbit plasma.
The prostaglandin-like activity, especially PGE2-like, was evalu ated on the basis of the capacity to con~ract rat colon, while the thromboxane-like activity, especially TXA2-like, was assessed on the capacity to contract a strip of rabbit mesenteric artery.
The activity of the compounds of the invention, especially of co_ pound I3,I4-didehydro-20-methyl-PGI2, was compared with the activity of known compounds, such as PGI2, 20-methyl-PGI2, PGE2, the ~,9-epoxy-methano- analogue of PGH2 (E.M.A., U 466I9, Upjohn C0.), _~o-- _ g.~
6~- and 6~Fmethyl-PGII, and 6~- and 6~ methyl,I3,I4-didehydro-PCI1.

Comparison o ~he experimental data reported in table I shows the importance of the triple bond in position I3,I4, as far as the biological activity is concerned. In -fact, in the compound of the invention 20-methyl-I3,I4-didehydr~pGI27 the pure PGI2-like activity is potentiated ~ve~ with respect to the 20-methyl-PGI2 analogue.
Table 2 gives some experimental data relative to the vasodilator and anti-platelet aggregating activi~y in vitro, and the disaggre gating action in vivo of compound I3,I4-dehydro-20-methyl-PGI2 and the PGI2 and 20-methyl-PGI2 analogues.
The vasodilator activity of said compounds in vitro was determined by evaluating in parallel their capacity ~o relax bovine coronary artery and rabbit mesenteric artery; unlike the other two compounds, the I3,I4-did~hYdr- derivative are aotiv~ on both v~_ -cular beds at the same doses.
The anti-platelet aggregating action was assessed both on platelet-rich rabbit plasma and on heparinized cat blood according to Gryg - lewski's test (Naunym-Schmiedeberg's Arch. Pharmacol., 302, 25-30, I978) The disaggregating activity in vivo was determined on anaesthetized and heparini7ed cats, administering the compound under test by in fusion, for instance ~R.J.Gryglewski, R. Korbut, A. Ocetkiewicz and J. Stachura, Naunya-Schmiedeberg's Arch. Pharmacol., 302, 25-30, 1978).

The compounds of the invention were tested in the form o-f their respective alkaline salts but the figures given in tables I and
2 refer to equimolecular quantities of the corresponding free acids. Table 2 indicates potentiation of the va~odilator ~d anti-aggregating activities for the compounds of the invention, withre~ to PGI2 and its 20-methyl- derivative. Like natural pros tacyclin and 20-methyl-prostacyclin , the compounds of the inven ~ion, moreover, ~o not form a substrate for I5-prostaglandin dehydrogenase. In particular, the I6S- and I6R-methyl derivatives, which do not constitute a substrate for the enzyme I5-hydroxy-prostaglandin dehydrogenase, produce a platelet aggregation i_ hibi~ng effect 2 to 5 ~imes greater than that of the corTespond ing terms not substituted in position I6.Because of their vaso dilating and anti-aggregating activity, the compounds of the in vention are particularly useful in the treatment of acute myocar dial infarction, in resolving attacks of angina pectoris, in the prevention of platelet aggregation, associated or not with heparin-like substances, in the prevention of aggregation during haemo dialysisg and during surgery with extracorporeal circulation of the blood, ~he toxicity of th~ compounds of the inverltion is quite negligible ~and therefore they can b~ safely used in therapy.
j The compounds of tbe invention can be administered by the usual routes of administration, for instance, by intravenous injection or infusion, by subcutaneous or intramuscular injection, orally, by sublingual absorption, rectally~ etc. In emergency situ ations, the compounds are preferably administered by intravenous infusion using for this purpose sterile buffers at pH 8.5 - 9 obtained from aqueous solutions containing the compounds of the , ,.

In this case the administration can, for instance, be effected through an intravenous cannula ~itted with a three-way tap and inserted, for example, into the left median cubital vein, for i_ stance, by means of an automatic syringe, at the same time. intro ducing a 5~ dextrose solution into the right vein. In the case of intravenous infusion, the doses vary preerably from 0.2 to 25, especially from 0.5 to 2.0, ng per kilogram bodyweight per minute.
The total daily dosa~e, either by injection or infusion, is pre ferably of the order of 0.005-20 mg/Kg, the exact doses depending on age, weight and condition of the patient, as well as on the route of ~dministration. Sterile solutions or suspensions in aqueous or non-aqueous medium may be used for subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. Thus, for instance, the compound may be dissolved in sterile water or in a solution of lidocaine hydrochloride (keeping the pH of the solution p-raferably between 8.5 and 9), OT else in physiological saline or in any one of the usual solvents used for this type of administration. In such cases, the dosage varies pre ferably from about 0.05 to 53 mg daily. As already stated, other ? routes of administration can be used for the compounds of the i_ ~ention; for instance, they can be administered orally, in the form of tablets, capsules or syrup, re~ally, in the form of suppos itories, or by sublin~ual absorption,- in the form of tablets or sublingual lozenges.
