Abstract

Abstract Heterocyclic dihydroxyquinoxaline compounds having the formula ##STR1## wherein --A-- together with the two carbon atoms denoted as 1 and 2 is selected from ##STR2## R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently H, halogen, CN, NH 2 , NO 2 , SO 3 H, SO 2 NH 2 , or CONH 2 The invention also relates to a method of preparing the compounds, pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and their use. The compounds are useful in the treatment of indications caused by hyperactivity of the excitatory neurotransmitters.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 55 words
A heterocyclic compound having the formula I ##STR20## wherein -A- together with the two carbon atoms denoted as 1 and 2 is ##STR21## wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently H, halogen, CN, NH 2 , NO 2 , SO 3 H, SO 2 NH 2 , or CONH 2 .
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 55 words
A heterocyclic compound having the formula I ##STR20## wherein -A- together with the two carbon atoms denoted as 1 and 2 is ##STR21## wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently H, halogen, CN, NH 2 , NO 2 , SO 3 H, SO 2 NH 2 , or CONH 2 .
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 77 words
A pharmaceutical composition comprising as active glutamate antagonistic component an effective amount of a heterocyclic compound having the formula I ##STR22## wherein -A- together with the two carbon atoms denoted as 1 and 2 is ##STR23## wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently H, halogen, CN, NH 2 , NO 2 , SO 3 H, SO 2 NH 2 , or CONH 2 , or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 77 words
A pharmaceutical composition comprising as active glutamate antagonistic component an effective amount of a heterocyclic compound having the formula I ##STR22## wherein -A- together with the two carbon atoms denoted as 1 and 2 is ##STR23## wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently H, halogen, CN, NH 2 , NO 2 , SO 3 H, SO 2 NH 2 , or CONH 2 , or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 92 words
A method of treating hyperactivity of the excitatory neurotransmitters, in a subject in need thereof, which comprises the the step of administering to the said subject a neurologically-effective, glutamate antagonistic, amount of a heterocyclic compound having the formula I ##STR24## wherein -A- together with the two carbon atoms denoted as 1 and 2 is ##STR25## wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently H, halogen, CN, NH 2 , NO 2 , SO 3 H, SO 2 NH 2 , or CONH 2 , or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 92 words
A method of treating hyperactivity of the excitatory neurotransmitters, in a subject in need thereof, which comprises the the step of administering to the said subject a neurologically-effective, glutamate antagonistic, amount of a heterocyclic compound having the formula I ##STR24## wherein -A- together with the two carbon atoms denoted as 1 and 2 is ##STR25## wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently H, halogen, CN, NH 2 , NO 2 , SO 3 H, SO 2 NH 2 , or CONH 2 , or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 30 words
The method of claim 3 wherein the compound is administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition thereof, in which it is present together with a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier or diluent.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 11 words
A compound according to claim 1 which is 2,3-dihydroxy-6-nitropyrido (2,3-f) quinoxaline.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 11 words
A pharmaceutical composition of claim 2 wherein the compound is 2,3dihydroxy-6-nitropyrido(2,3-f)quinoxaline.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 23 words
A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 2 in the form of an oral dosage unit containing about 10-200 mg of the active compound.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 10 words
A method of claim 3 wherein the compound is 2,3-dihydroxy-6-nitropyrido(2,3-f)quinoxaline.
