PROCESS FOR PREPARING ETHANOLAMINE DERIVATIVES HARING SYMPATHOMINETIC AND ANTI-POLLAKIURIA ACTIVITY AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING THEM AS ACTIVE AGENT

摘要

This invention relates to new ethanolamine derivatives having gut selective sympathomimetic and anti-pollakiuria activities and represented by the general formula [I]: [I] wherein R1 is aryl or a heterocyclic group, each of which may be substituted with halogen, etc., R2 is hydrogen, halogen, nitro, hydroxy, lower alkyl optionally substituted with acyl, lower alkenyl optionally substituted with acyl, lower alkoxy optionally substituted with acyl, or amino optionally substituted with acyl(lower)alkyl, R3 is hydrogen, an N-protective group, or lower alkyl optionally substituted with lower alkylthio, n is an integer of 0 to 3, and a heavy solid line means a single bond or a double bond, provided that when n is 1, then 1) R1 is a condensed aromatic hydrocarbon group or a heterocyclic group, each of which may be substituted with halogen, etc., and the like, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof to processes for the preparation thereof and to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same.
