摘要

The compounds are C2-C8 straight chain alkanes terminally substituted, symmetrically or unsymmetrically, by N-(N'-substituted guanidino), N-(N',N''-disubstituted guanidino), N-(N'-substituted thioureido), N-(nitromethylene amidino) or S-(N-substituted isothioureido)groups. Two compounds of the invention are 1,3-bis-[N'-(2-(3-methoxy-2-pyridylmethylthio)ethyl)guanidino]propane and 1-[N-(2-(3-methoxy-pyridylmethylthio)ethyl)guanidino]-3-[N'-2-(5-methy l-4-imidazolylmethylthio)ethyl) guanidino)propane. The compounds of this invention are inhibitors of H-2 histamine receptors.
