Heterocyclic-methylthioalkyl-guanidines

摘要

The compounds are N-(heterocyclomethylthioalkyl)derivatives of alkylguanidines, C-alkyl and C-aryl amidines and S-alkylisothioureas. The compounds may also have N'-lower alkyl or N'-(heterocyclomethylthioalkyl)substituents. Three compounds of the invention are S-methyl-N-[2-(5-methyl-4-imidazolylmethylthio)ethyl]isothiourea, N,N'-bis-[2-(5-methyl-4-imidazolylmethylthio)ethyl]acetamidine, N,N'-bis-[2-(5-methyl-4-imidazolylmethylthio)ethyl]N''-methylguanidine. The compounds of this invention are histamine H2-antagonists.
