Indole derivatives with 5HT6 receptor affinity

Process for preparing a 2-(2-amino-1, 6-dihydro-6-oxo-purin-9-yl)methoxy-1,3-propanediol derivative

Process for preparing intermediates of formula (III)

Process for preparing a 2-(2-amino-1,6-dihydro-6-oxo-purin-9-yl)methoxy-1,3-propanediol derivative

Process and novel intermediates for preparing the L-mono-valine ester of 2-(2-amino-1,6-dihydro-6-oxo-purin-9-yl)methoxy-1,3-propanediol and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The present process and intermediates provide for reduced impurities in the mono-valine ester end-product and lower overall production costs. The process involves the condensation of a silylated guanine compound with a substituted glycerol derivative and esterification of this product with an L-valine derivative. These mono-valine products are of value as antiviral agents with improved absorption.

Process for preparing a 2-(2-amino-1,6-dihydro-6-oxo-purin-9-yl)

This invention relates to a novel process for making an allenic prostanoic acid derivative in the form of a single stereoisomer, or a mixture of stereoisomers, represented by the formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R is lower alkyl, R.sup.1 is a protecting group which can be selectively removed in the presence of R.sup.2, R.sup.2 is an acid-labile, base-stable protecting group, X is --(CH.sub.2).sub.2 --, trans --CH.dbd.CH-- or --C.tbd.C--, Y is --C(R.sup.3)(OR.sup.2)CH.sub.2 --, in which --OR.sup.2 is in the .alpha. or .beta. configuration and R.sup.3 is hydrogen or methyl, Z is alkyl, or phenyl, benzyl or phenoxy each optionally substituted on the phenyl ring, and the wavy lines represent the .alpha. or .beta. configuration with the proviso that when one wavy line is .alpha. the other is .beta..
