Novel 4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(pyrrol-2-yl)-thiazoles of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is C.sub.1-4 alkyl, C.sub.2-4 alkenyl, C.sub.2-4 alkynyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl, a group of the formula: --CH.sub.2 COOR.sup.2 R.sup.2 is C.sub.1-8 alkyl, C.sub.2-4 alkenyl, C.sub.2-4 alkynyl, or phenyl-C.sub.1-2 alkyl), or a group of the formula: --(CH.sub.2).sub.n --A--R.sup.3 (A is oxygen or sulfur, R.sup.3 is C.sub.1-4 alkyl or C.sub.2-4 alkenyl, and n is 1, 2 or 3), a process for the preparation of the compounds, and a pharmaceutical composition useful as a platelet aggregation inhibitor which comprises as an active ingredient the above 4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(pyrrol-2-yl)thiazole compound in admixture with a conventional pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent.

Novel 4,5-Bis (4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(pyrrol-2-yl) thiazoles and

An ethyl benzylphosphinate derivative represented by the general formula (I) ##STR1## wherein Y represents a hydrogen or fluorine atom, X represents a methylene group or an oxygen atom, and n is 2, 3 or 4. The said compounds can be produced by reacting a compound represented by the following formula (II) ##STR2## wherein Y is as defined above, with a compound represented by the following formula (III) ##STR3## wherein X and n are as defined, and M is an alkali metal atom, in an inert medium. These compounds are useful as a calcium antagonist.

Novel ethyl benzylphosphinate derivatives, process for production

A phosphonic acid ester of the formula ##STR1## exhibits calcium-antagonistic, coronary vasodilating and hypotensive activities. Pharmaceutical compositions containing the same are useful for the prophylaxis and treatment of circulatory organ diseases such as angina pectoris, hypertension and the like.

Phosphonic acid ester, pharmaceutical compositions containing the same

A phosphonic acid ester of the formula: ##STR1## and R is a lower alkyl, exhibits a calcium-antagonistic activity. Pharmaceutical compositions containing the same are useful in prophylaxis and treatment of ischemic heart diseases such as angina pectoris, myocardial, infarction, etc. and hypertension.

Calcium-antagonistic composition

2-Substituted benzimidazole compounds of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl or lower alkoxy, and R.sub.2 is hydrogen or lower alkyl with the proviso that R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 do not stand for hydrogen simultaneously and, when R.sub.1 is hydrogen, R.sub.2 cannot mean a methyl group at 6th position on the pyridin-2-yl group or methyl an isobutyl group on the phenyl group; are useful as anti-inflammatory agents and/or analgesics.
