8-Azapurin-6-one derivatives of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.8 represents alkoxy of from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and R.sup.9 represents cyano, or a group of the formula V, VI, VII, VIII or IX indicated below: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.10, R.sub.13 and R.sup.14 each represents cyano, or alkanoyl or alkoxycarbonyl of from 2 to 6 carbon atoms, R.sup.11 represents hydrogen, cyano, or alkanoyl or alkoxycarbonyl of from 2 to 6 carbon atoms, R.sup.12 represents hydrogen or, when R.sup.11 represents hydrogen, R.sup.12 represents alkyl of from 1 to 6 carbon atoms or alkoxycarbonyl of from 2 to 6 carbon atoms, or the pair of symbols R.sup.11 and R.sup.12 form together an alkylene chain of the formula --(C.sub.q H.sub.2q)-- wherein q is an integer from 3 to 6, R.sup.15 and R.sup.16 each represents hydrogen or alkyl of from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and Y.sup.1 represents oxygen or sulphur, are new compounds possessing pharmacological properties, in particular properties of value in the treatment of respiratory disorders such as allergic bronchial asthma.

8-Azapurin-6-one derivatives

Benzamide derivatives of the formula:- ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 represents a fluorine, chlorine or bromine atom, or an alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulphonyl, alkanoylamino, alkylamino or alkylsulphamoyl group, each such group containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a dialkylsulphamoyl, dialkylamino or dialkylcarbamoyl group (wherein the two alkyl groups may be the same or different and each contains from 1 to 4 carbon atoms), an alkanoyl, alkoxycarbonyl, alkoxycarbonylamino or alkylcarbamoyl group containing from 2 to 6 carbon atoms, or a hydroxy, formyl, nitro, trifluoromethyl, aryl, benzyloxycarbonylamino, amino, sulphamoyl, cyano, tetrazol-5-yl, carboxy, carbamoyl or aroyl group, and n represents an integer 1, 2 or 3, are new compounds possessing pharmacological properties, in particular properties of value in the treatment of respiratory disorders manifested by the interaction of tissue-fixed antibodies with specific antigens.

Benzamide derivatives

8-Azapurin-6-ones substituted in the 2-position by a phenyl group carrying in a meta-position a sulphamoyl substituent, and also a hydroxy, alkoxy or alkylthio substituent para with respect to the said sulphamoyl grouping, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, possess pharmacological properties useful in the treatment of allergic respiratory disorders, for example allergic bronchial asthma.

Azapurinones

The invention provides certain novel 8-azapurin-6-one derivatives substituted in the 2-position by a substituted phenyl group, preferably carrying an alkoxy in the 2-position, which possess valuable pharmacological properties especially in the treatment of respiratory disorders manifested by the interaction of tissue-fixed antibodies with specific antigens.

8-Azapurin-6-ones substituted in the 2-position by an unsubstituted or substituted phenyl or naphthyl group, or by an alkenyl or alkynyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkyl group contaning 2 to 10 carbon atoms, or an alkyl group containing 1 to 10 carbon atoms carrying one or more substitutents selected from halogen atoms and hydroxy, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, phenyl and substituted phenyl groups, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, possess pharmacological properties useful, for example, in the treatment of allergic bronchial asthma.
