5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine derivatives expressed by general formula (1) and their pharmacologically permissible salts ##STR1## wherein A indicates a saturated or unsaturated divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms; the letter n indicates 0 or 1, and when n is 0, it indicates that Y is directly bound to an oxygen atom; Y represents a hydrogen atom, phenyl group, or substituted phenyl group; however, when Y is a hydrogen atom, n is 1; R indicates a hydrogen atom or alcohol-protecting group. These compounds have a very strong antitumor activity.

5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine derivatives and a process for the preparation

Novel 5- or 7-monohalogenated or 5,7-dihalogenated .sup.6 -PGI.sub.1 and 5- or 7-monohalogenated or dihalogenated PGI.sub.2 (except 5-monofluorinated PGI.sub.2). The novel halogenated prostacyclins are useful for controlling vascular actions and also in organ transplantation, extra-corporeal circulation and the like. The present invention also provides processes for preparing the novel halogenated prostacyclins.

A novel compound selected from the group consisting of 7-(or 6- or 4-)thiaprostaglandin E.sub.1 derivatives of the formula (I). ##STR1## wherein A represents --CH.sub.2 -- or ##STR2## in which n is 0, 1 or 2, provided that only one A cut of three is ##STR3## R.sup.1 -R.sup.7 and G are as defined in the specification, the 15-epimers of said thiaprostaglandin E.sub.1 derivatives, the enatiomers of said thiaprostaglandin E.sub.1 derivatives or their 15-epimers, and mixtures of these compounds. A 7-thiaprostaglandin E.sub.1 derivative and/or its optical isomer may be prepared by reacting a 2-organo-2-cyclopentenone (II) with an organic copper-lithium compound (III) to effect conjugation reaction. A 6-thiaprostaglandin E.sub.1 derivative and/or its optical isomer may be prepared by subjecting an .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated ketone (IV) and a thiol (V) to the Michael addition reaction. And, 4-thiaprostaglandin derivative and/or its optical isomer may also be prepared by the Michael addition reaction from a 2-allyl substituted cyclopentanone (VI) and a thiol (VIII). Some compounds ((I)-1) amongst the compounds of the formula (I) and/or their optical isomer are useful for controlling vascular actions such as angina pectoris, vasodilation etc.

Thiaprostaglandin E.sub.1 derivatives, process for production thereof,

A compound selected from thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidines or their enolate derivatives represented by the following general formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are identical or different, and each represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted cycloaliphatic group having 3 to 8 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted phenylalkyl group or a substituted or unsubstituted acyl group having 2 to 7 carbon atoms, provided that R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are not simultaneously hydrogen atoms or substituted or unsubstituted acyl groups having 2 to 7 carbon atoms; and R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, when taken together, may form, with the nitrogen atom to which they are bonded, a 5- or 6-membered ring which may further contain one or more hetero atoms; and acid addition salts of these compounds. The thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidines may be prepared by a process comprising (a) reacting a malonic acid derivative of the following general formula ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are as defined with regard to formula (I), and R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are identical or different and each represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, with 2-aminothiazoline under heat, if desired in the presence of an inert organic solvent, to induce cyclocondensation, or (b) performing said condensation reaction in the presence of an alkali metal alkoxide, if desired in the presence of an inert organic solvent, and neutralizing the resulting enolate with an acid; and if desired, reacting the reaction product of (a) or (b) with an acid. The present invention provides also several processes for preparing enolate derivatives thereof. The thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidines, their enolate derivatives and acid addition compounds thereof are useful for regulating the immune function of a warm-blooded animal.

Novel substituted hydrazide derivatives of 7-(substituted)amino-3-methylene-cepham-4-carboxylic acids expressed by the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 represents alkyl containing at least 3 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl, or optionally substituted aryl, and one of R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 represents hydrogen with the other being hydrogen or the same as R.sub.1 ; or R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 form a heterocyclic ring optionally through a hetero atom together with the attached nitrogen and R.sub.3 represents hydrogen atom; and Z.sub.1 represents amino or protected amino; and acid addition salts thereof, which are useful as intermediates for synthesizing cephalosporin antibiotics. These compounds can be prepared in high yields from the corresponding substituted hydrazide derivatives of 6-substituted amino-1-oxide-2, 2-dimethyl-penam-3-carboxylic acids, which are readily available at low costs, by heating them in the presence of a thermal rearrangement promotor such as organic sulfonic acids and optionally in the further presence of a tertiary nitrogen-containing cyclic compound, followed if desired by splitting off the amino-protecting group and converting the product to acid addition salts.
