Abstract
3-Hydrazino-6-PY-pyridazine or pharmaceutically-acceptable acid-addition salt thereof is useful as a cardiotonic agent, where PY is 4- or 3-pyridinyl or 4- or 3-pyridinyl having one or two lower-alkyl substituents. 6-PY-3-pyridazinol is prepared by reacting 6-PY-3-pyridazinol with a chlorinating agent to produce 3-chloro-6-PY-pyridazine and reacting said 3-chloro compound with hydrazine to produce said 3-hydrazino compound. 3-Hydrazino-6-PY-pyridazine or pharmaceutically-acceptable acid-addition salt thereof is disclosed as the active component in cardiotonic compositions for increasing cardiac contractility and in the method for increasing cardiac contractility in a patient requiring such treatment. The novel intermediate 3-chloro-6-PY-pyridazine is prepared as noted above.
