Abstract
Shown are cardiotonically active 2-RR'N-5-PY-6-Q-nicotinonitriles where R is methyl or ethyl, R' is hydrogen or methyl, PY is 4- or 3-pyridinyl or 4- or 3-pyridinyl having one or two substituents, and Q is hydrogen or methyl, the latter only when R' is hydrogen, or pharmaceutically acceptable acid-addition salts thereof. Also shown are cardiotonic compositions and a method for increasing cardiac contractility using as active components 2-RR'N-5-PY-6-Q-nicotinonitriles or pharmaceutically acceptable acid-addition salts thereof, where R, R', PY and Q are defined as above. Also shown is the process for preparing said 2-RR'N-5-PY-6-Q-nicotinonitriles by reacting a 2-halo-5-PY-6-Q-nicotinonitrile with an amine of the formula RR'NH.
