title: [Studies on cardiac ingredients of plants. VIII. Preparation of nitrates of proscillaridin and their pharmacological activities].
abstract: To reduce the vascular contracting effect of the cardiac glycoside, proscillaridin (1), all kinds of its nitrates were prepared by utilizing effectively an isopropylidene function as a protective group. The pharmacological activities of proscillaridin nitrates were evaluated by the use of isolated guinea-pig papillary muscle preparations and Na+,K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase preparations from the dog kidney. Furthermore, the effect for smooth muscle using the helical strips isolated from 13-week old spontaneously hypertensive rat was examined. The positive inotropic effects and Na+, K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase inhibition activities of mononitrates (6, 9, 15) and dinitrates (3, 4, 5) were a little less potent than 1, but those of trinitrate (2) were much reduced. Every nitrate did not exhibited a vascular contracting effect but a relaxing effect. Among them, the vascular relaxing effects of 2',3'-dinitrate (3) and 2',4'-dinitrate (4) were more potent than those of the other nitrates.
