No. 752,870, filed Dec. 21, 1976. n BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION n 1. Field of the Invention n The present invention is directed to certain selected compounds having anti-hemorrhoidal activity. More specifically, the present invention is directed to certain selected sympathomimetic amine compounds which quite unexpectedly have been observed to exhibit anti-hemorrhoidal activity when rectally administered to a warm-blooded animal. n 2. Description of the Prior Art n U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,809,714, 3,825,583, 3,839,584, 3,868,461, 3,966,749, all in the names of the instant assignee; pending U.S. patent application, Ser. No. 758,355 filed Jan. 10, 1977, also in the name of the instant assignee; and British Pat. No. 1,298,772, all disclose a number of sympathomimetic amine derivatives within the above-described formulas (I), (II) and (III). To the best of applicants' knowledge, the compounds of the prior art have not been used to treat hemorrhoidal conditions but have only been used in the treatment of nontopical conditions responsive to sympathomimetic amines, e.g., glaucoma, asthma, nasal decongestion, etc. n It has recently been suggested that epinephrine, because of its vasoconstrictor action, might possibly be useful in treating hemorrhoidal conditions. However, this compound is relatively unstable at rectal pH, i.e., about 6.0 but moreover, does not have the capability to effectively reduce swelling. The compounds of the present invention are among other things characterized as stable at rectal pH and slowly "cleavable" to the parent catecholamine, which through vasoconstriction, reduces the swelling associated with hemorrhoids. n SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION n Quite unexpectedly, it has now been found that compounds having the following formula: ##STR6## wherein R represents hydrogen or a straight or branched C 1 -C 5 alkyl group; and R 1 and R 2 which may be the same or different represent an acyl member which is alkanoyl having 1-22 carbon atoms, alkenoyl having one or two double bonds and having 4-22 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl-C n H 2n ##STR7## having a total of 4-10 carbon atoms of which 3-7 are ring carbon atoms in cycloalkyl and wherein n is zero, one, or two, phenoxyacetyl, naphthalenecarbonyl, pyridinecarbonyl, phenyl-C n H 2n ##STR8## wherein n is zero, one or two and phenyl is unsubstituted or is substituted by 1-3 alkyl having 1-4 carbon atoms, alkoxy having 1-4 carbon atoms, halo, trifluoromethyl, dialkylamino having 2-8 carbon atoms, or alkanoylamino having 1-6 carbon atoms groups; ##STR9## wherein R 3 may be hydrogen, hydroxyl or a member defined in accordance with R 1 and R 2 above or ##STR10## wherein R 8 and R 9 , which may be the same or different represent hydrogen, a C 1 -C 8 open chain or cycloalkyl, a C 1 -C 8 alkoxyalkyl group, a C 1 -C 8 acyloxyalkyl group, a C 1 -C 8 haloalkyl group, C 1 -C 8 carboxylalkyl group, a C 2 -C 8 alkenylphenyl group, an aryl group, and a substituted aryl group, whose substituents are selected from the group consisting of a halogen atom, an O-lower alkyl (C 1 -C 4 ) group, an O-acyl group, a nitro group, a carboxyl group, and a carboethoxy group; wherein R 5 and R 6 which may be the same or different represent hydrogen, C 1 -C 10 alkoxyalkyl, C 1 -C 10 acyloxyalkyl, phenyl, naphthyl, substituted phenyl or naphthyl, the substituents of which are selected from the group consisting of C 1 -C 5 acyloxy, halogen (Cl, Br, I) or wherein R 5 and R 6 together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form a cyclopentane or cyclohexane ring or a 5- or 6- membered heterocyclic ring (e.g., piperidine, N-C 1 -C 5 )alkylpiperidine, N-acylpiperidine, pyrrolidone, etc.; and wherein R 7 represents hydrogen or a (C 1 -C 7 ) straight or branched alkyl; and the nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, once thought to only possess sympathomimetic amine activity have now been found useful as rectal anti-hemorrhoidal agents; that is, they reduce hemorrhoidal swelling. n With reference to formulas (I) and (II) above, when substitents "R 1 " and "R 2 " in each occurrence represents an acyl member there are included alkanoyl having 1-22 carbon atoms, alkenoyl having one or two double bonds and having 4-22 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl-C n -H 2n ##STR11## having a total of 4-10 carbon atoms of which 3-7 are ring carbon atoms in cycloalkyl and wherein n is zero, one, or two, phenoxyacetyl, naphthalenecarbonyl, pyridinecarbonyl, phenyl-C n H 2n ##STR12## wherein n is zero, one or two and phenyl is unsubstituted or is substituted by 1-3 alkyl having 1-4 carbon atoms, alkoxy having 1-4 carbon atoms, halo, trifluoromethyl, dialkylamino having 2-8 carbon atoms, or alkanoylamino having 1-6 carbon atoms groups. n When R 1 and R 2 in applicants' generic formula is alkanoyl containing 1-22 carbon atoms, there are included both unbranched and branched alkanoyl, for example, formyl, acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, isobutyryl, valeryl, isovaleryl, 2-methylbutanoyl, pivalyl, 3-methylpentanoyl, 3,3-dimethylbutanoyl, 2,2-dimethylpentanoyl, docosanoyl, and 7,7-dimethyloctanoyl.

See, REMINGTON'S PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES (14th Ed.) 1970. n As for the rectal dose administered, whether a single dose or a daily dose, it will, of course, vary with the needs of the recipient. Accordingly, the rectal dosage administered is not subject to definite bounds, but will usually be a safe but effective anti-hemorrhoidal amount, or the equivalent on a molar basis of the pharmacologically active sympathomimetic amine form produced upon the metabolic release of the active drug to achieve its desired pharmacological and/or physiological effect. Normally, it is found that rectal application of any compound of the present invention in a concentration of about 0.1% to about 10.0% will suffice for anti-hemorrhoidal purposes. n At this juncture, it should be noted that while all compounds within formulas (I), (II) and (III) suffice for applicants' purposes, nevertheless, certain compounds as set out below are preferred: n (1) 3,4-dipivalyloxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (2) 3,4-dipivalyloxy-α- (isopropylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (3) 3-pivalyloxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (4) 3,4-dipivalyloxy-α- (amino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (5) 3,4-dihydroxy-α-adrenalone. n (6) 3,4-dipivalyl-α-adrenalone. n (7) 3-(trimethylaceloxy)-α- (methylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (8) 3,4-di(3-methyl)-pentanoyloxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (9) 3,4-di(3-methyl)-pentanoyloxy-α- (isopropylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (10) 3,4-di(3-methyl)-pentanoyloxy-α- (t-butylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (11) 3,4-di-p-toluyloxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (12) 3,4-di-p-toluyloxy-α- (isopropylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (13) 3,4-di-p-tolulyloxy-α- (t-butylamino)methyl)benzyl alcohol. n (14) 3,4-dicyclopentyl carbonyloxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (15) 3,4-dicyclopentyl carbonyloxy-α- (isopropylamino)-methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (16) 3,4-dicyclopentylcarbonyloxy-α- (t-butylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (17) 3,4-di-2,5-hexadienoyloxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (18) 3,4-di-2,5-hexadienoyloxy-α- (isopropylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (19) 3,4-di-2,5-hexadienoyloxy-α- (t-butylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (20)3,4-diphenylacetyloxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (21) 3,4-diphenylacetyloxy-α- (isopropylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (22) 3,4-diphenylacetyloxy-α- (t-butylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (23) 3,4-dihexanoyloxy-α-(aminomethyl)benzyl alcohol. n (24) 3,4-dipivalyloxy-α-(aminomethyl)benzyl alcohol. n (25) 3,4-di-p-toluyloxy-α-(aminomethyl)benzyl alcohol. n (26) 3,4-di(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl)oxy-α- (methylamino)-methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (27) 3,4-di(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl)oxy-α- (isopropylamino)-methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (28) 3,4-di(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl)oxy-α- (t-butylamino)-methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (29) 3,4-di(p-dimethylaminobenzoyl)oxy-α- (methylamino)-methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (30) 3,4-di(p-dimethylaminobenzoyl)oxy-α- (isopropylamino)-methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (31) 3,4-di)p-dimethylaminobenzoyl)oxy-α- (t-butylamino)-methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (32) 3,4-di(2-naphtolenecarbonyl)oxy-α- (methylamino)-methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (33) 3,4-di(2-naphtolenecarbonyl)oxy-α - (isopropylamino)-methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (34) 3,4-di(2-naphtolenecarbonyl)oxy-α- (t-butylamino)-methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (35) 3-hexanoyloxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (36) 3(p-toluyloxy)-α- (methylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (37) 3-phenylacetyloxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n (38) 3-(p-dimethylaminobenzoyl)oxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (39) 3-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl)oxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!-benzyl alcohol. n (40) 3 -pivalyloxymethyloxy-α- (methylamino)methyl!benzyl alcohol. n Without further elaboration, it is believed that one of ordinary skill in the art can, using the preceeding description, utilize the instant invention to its fullest extent.
