and non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts thereof.
The compounds embraced by formula I may be prepared by the following methods:
Method A:
For the preparation of those compounds of the formula I wherein R.sub.1 is halogen, by reacting a compound of the formula ##STR3## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have the meanings previously defined,
R.sub.3 is halogen, and
Z.sub.2 is a nucleophilically exchangeable group such as a halogen atom, for example chlorine or bromine atom, with a piperazine of the formula ##STR4## wherein X is hydrogen or a hydrolytically removable protective group and, if necessary, subsequently splitting off the protective group.
The reaction is advantageously carried out in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, benzene, toluene or dimethylglycol ether, at temperatures between 50.degree. and 150.degree. C., preferably at the boiling point of the solvent or with the reactants in the molten state. It may be advantageous to use an acid-binding agent such as sodium carbonate, triethylamine or pyridine.
If it is necessary to split off a protective group, this may be done in the presence of an acid such as hydrochloric or sulfuric acid or of a base such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, preferably in an aqueous solvent such as methanol/water, ethanol/water or dioxane/water, and at temperatures up to the boiling point of the solvent.
Method B:
For the preparation of a compound of the formula I wherein R.sub.3 is alkoxy, alkylmercapto, phenylalkoxy or phenylalkylmercapto, by reacting a compound of the formula ##STR5## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have the meanings previously defined, and
Z.sub.3 is a nucleophilically exchangeable substituent such as a halogen atom, for instance a chlorine or bromine atom, with a compound of the formula
wherein
R.sub.3 ' is alkoxy of 1 to 3 carbon atoms, (alkyl of 1 to 3 carbon atoms)mercapto, phenyl(alkoxy of 1 to 3 carbon atoms) or phenyl(alkyl of 1 to 3 carbon atoms)mercapto,
or an alkali metal salt thereof.
The reaction is preferably carried out in a suitable solvent such as dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, methanol, ethanol propanol, isopropanol or benzyl alcohol and in the presence of an alkali metal salt of a compound of the formula V, for instance sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide or sodium benzylmercaptide, at temperatures between 50.degree. and 150.degree. C., for example at the boiling point of the solvent.
The compounds of the formula I are basic and therefore form addition salts with inorganic or organic acids. Examples of non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts are those formed with hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, phosphoric, lactic, citric, tartaric, succinic, maleic or fumaric acid.
The starting compounds of the formulas II to V are largely known or may be obtained by the process described in U.S. Pat. No. 2,940,972 (see Examples A to C below).

The compounds of the present invention, that is, those embraced by formula I above and their non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts, have useful pharmacodynamic properties. More particularly, they exhibit antithrombotic, antimetastatic and phosphodiesterase-inhibiting activities in warm-blooded animals.
The inhibiting effect of the compounds of the present invention on phosphodiesterase (PDE) from tumor cells and from human thrombocytes was ascertained in vitro, using the method described by Poch et al. [see Naunyn-Schmiedebergs Arch. Pharmak. 268, 272-279 (1971)].
(a) Obtaining the enzyme:
The phosphodiesterase as obtained from B16 melanoma tissue from mice by centrifuging the homogenized tissue at 5000.times. g (for 15 minutes at 4.degree. C.). The tissue was homogenized by repeated freezing/thawing and homogenizing according to Potter-Elvehjem or by ultrasound. The supernatant homogenate containing the PDE was deep-frozen in portions and deep-frozen at -25.degree. C. The PDE was obtained analogously from human thrombocytes by freezing/thawing and centrifuging.
(b) Determining the PDE inhibition (PDE assay):
The PDE inhibition by the test substance was determined with 1 .mu.mol/liter .sup.3 H-cAMP as substrate. The PDE inhibition was determined by measuring the degradation of the substrate .sup.3 H-cAMP to .sup.3 H-AMP by comparison with a control without any test substance. The .sup.3 H-AMP formed was separated off from the remaining .sup.3 H-cAMP by zinc sulfate/barium hydroxide precipitation.
The ED.sub.50 was calculated, by linear regression analysis, as the concentration which inhibited PDE activity by 50%.
The following table shows the results obtained for a few representative species of the genus represented by formula I, where
A=6-benzylthio-4,7-dimorpholino-2-piperazino-pteridine,
B=6-chloro-4,7-bis(dimethylamino)-2-piperazino-pteridine,
C=6-benzylthio-4,7-bis-(dimethylamino)-2-piperazino-pteridine,
D=7-benzylamino-6-methylthio-4-(1-oxido-thiomorpholino)-2-piperazino-pterid ine, and
E=6-chloro-2-piperazino-4-dimethylamino-7-benzylamino-pteridine.
Acute toxicity:
The approximate acute toxicity of the test compounds was determined on groups of 5 mice after oral administration of a single dose (observation period: 14 days).
By virtue of their pharmacodynamic properties the novel compounds of the present invention are useful for the prophylaxis of thromboembolic diseases such as coronary infarct, cerebral infarct, so-called transient ischaemic attacks and Amaurosis fugax, and for the prophylaxis of arteriosclerosis and metastasis.
For pharmaceutical purposes the compounds of the present invention are administered to warm-blooded animals perorally, parenterally or rectally as active ingredients in customary pharmaceutical compositions, that is, compositions consisting essentially of an inert pharmaceutical carrier and an effective amount of the active ingredient, such as tablets, coated pills, capsules, wafers, powders, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, syrups, suppositories and the like. An effective amount of the compounds of the present invention is from 0.1 to 4 mgm/kg body weight, preferably 0.2 to 3 mgm/kg body weight, two to four times daily.
