The 2-(3-amino-2,4,6-triiodophenyl)alkanoicacids (Table T'I) and their acyl derivatives (Table T'II) showed predominantly urinary excretion; S-alkylation (Table T7111) enhanced biliary excretion. For comparison iopanoic acid was tested under the same conditions giving LDSo p.0. = 15-10 mg/kg and LDio i.v. = 2% m g k g (mouse), biliary excretion 28%, urinary excretion 13% (rabbit). For further investigation 200 mg/kg of compounds 37,38, and 40 in suspension in 5% arabic gum solution were administered orally to dogs. Opacification of the gallbladder and of bile (3) J. T.
