The mother liquors from the ethyl acetate crystallization of gentrogenin acetate contained both correllogenin and gentrogenin acetates. Repeated crystallizations from ethyl acetate removed more gentrogenin acetate, leaving the soluble fractions enriched in correllogenin acetate. Chromatography on Florisil and silica gel was not particularly effective but gave a slight enrichment of correllogenin acetate in the more polar eluates.

Received July 18, 1956

A series of unsymmetrical a,w-bis-tertiary amines has been prepared in which 3-azabicyclo [3.2.l]octane is employed as one of the bridgehead substituents. The acid addition and bis-quaternary salts of these bases have been prepared and screened for pharmacological activity. These bases were prepared by reaction of d- or dl-camphoric anhydride and the dialkylaminoalkylamines followed by reduction of the resulting imides. Several members of these series were potent hypotensive agents in mammals and were effective when administered orally.

As part of a continuing search for hypotensive agents, many series of symmetrically and unsymmetrically substituted a,@-bisaminesand their acid

addition and quaternary salts have been prepared Among the most active of these substances mere members in several series in which various modifi-
