ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to (.+-.) trans-2-[-4(1-hydroxyhexyl) phenyl]-5-oxocyclopentaneheptanoic acid, and ester and unsaturated derivatives thereof, prostaglandin derivatives. More particularly, the present invention concerns compounds of the formula I ##STR1## wherein the wavy bonds indicate that .alpha. or .beta. configuration, the dashed bond represents either a single or double bond, which double bond may be a cis or trans double bond and R is a saturated or unsaturated acyclic hydrocarbon group having from 1 to about 20 carbon atoms, or --(CH.sub.2).sub.m R.sub.1 wherein m is 0-10, and R.sub.1 is an aliphatic ring having from about 3 to about 7 carbon atoms, or an aryl or heteroaryl ring having from about 4 to about 10 carbon atoms and wherein the heteroatom is selected from the group consisting of N, O and S. The compounds of the present invention are potent ocular hypotensives, and are particularly suitable for the management of glaucoma.
