Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to compounds of the formula ##STR1## or an optical isomer thereof wherein R 1 and R 2 are the same or different and are an alkyl or alkenyl group of 6 to 24 carbon atoms; R 3 , R 4 and R 5 are the same or different and are alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, aryl, aralkyl of 7 to 11 carbon atoms, or when two or three of R 3 , R 4 , and R 5 are taken together to form quinuclidino, piperidino, pyrrolidino, or morpholino; n is 1 to 8; and X is a pharmaceutically acceptable anion.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 115 words
A double coated liposome complex, comprising: a polyanion; a lipid of Formula I ##STR8## or an optical isomer thereof wherein R 1 and R 2 are the same or different and are an alkyl or alkenyl group of 6 to 24 carbon atoms; R 3 , R 4 and R 5 are the same or different and are alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, aryl, aralkyl of 7 to 11 carbon atoms, or when two or three of R 3 , R 4 , and R 5 are taken together to form quinuclidino, pyrrolidino, piperidino, or morpholino; n is 1 to 8; and X is a pharmaceutically acceptable anion; and a negatively charged co-lipid.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 115 words
A double coated liposome complex, comprising: a polyanion; a lipid of Formula I ##STR8## or an optical isomer thereof wherein R 1 and R 2 are the same or different and are an alkyl or alkenyl group of 6 to 24 carbon atoms; R 3 , R 4 and R 5 are the same or different and are alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, aryl, aralkyl of 7 to 11 carbon atoms, or when two or three of R 3 , R 4 , and R 5 are taken together to form quinuclidino, pyrrolidino, piperidino, or morpholino; n is 1 to 8; and X is a pharmaceutically acceptable anion; and a negatively charged co-lipid.
Claim 3
Independent Claim 146 words
A method for making a double coated liposome complex, comprising the steps of: forming a liposome from a positively charged lipid of Formula I ##STR9## or an optical isomer thereof wherein R 1 and R 2 are the same or different and are an alkyl or alkenyl group of 6 to 24 carbon atoms; R 3 , R 4 and R 5 are the same or different and are alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, aryl, aralkyl of 7 to 11 carbon atoms, or when two or three of R 3 , R 4 , and R 5 are taken together to form quinuclidino, pyrrolidino, piperidino, or morpholino; n is 1 to 8; and X is a pharmaceutically acceptable anion; and contacting the liposome with a polyanion to obtain a polyanion-lipid complex; and contacting the polyanion-lipid complex with an excess of a negatively charged lipid.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 146 words
A method for making a double coated liposome complex, comprising the steps of: forming a liposome from a positively charged lipid of Formula I ##STR9## or an optical isomer thereof wherein R 1 and R 2 are the same or different and are an alkyl or alkenyl group of 6 to 24 carbon atoms; R 3 , R 4 and R 5 are the same or different and are alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, aryl, aralkyl of 7 to 11 carbon atoms, or when two or three of R 3 , R 4 , and R 5 are taken together to form quinuclidino, pyrrolidino, piperidino, or morpholino; n is 1 to 8; and X is a pharmaceutically acceptable anion; and contacting the liposome with a polyanion to obtain a polyanion-lipid complex; and contacting the polyanion-lipid complex with an excess of a negatively charged lipid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 50 words
The double coated liposome complex of claim 1 wherein R 1 and R 2 are the same and are alkyl of 10 to 20 carbon atoms, R 3 , R 4 , and R 5 are methyl or ethyl, n is 1 to 4, and X is a halide ion.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 12 words
The double coated liposome complex of claim 2 wherein n is 1.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 23 words
The double coated liposome complex of claim 4 wherein the lipid of Formula I is (±) N-(2,3-di-(9-(Z)-octadecenyloxy))-prop-1-yl-N,N,N-trimethylammonium chloride or an optical isomer thereof.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 54 words
The method for making a double coated liposome complex of claim 2 wherein R 1 and R 2 are the same and are alkyl of 10 to 20 carbon atoms, R 3 , R 4 , and R 5 are methyl or ethyl, n is 1 to 4, and X is a halide ion.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method for making a double coated liposome complex of claim 6 wherein n is 1.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method for making a double coated liposome complex of claim 7 wherein the lipid of Formula I is (±) N-(2,3-di-(9-(Z)-octa-decenyloxy))-prop-1-yl-N,N,N-trimethylammonium chloride or an optical isomer thereof.
