They are preferably topically applied to the virus-affected areas of the body in the form of solutions, ointments, powders, sprays, or the like which contain between about 0.5% and about 50% thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1) Field of the invention The present invention relates to new and valuable uracil compounds and more particularly to virostatically effective S-ethyl uracil compounds, to a process of their manufacture, to pharmaceutical compositions containing same, and to a method of using same in the therapy of virus infections.
(2) Description of the prior art -alkyl substituted uracil compounds are known (M. Muraoka, A. Takada, and T. Ueda Keio J. Med., vol. 11 (1962) page 95; see Chem. Abstracts, vol. 57 (1962), page 171921)). These compounds were found to be virostatically ineffective. 1,5-disubstituted uracil compounds have also no virostatic activity.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is one object of the present invention to provide highly virostatically effective compounds of the uracil group which are characterized by being substituted in 3- position or, respectively, in 3-, and 4-position and may be substituted in l-position and which have ethyl in 5- position.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a simple and effective process of producing such substituted S-ethyl uracil compounds.
A further object of the present invention is to provide virostatically effective compositions containing such substituted S-ethyl uracil compounds as active ingredients.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a method of treating patients affected by virus infections with such disubstituted S-ethyl uracil compounds.
Other objects of the present invention and advantageous features thereof will become apparent as the description proceeds.
In principle the virostatically effective S-ethyl uracil compounds according to the present invention are compounds of the following Formula I:

R indicates straight chain or branched alkenyl with 3 to 6 carbon atoms, preferably allyl or crotyl; and
X indicates hydrogen or halogen, preferably chlorine.
A preferred process of producing such compounds comprises reacting S-ethyl uracil compounds of Formula II 0 II o wherein R and X represent the same substituents as indicated above, with an alkenyl halogenide, such as al1ylbromide, in the presence of a basic agent capable of binding acids, for instance, potassium carbonate, in a suitable solvent or solvent mixture or even without solvent whereby the alkenyl halogenide serves as solvent.

Care is taken that moisture is excluded during the reaction. After cooling, the reaction mixture is filtered to remove solid matter. The mixture of solvents and excess allylbromide is distilled off in a vacuum and the residue is subjected to fractional distillation in a vacuum. The resulting 1,5-diethyl-3-allyl-4-chloro uracil has a boiling point of -120" C./O.1 mm.

The composition containing the above mentioned substituted S-ethyl uracil compounds according to the present invention are useful for topical application to the virus-affected parts of the human body. They may be applied not only to the skin of the patient but also to mucous membranes, such as the mucous membranes of the mouth and of the genital organs.
UTILITY The virostatic activity of the substituted S-ethyl uracil compounds according to the present invention has been demonstrated in vitro in tissue cultures and in vivo on the rabbits eye according to the method of Kaufman et al. Arch. Ophthalm., vol. 67 (1962), page 583. These tests have shown that said compounds are highly effective against DNA-viruses such as herpes, vaccinia, varicella virus as well as against RNA-viruses, such as foot-andmouth-disease, Sindbis virus and others.
Clinical tests have been carried out especially with 1,5-diethyl-3-allyl-4-chloro uracil which was used in herpes diseases of the skin and the mucosa. The following Table II shows the results achieved by a treatment:
(a) with the composition according to Example 6, (b) with the composition according to Example 7, and (c) with the composition according to Example 8.
The preparations of these examples were applied externally by means of a swab stick to the respective parts of the body in the beginning of the treatment five times daily and later once to five times daily for a total period of from one day to five days. It may be mentioned that only patients who were suffering for more than three years from such herpes infections were treated with the preparations according to the present invention.
