Abstract
Unsaturated aminodicarboxylic acid derivatives of formula I ##STR1## wherein A is a divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon radical containing 2 carbon atoms and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each independently of the other free or esterified carboxyl groups, and salts thereof, have a pronounced and selective antagonistic action against N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA)-sensitive excitatory amino acid receptors. These compounds are prepared, for example, by converting, in a formula of formula II ##STR2## wherein Z.sub.1 and Z.sub.2 are hydroxy or protected hydroxy and Z.sub.3 is protected amino, Z.sub.3 into amino and, if present, converting protected hydroxyl groups Z.sub.1 and/or Z.sub.2 into hydroxy and, if desired, converting a resultant compound into another compound of formula I, resolving a resultant mixture of isomers into the individual components and separating the desired preferred isomer and/or converting a resultant free compound into a salt or a resultant salt into the corresponding free compound.
