and their physiologically acceptable acid addition salts, such as their hydro-chlorides, possess valuable pharmacological properties. In particular, these compounds have analgesic activity.
Ths compounds o formulae (I) to ~V) and their physiologically acceptable addition salts are novel.
According to the invention, there is provided a process for the preparation of the compound of formula (IV) -:

~068'~79 In the first step of this preferred procedure, the N-oxide of 3,4-dimethylpyridine is reacted with an alkylating agent, such as dimethyl sulphate, and the methyl sulphate of l-methoxy-3,4-dimethylpyridium thus obtained is treated with an alkali metal cyanide in the presence of an inert atmosphere, preferably in an aqueous reaction medium at a temperature of from 0 to 5C for 24 hours. Extraction of the reaction mixture with chloroform provides a crude mixture of 2-cyano-3,4-dimethylpyridine and 2-cyano-4,5-dimethylpyridine (V~ from which the latter can be separated by crystallization.
In the second step, the 2-cyano-4,5-dimethylpyridine tV) is re-acted with freshly prepared 2-thienyl-lithium tobtained by the reaction o butyl lithium and thiophene). The reaction with 2-thienyl-lithium is carried out at reflux temperature in the presence of an inert atmosphere, the com-pound (V~ dissolved in an anhydsous solvent being added to an ethereal sol-ution of 2-thienyl-lithium. The reaction mixture obtained is hydrolyzed with hydrochloric acid, rendered alkaline with aqueous caustic soda, and then extracted with an organic solvent to yield 2-thienyl-t4,5-dimethyl-2-pyridyl)-ketone tIV), which is recrystallized from acetone.
;1 In the third step, the ketone tIV) is reacted with hydrazine in r a strongly basic medium, for example potassium hydroxide, and with heating ;i 20 at the reflux temperature of a high boiling point solvent, such as diethylene glycol. The resulting reaction mixture is poured on to ice and extracted with ether to give 2-t2-thenyl)-4,5-dimethyl-pyridine tIII).
In the fourth step, the compound tIII) is heated to reflux temp-erature in ~he presence of an excess of methyl iodide in an anhydTous sol-;~ vent, such as acetone or benzene. 2-t2-thenyl)-1,4,5-trimethyl-pyridinium iodide, which is unstable in air and to light, is precipitated from the re-action mixture, separated, and, without purification, dissolved in methanol and reducet with sodium borohydride, the reduction suitably being carsied out at reflux temperature for 4 hours. The sesulting reaction mixture is diluted with-water and extracted with ether to give 2-t2-thenyl)-1,4,5-
-4-. .~ .

In the final step, the compound (II) is heated in the presence of strong acid, for example 48% aqueous hydrobromic acid, suitably at 135C for 4 hours, to effect cyclization. The reaction mixture is poured into aqueous ammonium chloride solution, rendered alkaline by the addition of ammonium hydroxide, and extracted with ether to give 2,4,5-trimethyl-thieno~3,2-f]
morphan tI).
Each of the compounds tI) to tV) may, if desired, by converted in-to its acid addition salts such as its hydrochloride.
Each of the above steps forms a further aspect of the present in-vention, as does the combination of steps to produce the co~pound (I).
According to a further aspect of the present invention, we provide a pharmaceutical composition which comprises at least one compound according to the invention and an inert, physiologically acceptable carrier.
