la7~3~7 This invention relates to benzoylpiperidylalkylindoles and related compounds possessing tranquilizing properties and to a process for the preparation thereof. Additionally, some compounds of the invention also demonstrate anti-hypertensive and analgesic properties.
To the best of our knowledge, the compounds of the present invention have not heretofore been described.
Indoles exhibiting action on the cardiovascular system are mentioned in United States Patent 3,527,761 (1970). United States Patents 3,188,313 (1965) and 3,217,011 (1965) ' describe 1-(1,2 and 3-indolyl)-lower piperazine derivatives and 1-(indolylglyoxalyl)piperidines, respectively as having important biological activity. Additionally, United States Patent 3,821,387 (1974) describes 3-(omega-substituted alkyl)-indoles as being useful in the treatment of Parkinsonism.
However, the compounds of the present invention have substantial structural differences with respect to the prior art.

Acids useful for preparing the acid addition salts of the invention include inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, nitric, phosphoric and perchloric acids, as well as organic acids such as tartaric, citric, acetic, succinic, maleic, fumaric and oxalic acids.
The compounds of the invention are prepared by either of the two sequences of reactions described below wherein R, R1, R2, R3, R4 and n are as defined earlier. The starting compounds, the 4~xnzoyl-piperidines, are prepared from N-acetylisonipecotic acid or from 1-acetylisonipecotamide by the methods described by Robert L. Duncan, Jr. et al., J. Med. Chem. 1, 1, (1970~.
The 4-(hydroxybenzoyl)piperidines are prepared by a somewhat different method. The N-acetyli~nipecotic acid chloride is reacted with an alkoxy substituted benzene under Friedel-Crafts condition to give a 1-acetyl-4-(alkoxybenzoyl)-piperidine. The reaction of this piperidine with hydrogen bromide produces hydrolysis of the acetyl group and dealkylation of the alkoxy group, giving a corresponding 4-(hydroxybenzoyl)piperidine.
Additionally, a benzoylpiperidine can be prepared ` by the three step method outlined below.
