~ ~ Formula I

(cH~)3~RlRz wherein Rl and R~ are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen or methyl, X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen~
chlorine, bromine or fluorine, and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof.
Compounds wherein Rl and R~ are both hydrQgen or one is methyl and one is hydrogen are novel.
Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts are those salts which are physiologically compatible, such salts being formed either by strong o~ weak. acids. Repre-sentative of strong acids are hydrochloric, sulfuric and phosphoric acids. Representative of wea~ acids are fumaric, maleic, succinic, oxalic, cyclohexamic, and the like.
For the purpose of demonstrating antidepressant utility for the compounds of Formula I, the procedure given by Englehardt, E. L., et al., J. Med. Chem. 11(2): 325 (1968) which has been indicative in the past of use~ulness of compounds for treating human depression was used as follows: 20 mg ~g of the compound to be tested was adminis tered to five adult female mice (ICR-DU~ strain)~ intra-peritoneally,30 minutes prior to the administration of a ptotic dose (32 mg ~ g, I.P.) of tetrabenazine (as the methane sulfonate salt). l'hirty minutes later, the presence or absence of complete eyelid closure (ptosis) was assessed in each animal. An ED50 (Median Effective Dose) may be established for each tested compourld in blocking -tetra-benaz-ine induced depression in mice, ~ollowing the procedure given by Litchfield et al.~ J. Pharmacol. E~p. Therap. ~6:

Example l; namely, 5-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-11-phenyl~5H-dibenzo~b,e~l,4]diazepine.
It is therefore an object to provide a method of treating depr~ssion and pha~naceutical cornpositions therefor .
Additional objects and advantayes of the present invention will be apparent to one skilled in the art and others will become apparent from the following description of the best mode of carrying out th~ present invention and from the appended claims.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTIO~
In the method of this invention the usual dosage forms f active substance comprised of the active ingredient of Formula I with a suitable pharmaceutical carrier to provide solutions, syrups, elixirs, tablets, capsules, suppositories, powders, and the like are employed.
The compounds of Formula I wherein the 5-position is substituted by the ~-dimethylaminopropyl radical are prepared by cyclodehydration of the M-(3-dimethylamino-propyl)-o-benzamido-diphenylamines as in ~ritish Patent 907,645 using a dehydrating-condensation catalyst, for example, phosphorus pentoxide or oxyhalogenides of phos-phorus, preferably the latter, in a suitable solvent e.g.,1,1,2,2-tetrachloro~thane. ~he equation iso H POCl3 ~ X

The starting benzamido compounds II (IIa and IIb~
are prepared by a modi~ication of the procedure o British Patent 9079646. Ortho-nitro-diphenylamine is first reductively alkylated with a solution of 3-chloropropyl dimethylamine or 3~ phthalimido)-1-chloropropane and following this the nitro moiety is reduced with hydroyen over palladium on carbon to give the corresponding ortho amino compound. The amino radical in the ortho position is then reacted with benzoyl halide or a substituted benzoyl halide. The e~uation is as follows:

To a solution of 15.5 g (0.0575 mole) of N-(3-dimethyl-aminopropyl)-o-aminodiphenylamine in 100 ml of pyridine cooled to about 5 C. under nitrogen atmosphere was added 17.8 g (o.o6~ mole) of benzoyl chloride. A small amount of benzene was used to wash the remaining benzoyl chloride into the reaction vessel. The mixture was stirred for 1 hr and the vessel stoppered and placed in the refrigerator over the weekend. The solvent was then evaporated under reduced pressure. The residual oil was dissolved in 100 ml of methylene chloride and the solution washed once with 150 ml of 3 N sodium hydroxide and three times with 250 ml of water.
The methylene chloride layer was dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated under reduced pressure. Residual pyridin~ was then removed under high vacuum (0.2 mm Hg) over night. Weight of the residual oil, the free base, was 24-9 g-~ 410 Oxalate Salt - To a hot ~olution of 4.0 g of the free base in isopropyl alcohol was added 1.35 y (0.0107 mole) of oxalic acid dihydrate.

A stirred mixture of 18.9 g (0.05 mole) of N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-o-benzamidodiphenylamine and 32.19 g (0.2 mole) oE phosphorus oxychloride in 50 ml of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane was heated at ]50C. under nitroyen atmosphere for 1.5 hr. The mixture was cooled somewhat and poured over approximately 1000 ml of crushed ice and then diluted with enough water for a final volume of 1000 ml. The aqueous suspension was extracted twice with methylene chloride and the methylene chloride layer dis-carded. The aqueous layer was basified with 3 N sodium hydroxide and extracted with three - 250 ml portions of methylene chloride. These three methylene chloride washes were combined, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated under reduced pressure to give a residual oil weighing 13.8 g, the free base of the title compound. The oil was dissolved in hot isopropyl alcohol and reacted with 4.5 g (0.039 mole) of fumaric acid. The fumarate salt was collected by filtration, yielding 13 g when dried, m.p.

The hydrocllloride salt of 5~(3-aminopropyl)-1]-pherlyl-5H-dibenzoi;b,e][1,4~diazepine is converted to the free base by partitioning between dilute sodium hydroxide and methylene chloride, drying and concentrating the methylene chloride layer to drynessJadding dry benzene and again concentrating to drive off the benzene. The xesulting free base is dissolved in a large excess of freshly distilled triethyl-orthoformate with refluxing for several hours. The mixtureis concentrated in vacuo, ethanol is added and the mixture concentrated again. The resulting imidate is dissolved in ethanol and sod:ium borohydride is added with stirring at 15-20 C. until thin-layer chromatography indicates the absence of substantial amount of starting material. The mixture is cooled and gradually flooded with water followed by extraction with ethylacetate. The ethylacetate layer is washed to neutrality and salted, filtered and evaporated.
Crude free base is isolated by column chrom~tography ~nd reacted with etherea1 hydrogen chloride and recryst~llized to give the title compound.

e.g., water or a parentexally acceptable oil; e.g., arachis oil contained in ampules.
Although very small quantities of the active materials of the present invention are effective when minor therapy is involved or in cases of administration to subjects having a relatively low body weight, unit dosages are usually from five milligrams or above and preferably 10, 25, 50, or 100 milligrams ox even higher, preferably administered three or four times per day, depending, of course, upon the emergency of the situation~ the compound used, and the particular result desired. 'rwenty-five to 200 milligrams appears optimum per unit dose or usual broader ranges appear to be about 10 to 500 milligrams per unit dose. Daily dosages usually required should range from about 0.5 to about 20 mg ~g/day, preferably 0.5 to 10 mg ~g. The active ingredients of the invention may be combined wikh other pharmacologically active agents as stated above. It is only necessary that the active ingredient constitute an effective amount, i.e., such that a suitable effective dosage will be obtained consistent with the dosaye form employed. ObviouslyJ
~5 several unit dosage forms may be administered at about the same time. The exact individual dosages as well as daily dosages will, o~ cours4, be demonstrated according to ~10 ~tandard medlc~ rinciples un~P~r the direction o a physic: ian or vete:rinarian.
