A mixture of 126.4 g (0.72 mole) of diphenylmethylamin~
and 100 g (o.66 mole) of 3-bromo-1,2-ep~xybutane in 300 ml o~ methanol was stirred while being protected from light for 96 hr, then heated at reflux for ~0 hr as the color changed from pale yellow to deep amber. A sample was assayed by lH-nmr and showed 3 methyl doublets. A fine beige precipitate was removed by filtration (diphenylmethylamine hydrobromide) and the filtrate concentrated on a rotary evap~rator to yield 174.6 g of crude oil. A 1.5 sample was neutralized and placed on a 4 mm ~hick plate of a Chromatotron~ and ~luted with 10~ ethyl acetate-toluene.
A total of sixteen fractions were collected which consisted f 6 distinct spots by TLC The major component separated was 700 mg and appeared to be the trans isomer. This sample was converted to the oxalate salt. The main concen-trate was converted to the free ba~e with ammonium hydroxide and extracted into toluene which was dried over magnesium ~ulfate a~d concentrated. The reaction residue was dissolved in methanol and treated with 58 g o~ oxalic acid, heated to give a homogenous solution and allowed to cool after seeding with a sample of the ~rans oxalate salt. Filtration yielded 62 g of white granular product, m.p. 147-148.5C. A second ~rop of 26 g was also obtained.
The lH-nmr ~pectrum showed only a ~ingle CH9 doublet with j (CH3-H) o~ 6.1 Hz which is consistent with the trans compound.* Total yield o~ title compound was 88 g (38.80 .

Preparation 2 l-(DiphenylmethYl)-~-azetidinol methanesulfonate (ester) hYdrochloride Cl:l~
A mixture of 60.02 g (0.22 mole) of l-diphenylmethyl-3-a~etidinol hydrochloride and 48.94 g (o.484 mole) of triethylamine in 800 ml o~ toluene was stirred for 24 hr, then cooled to 5C. in an ice bath and treated with 27.7 g (0.24 mole) of methanesulfonyl chloride added at a rate which maintained the temperature below 15C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 3 hr and filtered to remove the triethylamine hydro~hloride. The filtrate was treated with 40 g (0~242 mole) of 4-trifluoromethylphenol followed by 19.35 g (o.484 mole) of sodium hydroxide and 1.6 g (0.005 mole) o~ tetrabutylammonium bromide in 60 ml of water. .
The reac'ion mixture was stirred rapidly at reflux for 18 hrs, then atirred for 72 hr while it cooled to an~bient temperature.
Th~ reaction mixture was transferred to a separatory ~unnel and washed with 4 x 200 ml of water (emulsion). The toluene phase was dried over magnesium sulfate and concen-trated in vacuo to 82 g of oil. This residue was dissolved in 200 ml of isopropyl alcohol and treated with 20 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid. Upon cooling, a solid ~eparated and was removed by filtration (5.1 g). The $iltrate wa~ treated with isopropyl ether to give an oil which W2S worked up later. The solid was identified by spectral ~nalysis a~ the methylsul~onate of the starting azetidinol.

Pharmaceutical comp~sitions The methods of treating anxiety, muscle tension, and spasticity in mammals is best carried out by administering as active ingredients in a pharmaceutical composition at least one of the comp~unds of Formula I in associ2tion with a p~armaceutical carrier or excipient. Ihe compounds are thu6 presented in a therapeutic composition ~uitable for oral, rectal, parenteral, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, or intravenous admini~tration. Thus, for example, the composition for oral administration can take the form of elixirs, capsules, tablets, or coated tablets containing carriers conveniently used in the pharmaceutical axt. Suitable tableting excipients include lactose, potato, and maize starches, talc, gelatin, stearic and ~ilicic acids, magnesium stearate and polyvinyl pyrrolidone.
For parenteral administration, the carrier can be comprised o~ a sterile parenterally acceptable li~uid;
e.g., water or arachis oil contained in ampoules.
In compositions for rectal administration, the carrier can be comprised of a suppo~itory ba~e, e.g., cocoa butter or glyceride.
Advantageously, the compositions are formulated as dosage units, each unit being adapted to supply a fixed do~e of active ingredients. Tablets, coated tablets, capsules, ampoules and suppositories are examples of preferred dosage forms according to the invention. It is only necessary that the active ingredient constitute an effective amount; i.e., such that a suitable effective dosage will be consistent with the dosage form employed.
The exact individual dc~ages as well as daily dosages will, of course, be determined according to standard medical principles under the direction of a physician or veterinarian.
Testing ~uggests that rompound~ of Formula I will be efective in man or muscle relaxant effect~ ~t ~bout 4-40 mg~kg body weight per day. Illustratively, one compound, nam~ly, ~-methyl-3-~3-(trifluorome$hyl3phencxy~ azetidine carb3xamide ~Example 41), w~ found to be ~out 5 tïmes a~
3~Z~274 ~ 53 ~ 66197-177 p~ent a~ Methocarbamol as a muscle relaxant.
The suggested regimen, ~or example, for the compound of Example4l s a muscle relaxant appears to be about lO mg~kg/
day or for a 75 kg individual ~bout a unit do~age of 250 mg, t.i.d.
E~fective daily dosages of compounds of Formula I as antianxiety agents are projected to be about l-lO mg ~g/day body weight based on animal data.
The pharmaceutical compositions according to khe present invention in the ready-to-use dosage unit form, in practical use, may be put into containers which bear instructions that the composition should be used for treating muscle tension, muscle spasticity and anxiety of animals including humans.
