R3 represents hydrogen or lower alkyl, whereby R2 and R3 as lower alkyl can be bound directly, or in β- or γ-position also by way of oxygen, sulphur or the imino radical or a lower alkylimino radical, and the rings A and B independently of each other can be unsubstituted or substituted.
The invention relates also to the addition salts of the triazole derivatives of the general formula I with inorganic and organic acids.
In the triazole derivatives of the general formula I,
R^ as lower alkyl is, e.g., ethyl, propyl, butyl, isobutyl, pentyl, isopentyl, neopentyl (2,2-di.uiethylpropyl), hexyl or isohexyl and, in particular, methyl; as esterified hydroxymethyl it is, e.g., lower alkanoyloxymethyl such as formyloxymethyl, propionyloxymethyl, butyryloxymethyl, pivaloyloxymethyl and, in particular, acetoxymethyl; and as etherified hydroxymethyl it is, e.g., loweralkoxymethyl such as methoxy-, ethoxy-, propoxy-, isopropoxy-, butoxy-, isobutoxy-, sec.buto>y-, pentyloxy-, isopentyloxy-, neopentyloxy-, hexyloxy- or isohexyloxymethyl. As functionally modified carboxy, R^ is, e.g., esterified carboxy, especially lower alkoxycarbonyl such as propoxycarbonyl·, butoxycarbonyl, isobutyloxycarbonyl,
- 3 41550 pentyloxyearbonyl, isopentyloxycarbonyl, hexyloxycarbonyl and, in particular, methoxycarbonyl or ethoxycarbonyl; also cyano and, optionally, mono- or disubstituted carbamoyl. Substituents of carbamoyl groups as well as of aminomethyl groups are on the one hand, in particular, monovalent hydrocarbon radicals having at most 10 carbon atoms, such as lower alkyl, e.g. propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, sec.butyl, pentyl, isopentyl, neopentyl, hexyl or heptyl, and especially methyl or ethyl, Or araliphatie hydrocarbon radicals having 7 to 10 carbon atoms, e.g. benzyl, phenethyl, α-, ο-, m- or p-methylbenzyl, 3-phenylpropyl, 2-phenylpropyl, a-methylphenethyl, 4-phenylbutyl or p-isopropylbenzyl; and on the other hand two lower alkyl radicals bound analogously to the definition for Ι<2 and 1<3 either directly or in the p- or 7-position also by way of oxygen, sulphur, the imino radical or a lower alkylimino radical, which.lower alkyl radicals form together with the adjacent nitrogen atoms, e.g., the 1-aziridinyl, 1-azetidinyl,
1-pyrrolidinyl, piperidino, hexahydro-lH-azopin-l-yl, morpholino, thiomorpholino, 1-pipera.zinyl. or hexahydro-1111,4-diazepin-l-yl group, whereby the two lastmentioned groups may be. substituted in the 4-position,
i.e. in the imino group, e.g., by methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl or isobutyl, and all aforementioned cyclic groups on carbon atoms also by ethyl, propyl or, in particular, methyl.
The lower alkyl and the radical Rg as lower alkyl are, for example, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, sec.butyl, pentyl, isopentyl, neopentyl, hexyl or heptyl, and particularly methyl or ethyl.
Bound together in the above-defined manner, R2and R3 together with the adjacent nitrogen atom form, for example, the cyclic groups mentioned above in connection with the meaning of R^, especially 1-pyrrolidinyl, piperidino or morpholino.

The rings A and B can each on its own be repeatedly substituted: but ring A is preferably moncsubstituted and ring B preferably unsubstituted or disubstituted and, in particular, monosubstituted. The substituents are', for example, halogen up to atomic number 35, trifiuoromethyi, nitro, lower alkyl or lower alkoxy. A substituent of the ring A is preferably in the 4-position. with respect to the triazole ring, and the substituent(s) of the ring B in the one (or in both) ortho-position(s) with respect to the carbonyl group. Halogen atoms as substituents of the rings A and B are fluorine, chlorine or bromine atoms; lower alkyl is, for example, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, tert,butyl, pentyl, isopentyl, neopentyl., tert.pentyl, hexyl, or heptyl; and lower alkoxy is, for example, methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, isopropoxy, butoxy, isobutoxy, pentyloxy, isopentyloxy, hexyloxy or heptyloxy.

The ring B is preferably unsubstituted, or substituted by fluorine, chlorine, bromine or trifluoromethyl in any position, particularly, however, by fluorine or chlorine in the o-position.
The triazole derivatives of the general formula I and their addition salts with inorganic and organic acids possess valuable pharmacological properties. They have, in particular, an anticonvulsive action, as can be verified, for example, on the mouse in the pentetrazole convulsion test after administration of oral doses of from about 0.3 mg/kg, as well as in the strychnine convulsion test and in the electroshock test after administration in each case of oral doses of from about 1 mg/kg, for example of
1-12-(o-chlorobenzoyl)-4-chlorophenyl]-5-(morpholinomethyl)-lH-l,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide or N,N-dimethyl1-[2-(o-fluorobenzoyl)-4-chlorophenyl] -5- [(dimethylamino)methyl]-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide. Furthermore, the triazole derivatives of the general formula I and their acid addition salts also have a moderate central depressant action. The; mentioned properties, together with others that can be demonstrated by selected standard tests (see W. Theobald and H.A. Kunz, ArzneimitteLforsch. 13,
122 (1963) as well as W. Theobald et al., Arzneimittelforsch. 17, 561 (1967)], characterise the triazole derivatives of the general formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts with inorganic and organic acids as being active substances for anticoivulsants and tranquillisers which are usable for the treatment of epilepsy and of conditions of tension and agitation.
Various triazole derivatives of the general formula I are moreover suitable as intermediates for the production
- 7 41550 of further compounds embraced by this general formula.
The invention relates, in particular, to triazole derivatives of the general formula I in which Rp R^ and R^ have the meanings given under this formula, ring A is substituted in the 4-position with respect to the triazole ring by halogen up to atomic number 35, especially by chlorine, or by nitro or trifluoromethyl, and ring B is unsubstituted, or substituted in any position by halogen up to atomic number 35 or by trifluoromethyl, preferably however by fluorine or chlorine in the orthoposition.

If there is used as reactant, instead of the compound of the general formula Ill, an alkali metal derivative of such a compound, e.g. a sodium, lithium or potassium derivative, then as solvent there are preferably use.d hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene or xylene, ethereal liquids such as 1,2-dimethoxyethane, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, acid amides such as dimethylformamide or Ν,Ν,Ν1,N1,Nn,N-hexamethyl-phosphoric acid triamide, or sulphoxides such as dimethylsulphoxide.

The reaction temperature is preferably between 0° and 12O''C, or it is the boiling temperature of the reaction medium employed.

In the splitting of the diazepine ring according to Process b) by means of formaldehyde and formic acid, the result is not only that the amino group previously belonging to the diazepine ring is dimethylated, but also that an optionally present aminomethyl and monosubstituted aminomethyl R^ is di- and monomethylated, respectively. The splitting according to the process is performed at elevated temperature, preferably at about 80°C up to the boiling temperature of the reaction mixture. Although not absolutely necessary with respect to the overall balance of the reaction, an appreciable content of water in the reaction mixture is advantageous; it is therefore possible to use either aqueous, e.g., 30 to 36% formaldehyde solution or aqueous, e.g,, 85 to 95% formic acid. The formaldehyde is preferably used in a considerable excess, e.g. two to five times the theoretical amount of 2 to 4 moles per mole of starting material of the general formula IV, and the formic acid in an even greater excess, e.g. two to five times the molar amount relative to the formaldehyde. Of the starting materials of the general formula IV, those with hydrogen, carboxy or lower alkoxycarbonyl as are described in the German 'Offenlegungsschriften' Nos. 2,159,527 and 2,215,943, those with lower alkyl or hydrogen as R., in the German - 22 - 1 'Offenlegungsschriften' Nos. 2,055,889 and 2,159,527, those with optionally mono- or disubstituted aminomethyl or with hydroxymethyl as R^ in the German 1Offenlegungsschrift' No. 2,234,652, and those with optionally monoor disubstituted carbamoyl or with formyl as in the German Offenlegungsschrift' No. 2,304,307. Further compounds of the general formula IV can be produced by methods analogous to those described in the aforementioned Offenlegungsschriften'.
The oxidation according to Process c) is performed, for example, by means of a higher metal oxide such as chromium trioxide, e.g. dissolved in acetic acid, or dissolved in dilute sulphuric acid as oxidation solulion according to Jones and gradually added to the solution of the starting material in acetone, at a temperature of between about 0° and 60°C, preferably at 2O-3O°C; or with manganese dioxide, particularly in the activated form described by J. Attenburrow et al., J.Chem. Soc.
1.952, 1104, in an inert organic solvent, such as benzene or dioxane, at temperatures of between room temperature and the boiling temperature of the reaction medium.
Starting materials of the general formula V are obtained ,
- 23 41550 for example, by reduction of reactive esters of compounds of the general formula II, especially chlorides, with an alkali metal borohydride, such as sodium borohydride, in a lower alkanol such as methanol, or in some other suitable organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, at low temperatures, preferably between about -20°C and 0°C, and reaction of the resulting reduction products with compounds of the general formula III in a manner analogous to that in Process a).
Furthermore, starting materials of the general formula V can be obtained, e.g., also by reduction of compounds of the general formula I, whereby a suitable reduction process or catalytic hydrogenation, e.g. in the presence of Raney nickel or of a noble metal catalyst, such as palladium on charcoal or on an alkaline-earth metal carbonate, can be selected in the case where groups R^ that are in themselves reducible are to be retained intact.
The oxidation according to c), together with the preceding reduction, is however more advantageously applied to such compounds of the general formula I which contain a group R^ the reduction of which is desired but not possible, or only possible with difficulty, without the simultaneous reduction of the carbonyl group situated between the rings A and B. For example, a compound of the general formul.it I in which Rg is disubstituted carbamoyl can be reduced by means of a complex hydride, such as lithium aluminium hydride, in an ethereal solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, to a compound of the general formula V in which Rg is the corresponding disubstituted aminomethyl.
In addition, it is possible in an analogous manner to reduce a compound of the general formula I wherein Rg is lower alkoxycarbonyl to a compound of the general formula V wherein Rg is hydroxymethyl. If the reduction product is thereupon directly oxidised, then the hydroxymethyl group Rj is attacked before the hydroxymethylene group, and there is firstly formed, depending, on the oxidising agent used, a formyl group or carboxyl group Rg, and immediaLely afterwards there occurs in the same l’J operation the oxidation of Lhe hydroxymethyl’ne group to the carbonyl group. Since compounds of the general formula I having a carboxy group Rg are more easily obtainable in another manner,the oxidiatiqn of a hydroxymethyl group Rg to a formyl group in an analogous manner to that of Process h), e.g. by means of the above-mentioned oxidation solution according to Jones, in the same operation as the oxidation of the hydroxymethylene group according to Process c) is of practical importance. Alternatively, it is possible in - 25 41550 an above-mentioned reduction product to also firstly selectively acylate, e.g. acetylate, the hydroxymethyl group Rp to then carry out oxidation according to c) and, optionally, to subsequently again liberate the hydroxymethyl group according to Process g).
Cyclisation of compounds of the general formula VI according to d) is performed, e.g., in a diluted aqueous or aqueous-organic alkali hydroxide solution, especially sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide solution, as a basic medium, at room temperature or at moderately elevated temperatures up to the boiling temperature of the reaction medium. The organic solvent used is, e.g., dioxane or a lower alkanol such as ethanol. If mild reaction conditions are chosen, e.g. if the at most double-molar amount, relative to the compound of the general formula VI, of alkali hydroxide is allowed to react at room temperature, and the reaction mixture is neutralised before processing, then as the main product there is obtained a triazole derivative of the general formula I in which is the lower alkoxy carbonyl corresponding to the group R^; whilst under less mild conditions the corresponding carboxylic acid, i.e. the compound of the general formula I having carboxy as Rn, is obtained.
- 26 - 1
Cyclisation can also be performed by means of an aqueousorganic ammonia solution as basic medium, e.g. in a mixture of concentrated aqueous ammonia and dimethylformamide .
Starting materials of the general formula VI are obtained, for example, by reaction of the analogous compounds described, as intermediates, e.g., in the German 'Offenlegungsschriftcn' Nos. 2,159,527, 2,215,943 and 2,304,307, which compounds contain a halogen atom, especially a chlorine atom, instead of the disubstituted amino group, with a compound of the previously given general formula III in which Ι<£ and I<3 have the meanings defined there, or with an alkali metal derivative thereof, analogously to Process a) for the production of the triazole derivatives of the general, formula I. The simultaneous occurrence of an aminolysis of the carboxylic acid ester groups is avoided if necessary in the case of reactions with primary or secondary amines of the general formula III havinglower radicals R2 and R^ by employing mild reaction conditions and/or only a slight excess of such amines, or by use of secondary amines in the form of their alkali metal derivatives.
Process e) is performed by reacting, for example, a - 27 -’ carboxylic acid of the general formula I e with a compound of the general formula VII in the presence of a carbodiimide, such as dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide, in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran. Furthermore, a carboxylic acid of the general formula I e can be allowed to react with a lower alkylisocyanate or alkylthiocyanate — as reactive functional derivative of a compound of the general formula VII — and the immediate reaction product heated until evolution of carbon dioxide or carbon oxysulphide ceases .
Suitable reactive functional derivatives of carboxylic acids of the general formula I e are, for example, lower alkyl esters thereof, which can be reacted with compounds of the general formula VII in some cases even at room temperature or, where necessary, with heating and, if required, in a closed vessel, depending on the reactivity and boiling temperature of the employed compound of the general formula VII. As the reaction medium in this case it is possible to use, e.g., a lower alkanol sqch as methanol or ethanol, or another inert organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, optionally together with an excess of the compound to be reacted of the general formula VII.
- 28 41550
Furl her suitable reactive functional derivatives ol carboxy I i.e acids ol Llie general formula 1 e are halides thereof, especially chlorides, particularly in the form of their hydrohalides, such as hydrochlorides.
These are produced, preferably directly before the subsequent reaction with the compounds of the general formula VII from the corresponding free carboxylic acids and suitable.
acid halides such as thionyl chloride, oxalyl chloride or phosphorus tribromide, and further reacted without purification. The carboxylic acid halides or their hydrohalides are reacted with compounds of the general formula VII, preferably in the presence of the at least equivalent or at least double-equivalent amount of an acid-binding agent, e.g. of a strong tertiary organic base such as triethylamine, N-ethyl-diisopropylamine, pyridine or s-collidine, which in excess can also serve as reaction medium, or in the presence of a corresponding excess of the compound of the general formula VII to be reacted, in the presence or absence of an inert organic solvent, such as dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, benzene or dimethylformamidc, at a temperature of beLween about 0C and
100C, or at the boiling temperature of the reaction medium in the case where this is lower. It is possible - 29 41550 under analogous reaction conditions to react also mixed anhydrides of carboxylic acids of the general formula I e, especially the mixed anhydrides with carbonic acid semi-esters obtainable, e.g., by reaction of alkali metal salts of such carboxylic acids with chloroformic acid esters, preferably chloroformic acid lower alkyl
-esters, with compounds of the general formula VII.
Further suitable reactive functional derivatives of carboxylic acid esters of the general formula I e are, e.g., reactive esters such as p-nitrophenyl esters and cyanomethyl esters, which can be reacted with compounds of the general formula VII in inert organic solvents, if necessary with heating. There are reacted under the same conditions the 1-imidazolides of carboxylic acids of the general formula I e with compounds of the general formula VII.
As reactive functional derivatives of compounds of the general formula VII, there have already been mentioned lower alkylisocyanates and lower alkylisothiocyanates which are derived from compounds of the general formula
VII having a hydrogen atom as R^. The reactions of these with carboxylic acids of the general formula I e can be performed in the presence or absence of an inert organic - 30 41550 solvent; having a sufficiently high boiling point or boiling range, e.g. toluene or xylene or a xylene mixture. Further reactive functional derivatives of compounds of the general formula VII having a hydrogen atom as Rg are, e.g., the N-tri-(lower alkyl)-silyl derivatives obtainable by reaction of these compounds with tri-(lower alkyl)-si'Jyl chlorides, such as trimethyJ.sllyl chloride, in inert anhydrous organic solvents . The reaction thereof with reactive functional derivatives of carboxylic acids of the general formula 1 e in inert organic solvents yields N-tri-(lower alkyl)silyl derivatives of carboxamides embraced by the general formula I, from which the desired carboxamides are liberated by decomposition with water or with lower alkanols.
Suitable functional derivatives of such compounds of the general formula VII in which neither R^ nor Rg represents hydrogen are, e.g., N-chlorocarbonyl derivatives thereof. These are reacted with salts, e.g. alkali metal salts of carboxylic acids of the general formula I e in the presence or absence of inert organic solvents, such as toluene or dimethylformamide, and the reaction mixtures are heated until, the equimolar amount of carbon - 31 41550 dioxide is liberated from the primarily formed carboxylic acid-carbamic acid-anhydrides. Likewise from compounds of the general formula VII wherein neither of the radicals R^ and Rg represents hydrogen are derived, e.g., sulphurous acid-monoalkyl estermonoamides, which yield, on reaction with carboxylic acids of the general formula I e in organic solvents, e.g. in pyridine, dioxane or dimethylformamide or in benzene, the desired carboxamides embraced by the general formula I.
Suitable reactive esters of compounds of the general formula I f are, for example, sulphonic acid esters thereof, particularly lower alkanesulphonic acid esters such as methanesulphonic acid esters, and arenesulphonic acid esters such as o- and p-toluenesulphonic acid esters, o- or p-nitrobenzenesulphonic acid esters or o- or p-chlorobenzenesulphonic acid esters. Further suitable reactive esters of compounds of the general formula I f are hydrohalic acid esters thereof, especially chlorides and bromides, as well as the iodides produced in situ therefrom. The reactions with compounds of the general formula VII or with their alkali metal derivatives can be performed analogously to Process a).
- 32 41550
The compounds of the general formula I f can be produced by various processes according to the invention, e.g. by Process b) if and are to be methyl, and particularly by Process g), and converted by methods known per se into reactive esters. A further production possibility for the organic sulphonic acid esters embraced also by the general formula VIXI of the starting materials for Process g) is given later on in the text.
In the starting materials of the general formula VIII for Process g), the acyl radical Ac is preferably the acyl radical of a carboxylic acid, of a carbonic acid semi-ester or of an organic sulphonic acid. As an acyl radical of a carboxylic acid, Ac is, e.g., lower alkanoyl such as formyl, propionyl, butyryl, isobutyryl, valeryl or pivaloyl and, in particular, acetyl, also, e.g., halogenated lower alkanoyl such as trifluoroacelyl or trichloroacetyl, or arenecarbonyl such as benzoyl, pchJorobenzoyl or p-nitrobenzoyl. As an acyl radical of a carbonic acid semi-ester, Ac is, e.g., methoxycarbonyl, ethoxycarbonyl, propoxycarbonyl, butoxycarbonyl., tert.butoxycarbonyl, phenoxycarbonyl or benzyloxycarbonyl, and as an acyl radical of an organic sulphonic acid, it is,
e.g., lower alkylsulphonyl such as methylsulphonyl, or - 33 41550 arylsulphonyl such as phenylsulphonyl, o- or p-tolylsulphonyl, o- or p-nitrophenylsulphonyl or o- or pchlorophenylsulphonyl. The solvolysis of compounds of the general formula VIII according to g) can be p erformed by methods known per se in a basic or acid medium, for example in lower-alkanolic or lower-alkanolicaqueous alkali hydroxide solutions, at room temperature up to the boiling temperature of the reaction mixture, or with aqueous or aqueous-organic mineral acids, e.g.
in dilute hydrochloric acid, to which is optionally added a water-miscible organic solvent such as dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, methanol or ethanol, at the same temperatures.
The starting materials of the general formula VIII are obtained, for example, starting from compounds of the general formula I wherein is lower alkoxycarbonyl by simultaneous reduction of this group to the hydroxymethyl group and of the carbonyl group situated between the rings A and B to the hydroxymethylene group by means of a complex hydride, such as lithium aluminium hydride, in an ethereal solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, at a temperature of between about 0° C and room temperature followed by partial acylation of the hydroxymethyl group - 34 41550 by methods known per se; and JLnally oxidation of Lhe hydroxymethylene group to the carbonyl group, analogously to the aforementioned Process c) for the production of compounds of the general formula I.
For the oxidation of triazole derivatives of the general formula I h to triazole derivatives of the general formula I having formyl as according to Process h), there are used mild selective oxidising agents, such as dimethylsulphoxide, optionally in the presence of a water-binding agent, such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and phosphoric acid, at room temperature or at moderately elevated temperatures up to about 100°C; or manganese dioxide, which is preferably activated according to J. Attenhurrow et al., J.Chem.Soc. 1952,
1104, in an inert organic solvent at a temperature of between about 50°C and the boiling temperature of the solvent, e.g. in boiling benzene. The oxidising agent employed can also be chromium trioxide, e.g. dissolved in dilute sulphuric acid as an oxidation solution according to Jones, with this oxidation solution being slowly added, preferably at between 0“C and room temperature, to the solution of the starting material in acetone. The starting materials of the general formula I h are produced
- 35 41550 for example, by the aformentioned Process g) or, if R2 and Rg are methyl, also by Process b).
Dehydration of the triazole derivatives of the general formula I i according to Process i) can be performed, by methods known per se, at room temperature or at elevated temperatures up to about 180°C. For example, there is allowed to react with a carboxamide of the general formula I i an organic or inorganic acid halide, especially a sulphonic acid halide such as p-toluenesulphonyl chloride or methanesulphonyl chloride, or a halide of an acid of trivalent or pentavalent phosphorus, such as phosphorus oxychloride, or an acid anhydride, particularly the anhydride of an inorganic oxygen acid such as phosphorus pentoxide, in an inert organic solvent such as ;·· dimethylformamide or xylene. The sulphonic acid halides, such as p-toluenesulphonyl chloride, are used preferably in an equimolar amount or in a moderate excess, optionally together with a somewhat greater excess of an acid-binding agent, especially of a tertiary organic base such as pyridine. Dehydration can for example be performed at room temperature, or if necessary at slight]/ elevated temperatures, by means of the approx. 1.5-fold molar amount of p-toluenesulphonyl chloride and the appro.:.
- 36 41550
2-fold to 3-fold molar amount of pyridine in dimethylformamide . A further example of a dehydrating agent to be mentioned is triphenylphosphine, which can be caused to react, e.g., in a halogenated hydrocarbon, such as carbon tetrachloride, with a carboxamide of the general formula I i. The starting materials of the general formula I i can be produced by a number of the aforementioned processes, particularly by Process e).
As alkali metal cyanide for Process j), there are used, for example, potassium cyanide and, in particular, sodium cyanide. By selective oxidising agents are meant those which do not under the reaction conditions attack the aldt-hyde group of Che starting material of formula I j, but which are able to oxidise the hydroxymethylene group of the intermediately formed cyanohydrin to the carbonyl group. A suitable oxidising agent is manganese dioxide, particularly that in the active form described by J.
Attenburrow et al., J.Chem.Soc. 1952, 1104. The reactions with manganese dioxide are preferably performed in isopropanol, or in another lower secondary alkanol, to which can be added a further organic solvent inert under the reaction conditions, preferably one having a good dissolving power for Liie sLarLing materials of the general - 37 41550 formula I j, such as for example dioxane, in the cold state, e.g. between -10°C and +10°C, preferably at about 0°C. Relative to the compound of the general formula I j, there is used, for example, a considerable excess of the compound of the general formula VII, and also of alkali metal cyanide, e.g. the approx. 5-fold molar amount of the latter and an even greater excess, e.g. the approx. 20-fold molar amount, of manganese dioxide, with a reaction time of 2 to 6, preferably about 4, hours.
LO The triazole derivatives of the general formula I j, used as starting materials, are produced, for example, by the aforementioned Process h), and also by the Process c) with the use of compounds of the general formula V in which Rg represents a hydroxymethyl group.
L5 The present invention relates also to such modifications of the processes mentioned under a) to j) wherein a starting material is used in the form of a salt. If the required starting materials are optically active, then both
- 38 41550
Llie racemates and the isolated antipodes can be used, or in the case of diasteriomcric compounds either mixtures of racemates or specific racemates, or likewise, isolated antipodes ean be used. Also such starting materials can, optionally, be used in the form of salts. The starting materials preferably employed for the carrying out of the reactions according to the invention are those, from which are obtained the groups of final materials to which particular reference was made at the commencement of the text.
Depending on the conditions of the process and on the starting materials the end products are obtained in the free form, or in the form, likewise included in the invention, of their acid addition salts, or in some cases in tiie form of hydrates of tho last-mentioned.
1'> The acid addiLion sails of the new compounds of the general, formula 1 can be converted in a known manner into the free bases, e.g. with basic agents, such as alkalies or ion exchangers. Alternatively, the compounds of the general formula I obtained by the process according to the invention can, optionally, be converted in the usual manner into their addition salts with inorganic or organic acids. For example, the acid desired as salt component is .
added to a solution of a compound of the general formula I - 39 41550 in an organic solvent. Solvents preferably used for the reaction are those in which the occurring salt is difficultly soluble, so that the salt can be separated by filtration. Such solvents are, for example, ethyl acetate, methanol, ether, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, acetone/ether, acetone/ethanol, methanol/ether and ethanol/ether.
It is possible to use as pharmaceutic active substances, instead of free bases, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts, i.e. salts with acids of which the anions are not toxic in the dosage amounts concerned. Moreover, it is of advantage if the salts to be used as pharmaceutical active substances readily crystallise, and are not, or only slightly, hygroscopic. For salt formation with compounds of the general formula I, it is possible to use, e.g., hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulphuric acid, phosphoric acid, methanesulphonic acid, ethanesulphonic acid, 2-hydroxyethanesulphonic acid, acetic acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, salicylic acid, phenylacetic acid, mandelic acid and embonic acid.
The new compounds can be present, depending on the choice of starting materials and working procedures,
- 40 41550 as optical antipodes or racemates or, ii they have at least two asymmetric carbon, atoms, also as mixtures of isomers (racemate mixtures). The mixtures of isomers (racemate mixtures) obtained can, by virtue of the physical-chemical differences in the constituents, be separated in a known manner into the two stereoisomeric (diastereomeric) pure racemates, e.g. by chromatography and/or fractional crystallisation.
Resulting racemates can be resolved by known methods, for example by recrystallisation from an optically active solvent, with the aid of microorganisms, or by reaction with an optically active acid forming salts with the racemic compound, and separation of the salts obtained in this manner, e.g. by virtue of their different degrees of solubility, into the diastereomr rs from which the antipodes can be liberated by the action of suitable agents. Particularly suitable optically active acids are, for example, the D- and L-forms of tartaric acid, di-otoluyltartaric acid, malic acid, mandelic acid, cnmphorsulphonic acid or quinic acid. It is of advantage to isolate the more effective of the two anti]odes .
The new compounds are administered ora1ly, rectally or parenterally. The dosage amount depends συ tho mode - 41 <1550 of administration, on the species, on the age and on the individual condition. The daily doses of the free bases or of pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof vary between 0.1 mg/kg and 3 mg/kg for warm-blooded animals. Suitable dosage units, such as dragees, tablets, suppositories or ampoules, preferably contain 0.5 - 50 mg of an active substance according to the invention.
Dosage units for oral administration contain as active substance preferably between 0.5 and 50% of a compound of the general formula I, or of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The said dosage units are produced by combination of the active substance with,
e.g., solid pulverulent carriers such as lactose, saccharose, sorbitol or mannitol; starches such as potato starch, maize starch or amylopectin, also laminaria powder or citrus pulp powder; cellulose derivatives or gelatine, optionally with the addition of lubricants, such as magnesium or calcium stearate or polyethylene glycols, to form tablets or dragee cores. The dragee cores are coated, for example, with concentrated sugarsolutions which can also contain, e.g., gum arabic, talcum and/or titanium dioxide, or with a lacquer dissolved in readily volatile organic solvents or solvent mixtures.
- 42 41550
Dyestuffs may be added to these coatings, e.g. for identification of the various dosage amounts.
Further suitable oral dosage units are hard gelatine capsules, as well as soft closed capsules made from gelatine and a softener such as glycerin. The hard gelatine capsules contain the active substance preferably as a granulate, e.g. in admixture with fillers such as maize starch, and/or lubricants such as talcum or magnesium stearate, and optionally stabilisers such as sodium metabisulphite (NagSgO^) or ascorbic acid. In soft capsules, the active substance is preferably dissolved or suspended in suitable liquids, such as in polyethylene glycols, to which likewise stabilisers may be added.
Suitable dosage units for rectal administration are,
e.g., suppositories consisting of a combination of an active substance with a suppository foundation substance.
Applicable suppository foundation substances are, e.g., natural or synthetic triglycerides, paraffin hydrocarbons, polyethylene glycols or higher alkanols. Also suitable are gelai ine rectal capsules consisting of a combination ol the act ive substance with a foundation substance.
SttiLable foundation substances are, e.g., liquid tri- 43 41S50 glycerides, polyethylene glycols or paraffin hydrocarbonsAmpoules for parenteral administration, especially intramuscular administration, preferably contain a water-soluble salt of an active substance in a concentration preferably of 0.2 - 5%, optionally together with suitable stabilisers and buffer substances, in aqueous solution.
