4 Claims (Cl..260-268 )J This .invention relates-.-tonew organic com.-
pounds. More particularly, it relates to l-piperazyl-i methylthioxanthones and their method of preparation.
The compounds of the present, invention may be: illustrated by the following EStIU'QtHI'BJl formula:
Thereaction is {preferably carried out in: a hydrocarbon solvent such as toluene, benzene, xylene, and the like. A desirable methodis one in which. the intermediates are heatedin a solvent at refluxing-temperatures for a period of from 4 to Zi'hours. In general the preferred temperature maybe from to 150 C.
The products of the present invention are ac.- tive against schistosomiasis. The activity of the compounds is determined-by inoculating mice intraperitoneally with a suspension of viable cercariae and allowing 6-170 8 weeks forthe de+ velopment of adulti'worms-inthe mesenteric and portal veins or liver." Treatment is started when adult worms are present and is continued for various periods of time thereafter. The effect of the treatment on the schistosomes is determined by killing the mice, necropsy and counting the number of living and dead worms in the mesentery or liver. In untreated mice about of the worms are found in the mesentery and dead worms are seldom found in the liver. Schistosomacidal compounds cause a pronounced shift of worms from the mesentery to the liver and within a short period of time most of the worms in the liver are dead. The following table shows the results obtained using the compound 1-[1'(4'-methylpiperazyl)l 4 methylthioxanthone against Schistosoma mansoni:

B. I. D.=Twice a day. tion they may be chemically linked together in some manner. The 4-chloro isomer is less reactive than the 1-ch1oro compound and under the conditions of the present process, does not combine with the alkylated or carboxalkylated piperazine. The unreacted 4-chloro compound, lacking basic properties, is not extracted when using an aqueous acid solution. The desired product, on the other hand, is basic and is extracted by the aqueous acid solution and subsequently precipitated by neutralization with an alkaline substance.
The compounds of the present invention are toxic to the agents causing schistosomiasis while being relatively non-toxic to the host. The compounds also are more active and less toxic than antimonial compounds such as tartar emetic.
The compounds of the present invention may be prepared by the following method which illustrates the preparation of 1-[1'(4t-methy1piperazyl) li-methylthioxanthone.
An isomeric mixture of 20 g. of 1-ch1oro-4- methyl thioxanthone and its isomer 4-chloro-lmethylthioxanthone, 10 g. of sodium bicarbonate,
yield of 11 g. of 1-[1(4'-methylpiperazyl)1-4- methylthioxanthone, having a melting point of 133-134 C. was obtained.
The compound 1- (1 '-piperazyl) -4-methylthioxanthone can be prepared by the same process illustrated above with the exception that a carbalkoxy piperazine, such as carbethoxy-p-iperazine, is used instead of 'l-methylpiperazine and the carbalkoxy or carbethoxy group removed by acid hydrolysis.
I claim:
1. Compounds having the general formula:
0 in which R is a member of the group consisting of hydrogen and methyl radicals.
4 2. 1-[l(4'-methylpiperazyl)1-4 methylthioxanthone.
3. A method of preparing compounds having the general formula:
in which R is a member of the group consisting 15 of hydrogen and methyl radicals which comprises reacting l-chloro-4-methylthioxanthone with a member of the group consisting of carboxalkylated piperazines and N-methylpiperazine in a hydrocarbon solvent and recovering said prod- 20 not therefrom.
4. A method of preparing 1-[1(4-methylpiperazyl)l-4-methylthioxanthone which comprises reacting 1-chloro--methylthioxanthone with l-methylpiperazine in a hydrocarbon sol- 25 vent and recovering said product therefrom.
