Abstract

5-(Aminoalkyl)-11-phenyl-5H-dibenzo [b,e][1,4]diazepines having the formula: (wherein R<1> and R<2> each represent a hydrogen atom or a methyl group and X represents a hydrogen, chlorine, bromine or fluorine atom) and their salts are antidepressants.

Description

The present invention relates to certain -(aminoalkyl)-11-phenyl-5H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepines for use in treating depression in humans, and to certain of the compounds which are novel.
Wander, A. in British Patent Specification No. 907,646 discloses preparation of certain of the dibenzodiazepines utilized in the method of this invention; e.g., the active ingredient of the compound of example 1 below in the form of the maleate salt.
Wander, A. in British Patent Specification No. 959,994 discloses utility of reduced forms; e.g., 5-(aminoalkyl)-ll-phenyl10,ll-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepines as parasympathologics, antihistamines, spasmolytics, tranquilizers and psychic energizers.
IS Greig, Μ. Ε., et al, in J. Med. chem. Ill, No. 2 page I55 (1971) discloses anaphylaxis activity of certain dibenzodiazepine homologs in mice particularly 2-chloro-5(dimethylaminoethy1)-ll-phenyl-5H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4 jdiazepine.
According to the present invention there are provided compounds having the formula; Fonnula I .
. T 2 wherein R and R each represent a hydrogen or a methyl group, and may be the same or different, and X represents a hydrogen, chlorine, bromine or fluorine atom, and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, for use fn treating depression.
The invention also extends to compounds having the formula .
Formula I 2 wherein R and R both represent a hydrogen atom or one represents a methyl group and the other represents a hydrogen atom.
. Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts are those salts which are physiologically compatible, such salts being formed either by strong or weak acids. Representative of strong acids are hydrochloric, sulfuric and phosphoric acids. Representative of weak, acids are fumaric, maleic, succinic, oxalic? and cyclohexamic acids.
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 usefulness of compounds for treating human depression was used as follows: 20 mgAg of the compound to be tested was administered to five adult female mice (ICR-DUB strain), intraperitoneally, 30 minutes prior to the administration of a 15 ptotic dose (32 mgAg, I.P.) of tetrabenazine (as the methane sulphonate salt). Thirty minutes later, the presence or absence of complete eyelid closure (ptosis) was assessed in each animal. An EDSQ (Median Effective Dose) may be established for each tested compound in blocking tetra20 benazine induced depression in mice, following the procedure given by Litchfield et al., J. Pharmacol. Exp. Therap. 9o: 9.9-113 (1949). The preferred dibenzodiazepine useful in the method of this invention is the active agent of Example 1; namely, 5-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-11-phenyl5H-dibenzojb,e] ]l, 4jdiazepine.
It is therefore an object to provide compounds and pharmaceutical compositions useful in the treatment of depression.
Generally, the usual dosage forms are employed.
They comprise active substance (.the active ingredient of Formula I) with a suitable pharmaceutical carrier to provide pharmaceutical compositions such as solutions, syrups, elixirs, tablets, capsules, suppositories or powders.
The compounds of Formula I wherein the 5-position is substituted by the 3-dimethylaminopropyl radical are prepared by cyclodehydration of the N-C3-dimethylaminopropyl)-o-benzamido-diphenylaniines as in British Patent Specification No. 907,646 using a dehydrating-condensation catalyst; for example, phosphorus pentoxide or oxyhalogenides of phosphorus, preferably the latter, in a suitable solvent; e.g., 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane. The equation is: wherein X has the values assigned under Formula I above. - 6 The novel compounds of Formula I wherein the 5“ position is eubetituted by the J-aminopropyl radical era prepared by cyclodehydration of novel N-[3-{1-phthalimido) propyll-o-benzamido-diphenylamines (lib) and thereafter converting the phthalimido moiety to amino (Hlfe) with, hydrazine and acid. The equation ie: wherein X has the values assigned under Formula I. compounds of Formula III are also novel.
The novel compounds of Formula I wherein the 5-position is substituted by J-monomethylpropyl amine are prepared by further reaction of the 3-aminopropyl compound with triethylorthoformate followed by reaction with sodium borohydride (procedure of Crocket & Blanton, 197^(1): 55-6 Synthesis). The equation is as follows: - 7 Ihe starting benzamido expounds of Formula XI (XXa and XXb) are prepared by a modification of the procedure of British Patent Specif ication No. 907,646. Qrtho-nitro-diphenylanine ie first reduetively alkylated with a aolution of p-ehloropropyl dimethylamine or 5-(1-phthalimido)-1-chloropropane and following this the nitro moiety ie reduced with hydrogen 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 equation is as follows: Ha /Pd-C Formula II Q = -N(CH3)a or 1-phthalimido.

Exemplary of solid carriers for oral administration are such as lactose, magnesium stearate, terra alba, sucrose, talc, stearic acid, gelatin, agar, pectin or acacia.
Exemplary of liquid carriers for oral administration are vegetable oils and water.
For intramuscular administration the carrier or excipient may be a sterile, parenterally acceptable liquid; e.g., water or a parenterally acceptable oil; e.g., arachis oil contained in ampoules.
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, 5θ> or 100 milligrams or 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. Twenty-five to 200 milligrams appears optimum per unit dose or usual broader ranges appear to be about 10 to 5θ0 milligrams per unit dose. Daily dosages usually required should range from about 0-5 to about 20 mgAq/day, preferably 0-5 to 10 mgAg· The active ingredients of the invention may be combined with 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 dosage form employed. Obviously, several unit dosage forms may be administered at about the same time. The exact individual dosages as well as daily dosages will, of course, be demonstrated according to - 19 5. be determined according to standard medical principles under the direction of a physician.

EXAMPLE 14 A typical formulation for a tablet containing 5.0 mg of active ingredient per tablet follows. The formulation may be used for other strengths of active ingredient by adjustment of the weight of dicalciura phosphate.
Per Tablet, mg. . 1. Active ingredient 10.0 2. Corn starch 15.0 3. Corn starch (paste) 12.0 4. Lactose 35.0 5. Dicalcium phosphate 132.0 6. Calcium stearate 2.0 Total 202.0 .
Ingredients'1, 2, 4 and 5 were first uniformly blended. Ingredient 3 was prepared as a 10% paste in water. The blend was granulated with the starch paste and the wet mass passed through an 8 mesh (U.S. sieve series) screen. The wet granulation was dried and sized through a 12 mesh (U.S. sieve series) screen.
The dried granules were blended with the calcium stearate and compressed. 8 mesh has openings of 2.38 mm; 12 mesh of 1.68 mm.
