The ,5-dehydro derivatives corresponding to formula I, i.e. those bearing a ,5-double bond are also preferre The term "halogen" as used herein is meant to denote all four forms thereof, i.e., chlorine, fluorine, bromine and iodine unless otherwise specified. "Lower alkyl" includes straight and branched chain saturated hydrocarbon groups having from 1 to 7» preferably 1 to 4, carbon atoms including, for example methyl, isobutyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl and the like. -A-rpprpRPntati lower alkanoyloxy group ic an aootoxy group.
The term straight and branched chain saturated hydrocarbon groups having from 2 to 10, preferably 2 to 6 carbon atoms. Likewise, the term straight and branched chain olefinic unsaturated hydrocarbon groups having from 2 to 10, preferably 2 to 6 carbon atoms.
The compounds of formula I above form pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts with pharmaceutically acceptable organic and inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydro-bromic acid, sulfonic acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, camphorsulfonic acid, ethane-sulfonic acid, ascorbic acid, salicylic acid, maleic acid and the like. In addition, compounds of formula I in the form of the pharmaceutically unacceptable acid addition salts may be converted to the desired pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt form by treatment of the pharmaceutically unacceptable acid addition salt with a pharmaceutically acceptable acid under ion exchange conditions. An alternative method for effecting substitution of the acid salt forms is to the free base followed by formation of the desired pharmaceutically acceptable acid form therefrom by means known in the art .
In a further aspect of the present invention there is encompassed within the scope of formula I above the basic salts of the carboxylic acid group. Such salts are formed by exchanging the hydrogen ion of the carboxyl group with a cation such as an alkali or alkaline earth metal cation, e.g., sodium ion, potassium ion, calcium ion, etc. or a complex cation such as an ammonium ion or a substituted ammonium ion such as a mono-, di- or trialkylammonium ion or a mono-, di- or trihydroxy-alkylammonium ion. Base salt forms of the compounds of formula I are readily prepared from the free acid by treating said acid with a desired base compound using techniques now well known in the art. Examples of preferred base compounds for this purpose include sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, ethylenediamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine or tris-(hydroxymethyl )aminomethane .
The resulting salt solutions will range in pH slightly on the alkaline side depending on the concentrations desired.
The base compound content is usually one mole equivalent with the exception of the weaker bases such as tris- (hydroxy-methyl) -aminomethane which require somewhat more than one mole equivalent. The pH range of these solutions may be from 7 to but generally is from 8 to 9.
The compounds of formula I, in one process aspect •wherein R and R have the meaning indicated above, or a 4,5-dihydro or 4,5-dihydro-4-lov:er alkyl derivative thereof with a compound of the following general fornula - 1 - ' III -wherein Y has the meaning indicated above, ∑ represents ohloi-ine, iodine of bromin© (brorains is preferred), and Z represents car xyl or a srou convertible into carboxyl by hydrolysis, oxidation, nitrosatiGn, halogenation etc., e.g. carbalkoxy (-CC0 alkyl) or carbaroxy (-COO aryl), carbamoyl (-CCIH.,). hydroxyme h l (~CH2G∑S), formyl (-0Π0}8 cyano, methylcarbon/l (-OOCK^), anhydride, etc. (preferably 2 is carbox 1 or carbalkoxy, sost preferably earbomothoxy or c rboethoxy) , and ¾here Z is other than carboxy1 converting said carboxy precursor into & carboxy ^roup.
In order to facilitate? the reaction between compounds of formulae 11 nnd III above, it is most desirable that the compound of formula II be Initially converted to the sodium salt form. This may most conveniently be accomplished by treating the compound of formula II with a reactive sodium agent such as sodium hydride. It is the sodium form of the compound of formula II which, in this preferred aspect of the invention reacts with the compounds of formula III above to produce the compounds of the present invention, e.g., compounds of formula I or immediate precursors thereto.
Conversion of carboxy precursors into carboxyl may be accomplished by procedures well known in the art.
Thus, for example, when compounds of formula III having Z as a carboxyalley1 group are employed in the above reaction, it is necessary to hydrolyze the reaction product to yield the desired compounds of formula I. Such hydrolysis is readily conducted in the presence of alkali using conventional conditions. The desired free acid is obtained after acidification with an acid, e.g., a mineral acid or organic acid such as hydrochloric acid or acetic acid. Similar methods can be used in case Y being a carboxy-aryl group or anhydride. A oarboxy-amine group may be converted into a carboxy group by treatment with nitrous acid. For the oxidation of a hydroxymethyl or a formyl group, treatment with a permanganate, an organic peracid such as perbenzoic acids, perphthalic acid, etc. or with silver oxide or similar agents affords the corresponding carboxy derivative. A cyano group can be hydro-lyzed by treatment with acid such as diluted hydrochloric acid, to yield the corresponding amide which is in turn transformed into the carboxy derivative as described above. A methyl- treatment with a halogen, e.g. bromo, chloro or iodo followed by alkaline hydrolysis, e.g. with sodium hydroxide.
The reaction between compounds of formula III and the sodio derivative of compounds of formula II may be carried out in the presence of an inert organic solvent such as, for example, benzene, toluene, Ν,Ν-dimethylformamide, hexa-methylphosphoramide, dimethylsul oxide and the like. The latter three solvents are preferred. The reaction is conducted at a temperature in the range of from -10 to the reflux temperature of the reaction medium, most preferably in the range of from about 0 to 80eC.
The compounds of formula I as well as the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are useful as pharmaceuticals and are characterized by activity as anticonvulsant agents, sedatives and muscle relaxants. These compounds can be used in the form of conventional pharmaceutical preparations; for example, the aforesaid compounds can be mixed with conventional organic or inorganic, inert pharmaceutical carriers suitable for parenteral or enteral administration such as, for example, water, gelatin, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, talc, vegetable oil, gums, polyalkylene glycols, Vaseline or the like. They can be administered in conventional pharmaceutical forms, e.g., solid forms, for example, tablets, dragees, capsules, suppositories or the like; or in liquid forms, for example, injectable solutions, suspensions or emulsions. Moreover, the pharmaceutical compositions con ventional pharmaceutical expedients such as sterilization and can contain conventional pharmaceutical excipients such as preservatives, stabilizing agents, wetting agents, emulsifying agents, salts for the adjustment of osmotic pressure or buffers.

For the purposes of demonstrating the critical nature of the selection the value of the alkyl group's carbon chain lenght within the range defining the compounds of the present invention, e.g., 2-10, a further comparison was run in this experiment utilizing a compound where the alkyl group carbon chain was 1. This compound is 2- (7-chloro-5- (2-fluoro-phenyl)-l,' -dihydro-2-one-l, -benzodiazepin-l-yl] acetic acid and is designated Compound H in the following tests. This compound has a representative configuration with respect to substltuents as the compounds of the present invention employed in the tests.
The tests employed in this experiment were the following: Inclined Screen The test is useful in determining muscle relaxant activity. Groups of 6 male mice are given the test drug (maximum dose of 500 mg/kg) and then are left on the inclined screen at least four hours for observation of paralyzing effects severe enough to cause them to slide off the screen.
This activity is observed, additional doses are tested until at least two are reached at which some, but not all, the animals slide off the screen. Doses at which mice fall off the screen due to toxicity or excitation are not included in the calculation of POcn» The PD.-_ is determined from a graph on which dose is plotted against percent of mice paralyzed.
This PD.__ value is defined as the dose in mg/kg which can 50 be expected to cause 50 percent of the mice to slide off the screen.
Foot Shock This test is a screen for compounds having muscle relaxant activity. A pair of mice is confined under a 1 liter beaker placed on a grid which presents shock to the feet. period. Pairs of mice are marked and pre-treated by oral dosage one hour prior to a second shocking. Logarithmic-dose intervals are utilized up to a maximum of 100 mg/kg. At the 100 percent blocking dose, three out of three pairs must be blocked from fighting.
Unanaesthetized Cat Cats are treated orally and observed for minimum symptoms usually ataxia. One cat is used at a dose of 50 mg/kg. If activity is present, up to three cats/dose are used.
Results are given as minimum effective dose. This test is useful in determining muscle relaxant activity.
Antlmetrazole This test determines anticonvulsant activity of compounds In mice. The test compound is administered orally to groups of four mice at various dose levels. One hour later, metrazole (at a dose level previously determined to be sufficient to induce convulsive seizures in all test animals ~ 12 mg kg) is administered subcutaneously and the animals are observed for protection from convulsive seizures. Results are recorded as the number of animals protected against convulsions. The dose at which 50 percent of the animals are protected from convulsive seizures is expressed as the ED-._. 50 Maximum Shock When 30 mA of current is delivered to mice for 0, 2 se-conds through corneal electrodes, a maximal tonic-clonic seizure is induced. The components of the maximal seizure in mice are: phase of body clonus. Mice are screened twenty-four hours prior to an assay to make sure that they respond normally. In the general screen, a compound is administered orally to groups with four mice at various dose levels. One hour after administration of drug, the 30 mA shock is applied. This appearance of the hind leg extensor component is the criterion of activity. When activity is observed, the compound is administered to additional groups until the extensor phase reappears. The dose in mg/kg which prevents hind limb extension in two of four animals is reported as the effective dose (ED^Q) . On active compounds, eight animals are employed per dose group.
Minimum Shock Seizures are induced by the application of a current to the eyes of the mice through corneal electrodes. A drop of physiological salt solution is placed on each eye of the mouse and the eyes are brought into direct contact with the electrodes. All mice are initially shocked at 6,0 mA for 0,2 seconds. Only those animals which have a minimal seizure are utilized in an assay. After a twenty-four hour period has elapsed, the compound to be assayed is administered to groups of four animals at various dose levels. Following a 1-hour interval, the animals are again shocked at 6,0 mA. The criterion of activity is protection against a minimal seizure induced with this intensity of current. ED-- values are po determined for active compounds using eight animals per dose group.
The test results from the above test using indicated compounds including those of the present invention are summarized below in Table 1.
