1,4-Dihydro-3 (2H)-isoquinolinone derivatives

This invention relates to novel 1,4-dihydro-3(2H)-isoquinolinone derivatives.
The new compounds according to the invention correspond to the formula wherein ##SPC2##
Wherein
R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 each represent hydrogen or a straight-chained or branched C.sub.1-3 alkyl group,
R stands for hydrogen or a straight-chained or branched C.sub.1-4 alkyl group,
R.sub.3 stands for hydrogen or a straight-chained or branched C.sub.1-4 alkyl group, and
R and R.sub.3 may form together with the adjacent nitrogen atom.
The compounds of formula (I) are of basic character, and form acid addition salts. These salts are also covered by the scope of the invention.
The new compounds of formula (I) possess valuable pharmacological properties, and act, primarily, on the central nervous system. These compounds block the spasm provoked by electric current or by pentamethylenetetrazole. On the basis of their pharmacological properties, the compounds of the general formula (I) can be used in the therapy primarily as the active agents of anticonvulsive medicines.
The pharmacological properties of the new compounds were tested on white mice of both sexes, weighing 16 to 24 g. The new compounds were administered orally through a metal stomach tube, in the form of a 5 per cent suspension in a medium containing Tween 80 as suspending agent.
The LD.sub.5o values of the compounds were determined on groups each consisting of 8 mice. The results were evaluated according to the method of Lichtfield and Wilcoxon (J. Pharmacol. exp. Therap. 96, 99 / 1949/).
The paralyzing effect of the compounds was tested on groups each consisting of 8 mice, by the rotarod test. The ED.sub.5o rotarod value corresponds to the dosis, which, one hour after the administration, causes 50 per cent of the test animals to fall down from the rotarod within 3 minutes. The neurotoxic activity was evaluated according to the method of Lichtfield and Wilcoxon.
The electroshock-inhibiting effect of the compounds was examined on groups each consisting of 10, individually caged mice. The anticonvulsive activity was tested by the "Maximum Electroshock Seizure Test" of Swinyard, et al. (Epilepsia 10, 107 /1969/), and the inhibition of the tonic extension of the hind limbs was evaluated. The ED.sub.5o ES value corresponds to the dosis which, 1 hour after the administration, has a protecting effect for 50 % of the animals. The results were evaluated according to the method of Lichtfield and Wilcoxon. The electroshock was provoked using corneal electrodes, under the following parameters: 50 Hz, 0.3 sec. 3 msec; the current intensity varied between 28 and 34 mA (a current intensity was maintained that was sufficient to provoke spasm in each of the 10 animals).
The activities of the compounds with protecting effect against electroshock were compared by the so-called protective index, which was calculated by dividing the individual ED.sub.5o rotarod values with the corresponding ED.sub.5o ES values. The greater this ratio, the more remote the dosis protecting against electroshock is from the dosis causing muscle relaxation.
The inhibiting effect on pentamethylenetetrazoleprovoked spasm was tested on groups each consisting of 12 individually caged, randomized mice, by the method of Orloff (Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med. N.Y., 70, 254 /1949/). The pentamethylenetetrazole spasm threshold was determined by the slow (0.05 ml./10 sec.) intravenous administration of a 0.5 % pentamethylenetetrazole solution, and the influence of the compounds on the spasm threshold was examined. In every case, the tonic extension of the hind limbs was regarded as spasm.
The results of these tests are listed in Table 1. For comparison various known and widely used pharmacons, namely phenobarbital (5-ethyl-5-phenylbarbituric acid), phenytoin (5,5-diphenylhydantoine) and trimethadion (3,5,5-trimethyl-2,4-oxazolidine-dione) were also tested under the same conditions. The results are also given in the Table.
The data listed in the Table show that the compounds of the invention are of low toxicity, and most of them have a protective index 1 to 2 orders of magnitude greater than the known reference substances.

(0.012 moles) of glacial acetic acid are added. Thereafter 2 g. of palladium catalyst are added to the mixture, and gaseous hydrogen is led over the solution until carbon dioxide evolution can be observed. When the evolution of carbon dioxide ceases, the catalyst is removed by filtration, the filtrate is evaporated to dryness, and the residue is taken up in water. The aqueous solution is rendered alkaline. An oily substance separates, which reapidly solidifies. The solid substance is filtered off, washed with water until neutral, and dried first in a vacuum desiccator over phosphorus pentoxide, and then under an IR-lamp. The obtained 2.3 g. of crude product is reacted with maleic acid in ethanol. 1.8 g. of the title compound are obtained; m.p.: 165.degree.-167.degree.C (under decomposition).
Analysis: Calculated for C.sub.23 H.sub.25 N.sub.3 O.sub.6 : C: 62.86 %, H: 5.73 %, N: 9.56 %. Found: C: 63.02 %, H: 5.90 %, N: 9.83 %.
