Description

The present invention relates to novel derivatives of 2-aminomethyl benzimidazole, their process of preparation and their therapeutic application.
The novel compounds according to the present invention correspond to the general formula: ##EQU4## in which: Ar represents a phenyl ring optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms, by one or more alkyl radicals containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms or by one or more alkoxy groups which each contain up to 4 carbon atoms; and
R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 each represent an alkyl radical containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or form together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, a heterocyclic radical selected from piperidino, pyrrolidino, morpholino and hexamethyleneimino.
The process according to the present invention comprises condensing a derivative of 2-chloromethyl benzimidazole of the general formula: ##EQU5## with an amine of the general formula: ##EQU6## in which the symbols, R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and Ar have the same significance as in formula (I).
The derivatives of formula (II) are themselves obtained by the reaction of a derivative of 2-hydroxymethyl benzimidazole of the general formula: ##EQU7## in which Ar has the same significance as in formula (I), with thionyl chloride of formula:
SOCl.sub.2 (V)
the derivatives of formula (IV) resulting from the reaction, in a hydroalcoholic medium maintained under reflux, of the hydrochloride of a derivative of piperidinomethylacetophenone of the general formula: ##EQU8## in which Ar has the same significance as in formula (I), with 2-methanol benzimidazole of formula:

TABLE X______________________________________Code No. of Percentage augmentations of flowcompound tested of isolated heart of a guinea-pig (%)______________________________________72 490 14072 479 8072 478 5072 692 60______________________________________
10. Central nervous system stimulating properties
The compounds of formula (I), administered by oral means to the mouse, provoke an augmentation of the number of excursions into the escape enclosure.
Thus, following the administration of 100 mg/Kg/p.o. of the compounds of Code Nos. 72 457 and 72 736, an augmentation of 30% in the number of excursions in the escape test, is observed.
11. Antiarythmic properties
Administered by intraperitoneal means, the compounds of formula (I) are capable of protecting the mouse against the ventricular fibrillations provoked by the inhalation of chloroform.
By way of example, the compounds of Code Nos. 72 488, 72 568 and 72 479 present a DE 50 of 200 mg/Kg/i.p.
12. Diuretic properties
The compounds of formula (I), administered by oral means to the mouse, simultaneously with a volume of 1 ml. of an isotonic solution of sodium chloride per 25 g of the corporeal weight of the mouse, are capable of provoking an augmentation of the volume of urine emitted by reference to control animals, the volume being measured for 6 hours following administration.
By way of example, the following Table XI lists the results obtained by the administration of 25 mg/Kg/p.o. of different compounds of formula (I).

13. Antihistaminic properties
The compounds of formula I, introduced in the conserving medium, are capable of opposing the contractural action of histamine on the isolated ileum of the guinea-pig. This activity is evaluated by taking promethazine as standard.
By way of example, the compound of Code No. 72 366 presents an equivalent activity to that of promethazine.
As a result of a comparison between the pharmacologically active doses mentioned above and the lethal doses listed in the following Table XII, the difference between said doses is sufficiently great to permit the utilisation of the compounds of formula (I) in therapeutics.

The compounds of formula (I) are useful in the treatment of gastro-duodenal ulcers, visceral spasms, asthma, anxiety, nervousness, painful inflammations, diverse originating pains, circulatory insufficiencies, cardiac arythmies, hypertension, oedemas, allergies and asthenia.
They may be administered by oral means in the form of tablets, gelules and dragees containing 10 to 400 mg of active ingredient (1 to 6 times per day), or suspensions containing 0.5 to 5% of active ingredient (1 to 6 spoonfuls per day), by parenteral means in the form of injectable ampoules containing 5 to 50 mg of active ingredient (1 to 3 times per day) and by rectal means in the form of suppositories containing 10 to 200 mg of active ingredient (1 to 3 times per day).
Accordingly, the present invention also relates to a therapeutic composition comprising a compound of the general formula (I) together with a therapeutically acceptable carrier.
