BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,452,799; 4,524,206 and 4,590,196 there are described a number of 3-piperazinyl-1,2-benzisoxazoles and -1,2-benzisothiazoles having psychotropic, tranquilizing and analgesic properties. In EP-A-0,196,132, published Oct. 1, 1986 and J. Med. Chem. 1985, 28, 761-769, there are described 3-piperidinyl-1,2-benzisoxazoles and -1,2-benzisothiazoles as antipsychotics and in EP-A-0,135,781, published Apr. 3, 1985, there are disclosed a number of 3-piperidinyl-indazole derivatives having antipsychotic and analgesic properties. Other structurally related piperidinyl derivatives are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,335,127 and 4,485,107.
The present compounds differ therefrom by the fact that they are invariably substituted with a 2-aminopyrimidininone containing moiety and that a number of them show antihistaminic activity.

As used in the foregoing definitions halo is generic to fluoro, chloro, bromo and iodo; C.sub.1-4 alkyl defines straight and branch chained saturated hydrocarbon radicals having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as, for example, methyl, ethyl, 1-methylethyl, 1,1-dimethylethyl, propyl, 2-methylpropyl, butyl and the like; C.sub.1-6 alkyl defines C.sub.1-4 alkyl radicals as defined hereinabove, and the higher homologs thereof having from 5 to 6 carbon atoms; C.sub.1-6 alkanediyl defines bivalent straight or branch chained hydrocarbon radicals containing form 1 to 6 carbon atoms such as, for example, 1,2-ethanediyl, 1,3-propanediyl, 1,4-butanediyl, 1,5-pentanediyl, 1,6-hexanediyl and the branched isomers thereof.
Said acid addition salts as mentioned hereinabove are meant to comprise the therapeutically active non-toxic addition salt forms which the compounds of formula (I) are able to form. The latter can conveniently be obtained by treating the base form with such appropriate acids as inorganic acids, for example, hydrohalic acids, e.g. hydrochloric, hydrobromic and the like, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid and the like; or organic acids, for example, acetic, propanoic, hydroxyacetic, 2-hydroxypropanoic, 2-oxopropanoic, ethanedioic, propanedioic, butanedioic, (Z)-2-butenedioic, (E)-2-butenedioic, 2-hydroxybutanedioic, 2,3-dihydroxybutanedioic, 2-hydroxy-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylic, methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, 4-methylbenzenesulfonic, cyclohexanesulfamic, 2-hydroxybenzoic, 4-amino-2-hydroxybenzoic and the like acids. Conversely the salt form can be converted by treatment with alkali into the free base form.
The term acid addition salt also comprises the hydrates and solvent addition forms which the compounds of formula (I) are able to form. Examples of such forms are e.g. hydrates, alcoholates and the like.
From formula (I) it is evident that the compounds of this invention may have several asymmetric carbon atoms in their structure. Each of these chiral centers may be indicated by the stereochemical descriptors R and S, this R and S notation corresponding to the rules described in Pure Appl. Chem., 1976, 45, 11-30. Unless otherwise mentioned or indicated, the chemical designation of compounds denotes the mixture of all possible stereochemically isomeric forms, said mixtures containing all diastereomers and enantiomers of the basic molecular structure. Stereochemically isomeric forms of the compounds of formula (I) are obviously intended to be embraced within the scope of the invention.
Diastereoisomers may be separated by physical separation methods such as selective crystallization and chromatographic techniques, e.g., counter current distribution, liquid chromatography and the like; and enantiomers may be separated from each other following art-known resolution methods, for example, by the selective crystallization of their diastereomeric salts with optically active acids, or by chromatographic techniques, e.g. by liquid chromatography using a chiral stationary phase.
Pure stereochemically isomeric forms may also be derived from the corresponding pure stereochemically isomeric forms of the appropriate starting materials, provided that the reaction occurs stereospecifically. Preferably, if a specific stereoisomer is desired, said compound will be synthesized by stereoselective methods of preparation. These methods will advantageously employ enantiomerically pure starting materials.

For example the N-alkylation reaction of intermediate (XXI-a) with a 1,2-dihaloethane or a 1,3-dihalopropane can yield those intermediates wherein R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 together form an ethanediyl (XXI-b-1) or propanediyl (XXI-b-2) radical. ##STR19##
Intermediates of formula (XXI-b-3) can be obtained by condensing (XXI-a) wherein R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are hydrogen, with an .alpha.-haloketone or -aldehyde (XXII) wherein R.sup.11 and R.sup.12 each independently represent hydrogen, C.sub.1-6 alkyl or phenyl, in the presence of an appropriate acid or base. ##STR20##
The intermediates of formula (XXI-b-3) and (XXI-b-4) can also be prepared by condensing an appropriately substituted 2-aminoimidazole (X.sup.1 =CR.sup.12) or 2-aminotriazole (X.sup.1 =N) of formula (XXIII) wherein R.sup.11 and R.sup.12 each independently represent hydrogen, C.sub.1-6 alkyl or phenyl, with an .alpha.-acyl-lactone (XXIV) in the presence of an activating reagent such as a halogenating reagent in a reaction-inert solvent. In some instances the hydroxy group may be converted in situ into a halo group, thus directly yielding an alkylating reagent of formula (II). ##STR21##
The intermediates of formula (XXI-b-5) and (XXI-b-6) can be obtained by condensing a hydrazine derivative (XXV) with respectively an .alpha.-haloketone or -aldehyde (XXII) and an orthoester (XXVI) wherein R.sup.11 and R.sup.12 each independently represent hydrogen or C.sub.1-6 alkyl. ##STR22##
The monocyclic 2-aminopyrimidinones of formula (XXI) and the hydrazine derivative (XXV) can be prepared from an appropriate mercaptopyrimidinone (XXVII) by S-alkylating it first to an alkylthio intermediate and subsequently substituting this alkylthio substituent with respectively an amine R.sup.4 R.sup.5 NH or a hydrazine R.sup.4 NHNH.sub.2. ##STR23##
The compounds of formula (I), the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts and stereochemically isomeric forms thereof, are potent antagonists of neurotransmitters and in particular of the mediators serotonin and histamine. Antagonizing said mediators will suppress or relieve a variety of symptoms associated with phenomena induced by the release, in particular the excessive release, of these mediators.
Antihistaminic activity can be demonstrated by, e.g., the results obtained in the "Protection of Rats from Compound 48/80--induced lethality" test described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,556,660. Serotonin-antagonism can be demonstrated in the "Gastric Lesions induced by compound 48/80 in rats" test described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,335,127 and in the "Combined apomorphine, tryptamine and norepinephrine in rats" test described in EP-A-0,196,132.
Therapeutic indications for using the present compounds are mainly in the CNS area, the gastrointestinal and cardiovascular field and related domains.
Some of the compounds of formula (I) are very interesting serotonin antagonists which are useful for influencing the sleep-wakefulness pattern in warm-blooded animals, as can be demonstrated in the test-procedure "Sleep-wakefulness patterns in the rat". More specifically, the compounds wherein R.sup.1 is a radical of formula (a-4) and X is C, said compounds being defined as the first subgroup, clearly improve the quality of sleep by increasing the amount of deep slow wave sleep (SWS2). Therapeutic indications for using said compounds are sleep disorders.
On the other hand, some of the compounds of formula (I) have interesting neuroleptic properties, since they show combined antagonism against dopamine, serotonin and histamine. Therapeutic indications for using said compounds, more particularly those compounds wherein R.sup.1 is a radical of formula (a-1), (a-2) or (a-3) and X is CH or N, said compounds being defined as the second subgroup, comprise psychotic diseases, aggressive behaviour, anxiety, depression and migraine. Since the instant compounds show combined dopamine-serotonin antagonism, they are expected to be particularly useful in treating patients suffering from schizophrenia by offering relief of both the positive and the negative symptoms of schizophrenia. Further, the present compounds also appear to be useful therapeutic agents for combatting autism. In addition, serotonin antagonists have been associated with a number of other properties such as the suppression of appetite and the promotion of weight loss, which may prove effective in combatting obesity; and also the alleviation of withdrawal symptoms in addicts trying to discontinue the use of drugs such as, for example, alcohol, tobacco, cocaine, opiates, opioids, amphetamines and the like.
In view of their useful pharmacological properties the subject compounds may be formulated into various pharmaceutical forms for administration purposes. To prepare the pharmaceutical compositions of this invention, an effective amount of the particular compound, in base or acid addition salt form, as the active ingredient is combined in intimate admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, which carrier may take a wide variety of forms depending on the form of preparation desired for administration. These pharmaceutical compositions are desirably in unitary dosage form suitable, preferably, for administration orally, rectally, percutaneously, or by parenteral injection. For example, in preparing the compositions in oral dosage form, any of the usual pharmaceutical media may be employed such as, for example, water, glycols, oils, alcohols and the like in the case of oral liquid preparations such as suspensions, syrups, elixirs and solutions: or solid carriers such as starches, sugars, kaolin, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the like in the case of powders, pills, capsules and tablets. Because of their ease in administration, tablets and capsules represent the most advantageous oral dosage unit form, in which case solid pharmaceutical carriers are obviously employed. For parenteral compositions, the carrier will usually comprise sterile water, at least in large part, though other ingredients, for example to aid solubility, may be included. Injectable solutions, for example, may be prepared in which the carrier comprises saline solution, glucose solution or a a mixture of saline and glucose solution. Injectable suspensions may also be prepared in which case appropriate liquid carriers, suspending agents and the like may be employed. In the compositions suitable for percutaneous administration, the carrier optionally comprises a penetration enhancing agent and/or a suitable wetting agent, optionally combined with suitable additives of any nature in minor proportions, which additives do not introduce a significant deletorious effect on the skin. Said additives may facilitate the administration to the skin and/or may be helpful for preparing the desired compositions. These compositions may be administered in various ways, e.g., as a transdermal patch, as a spot-on or as an ointment. Acid addition salts of (I) due to their increased water solubility over the corresponding base form, are obviously more suitable in the preparation of aqueous compositions.
It is especially advantageous to formulate the aforementioned pharmaceutical compositions in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Dosage unit form as used in the specification and claims herein refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active ingredient calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier. Examples of such dosage unit forms are tablets (including scored or coated tablets), capsules, pills, powder packets, wafers, injectable solutions or suspensions, teaspoonfuls, tablespoonfuls and the like, and segregated multiples thereof.
In view of the usefulness of the subject compounds in the treatment of diseases associated with the release of neurotransmitters it is evident that the present invention provides a method of treating warm-blooded animals suffering from such diseases, more in particular from sleep-disorders or psychotic diseases, said method comprising the systemic administration of a pharmaceutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof in admixture with a pharmaceutical carrier. Those of skill in the treatment of diseases associated with the release of neurotransmitters could easily determine the effective amount from the test results presented here. In general it is contemplated that an effective amount would be from 0.01 mg/kg to 4 mg/kg body weight, preferably from 0.04 mg/kg to 2 mg/kg body weight.

The following examples are intended to illustrate and not to limit the scope of the present invention in all its aspects. Unless otherwise stated all parts therein are by weight.

C) Pharmacological Examples
The useful sleep-enhancing properties of the compounds of the first subgroup wherein R.sup.1 is a radical of formula (a-4) and X is C, said compounds being exemplified in tables 2 and 5 can clearly be demonstrated in the following test procedure.
Example 25
Sleep-wakefulness patterns in the rat
Under pentobarbital anesthesia (50 mg/kg i.p.) 10 adult male Wistar rats weighing 240 to 260 g were chronically implanted for standard polygraphic recording of electroencephalogram (EEG), electro-oculogram (EOG) and electromyogram (EMG). After a 8-10 day recovery period from surgery and habituation to the recording conditions (12 h light-dark schedule, light on at 9:00 a.m.), pharmacological tests were started.
The animals received 0.04, 0.16 or 0.63 mg/kg of compound 39 dissolved in 1 mM tartaric acid and injected i.p. at the onset of the light period. A minimum of 3 recovery days was allowed between two treatments.
Polygraphic recordings were scored visually and classified as being either wakefulness (W), light slow wave sleep (SWS1), deep slow wave sleep (SWS2) or paradoxical sleep (PS). Sleep-wakefulness parameters were analyzed for each of the two successive 4 h periods following the treatment and compared to baseline (vehicle injection under the same conditions). The amounts of sleep and wakefulness states were expressed as percentage of baseline recordings which represented means of two baseline values per animal. Statistical tests were performed by means of the two-tailed Student t-test.
Dose-response effects of compound 39
The administration of compound 39 (0.04 to 0.63 mg/kg) at the onset of the light period induced a dose-dependent increase of SWS2 combined with a dose-related deficit in W, SWS1 and PS throughout the 8 h recording period. Significant effects were observed from the lowest dose upwards. Sleep-wakefulness changes occurred mainly during the first 4 h period following the treatment but persisted into the second 4 h period.
As shown in Table 7, the SWS2-increasing effect of compound 39 was due to a marked prolongation of SWS2 episodes, whereas the number of episodes was reduced. For each of the other states (W, SWS1, and PS) the number of episodes was also decreased while their mean duration rather tended to be enhanced.
Comparison with Ritanserin Effects
Dose-response effects of 6-[2-[4-[bis(4-fluorophenyl)methylene]-1-piperidinyl]ethyl]-7-methyl-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one, which is generically known as ritanserin (0.04 to 2.5 mg/kg) have been previously analyzed in a separated group of 8 rats (Dugovic C., Wauquier A., Leysen J. E., Marrannes R. and Janssen P. A. J., Psychopharmacology, 97: 436-442, 1989). At the dose of 0.63 mg/kg ritanserin induced a significant increase of SWS2 for 8 h at the expense of W, SWS1 and PS.
Conversely, doses of 0.04 and 0.16 mg/kg of ritanserin produced no major effects on sleep-wakefulness patterns, whereas the same doses of compound 39 induced a significant sleep-wakefulness response. Thus, compound 39 was effective at a 10-fold lower dose than that of ritanserin. Moreover, a clear dose-related response was obtained with compound 39 but not with ritanserin.

Example 26
The useful neuroleptic properties of the second subgroup of compounds of formula (I) wherein R.sup.1 is a radical of formula (a-1), (a-2) or (a-3) and X is CH or X is N in case R.sup.1 is a radical of formula (a-2), said compounds being exemplified in Tables 1, 3, 4 and 6, can clearly be demonstrated in the "Combined Apomorphine, Tryptamine and Norepinephrine test in rats" which is described in Arch. Int. Pharmacodyn. Ther., 227, 238-253, 1977. Further the activity of the subject compounds as serotonin antagonists is evidenced by the experimental data obtained in the "Gastric Lesions induced by compound 48/80 in rats" test, described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,335,127. Antihistaminic activity can be demonstrated by, e.g. the results obtained in the "Protection of Rats from compound 48/80 induced lethality" test, described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,556,660. All tests were carried out following the procedures described in the cited references and the experimental data are shown in Table 8.
