3(2H)pyridazinone, process for its preparation and anti-allergic agent containing it

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a 3(2H)pyridazinone which exhibits antagonism against slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis (SRS-A) which induces a contraction of bronchial smooth muscle, and thus is useful as an anti-allergic agent, a process for its preparation and a pharmaceutical composition containing it.
2. Discussion of the Background
SRS-A is believed to be a principal etiologic substance which induces immediate allergy such as bronchial asthma or allergic rhinitis. Therefore, a medicine which controls the pharmacological effect of SRS-A, i.e. a SRS-A antagonist, is expected to be a useful anti-allergic agent.
However, a very few medicinal substances show antagonism against SRS-A, and no instance of their practical application has been reported.
As an example of a compound which is somewhat similar to the compound of the present invention, Canadian Patent 784,639 (hereinafter referred t as reference (a)) disclose 2-C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkyl-4-chloro or bromo-5-benzylamino-3(2H)pyridazinone derivatives. However, the usefulness of the compounds disclosed in this reference (a) is restricted to a herbicide, and no mention is made as to its medical use or pharmacological activities.
As another example of a compound similar to the compound of the present invention, Chemical Abstract, 62, 2773b, (Bull. Soc. Chim, France, 1964 (9) p 2124-32) (reference (b)) discloses 2-methyl-4-chloro or bromo-5-benzylamino-3(2H)pyridazinones. This reference (b) is silent about medical use or pharmacological activities.
Likewise, as still another example of a compound similar to the compound of the present invention, published German Patent Application No. 1670169 (published on Nov. 5, 1970) (reference (c)) discloses 2-alkyl-4-chloro-5-arylalkylamino-3(2H)pyridazinones. This reference (c) discloses a process for the synthesis of pyridazinones including such compounds, their application for agricultural chemicals, their application as intermediates for medicines or dyestuffs, or their application as intermediates for various compounds. However, no mention is made to their pharmacological activities, and no specific examples are given for such compounds. Further, such compounds are not specifically described.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present inventors have synthesized and studied various compounds for antagonistic activities against SRS-A, and it has been surprisingly found that 3(2H)pyridazinones of the formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts exhibit antagonistic activities against SRS-A and thus are useful as an active ingredient for an anti-allergic agent.

Now, a process for the production of the compound of the formula I of the present invention will be described. The compound of the formula I may be prepared by the following reaction scheme 1:
Reaction scheme 1 ##STR7## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and Y.sub.3 are the same as defined above with respect to the formula I, and Z is chlorine or bromine.
Namely, the compound of the formula I can be prepared by reacting a 3(2H)pyridazinone compound of the formula II, i.e. one of starting materials, with a benzylamine derivative of the formula III or its acid salt in an inert solvent in the presence of a dehydrohalogenating agent as the case requires.
As the solvent, there may be employed an ether solvent such as diethyl ether, isopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or 1,4-dioxane, an amide solvent such as N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide or N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethyl sulfoxide, an alcohol solvent such as methanol, ethanol or 1-propanol, a hydrocarbon solvent such as toluene or benzene, a ketone solvent such as acetone or methyl ethyl ketone, an organic amine solvent such as pyridine or a trialkylamine, or water.
In the above reaction, if R.sub.2 is chlorine or bromine, there will be formed, in addition to the compound of the formula I, a compound of the formula: ##STR8## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.3, Z, Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and Y.sub.3 are the same as defined above with respect to the formula I, which is an isomer of the compound of the formula I with the 5-position substituted by benzylamino, as a by-product. The production rates of the compounds of the formulas I and IV depend upon the polarity of a solvent used. Namely, if a solvent having high polarity, such as water, a lower alcohol, an ether, an amide or dimethyl sulfoxide is used, the production rate of the compound of the formula I tends to be high. On the other hand, if a hydrocarbon solvent such as toluene or benzene is used, the production rate of the compound of the formula IV tends to increase.
Accordingly, in order to efficiently obtain the compound of the formula I, it is preferred to use a solvent having high polarity as mentioned above or to use a solvent mixture of water and an organic solvent, as the case requires.
The compound of the formula I may readily be separated and purified by fractional crystallization or by means of silica gel column chromatography.
As the dehydrohalogenating agent to be used, there may be employed an inorganic base, for instance, potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate or sodium hydrogencarbonate, and an organic base, for instance, a tertiary amine such as N,N-dimethylaniline, N,N-diethylaniline, trimethylamine or triethylamine, pyridine or methylethylpyridine. If necessary, a quarternary amine such as triethylbenzylammonium chloride may be added as an inter-phase transfer catalyst to the reaction system.
The reaction temperature may be within a range of from 10.degree. C. to the boiling point of the solvent used for the reaction.
The molar ratios of the starting materials may optionally be set. However, it is common to use from 1 to 5 mols, preferably from 1 to 3 mols, of the benzylamine derivative of the formula III relative to 1 mol of the pyridazinone derivative of the formula II.
The 3(2H)pyridazinone compound of the formula II having a substituent at the 2-position, i.e. one of starting materials, wherein both R.sub.2 and Z are the same and are chlorine or bromine, may be prepared by known processes as shown in reaction scheme 2 (for instance, Process 2-1 disclosed in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, Vol. 9, p. 257(1968) or Process 2--2 disclosed in Chemical Abstract, 62, 2772g).
Reaction scheme 2 ##STR9## wherein R.sub.1 is the same as defined above with respect to the formula I, and both R.sub.2 and Z are chlorine or bromine.
Process 2-1 is a reaction for the production of the compound of the formula II by the ring closure reaction of a hydrazine or its acid salt with a mucochloric acid or mucobromic acid. Process 2--2 is a reaction for the production of the compound of the formula II by reacting 4,5-(dichloro or bromo)-3(2H)pyridazinone with a compound of the formula R.sub.1 -Hal (wherein R.sub.1 is alkyl, and Hal is chlorine, bromine or iodine). For the production of the compound of the formula II, Process 2-1 or Process 2--2 may optionally be selected. While it is advantageous to employ Process 2-1 from the viewpoint of the yield and operation efficiency, it is usually advantageous to employ Process 2--2 when a hydrazine is commercially hardly available or difficult to produce economically.
The compound of the formula II wherein R.sub.2 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl, may be prepared by a process as shown in reaction scheme 3 or 4.
Reaction scheme 3 ##STR10## wherein R.sub.1 and Z are the same as defined above with respect to the formula II, X is bromine or iodine, and R.sub.2 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl.
Namely, such a compound may readily be prepared by reacting a 2-alkyl-4,5-di-(chloro or bromo)-3(2H)-pyridazinone of the formula: ##STR11## with a Grignard reagent of the formula R.sub.2 MgX in the presence of an inert gas. As the solvent, there may be employed a hydrocarbon solvent such as toluene or benzene, and an ether solvent such as tetrahydrofuran or ethyl ether.
The reaction temperature may be within a range of from 0.degree. C. to the boiling point of the solvent used for the reaction.
The molar ratios of the starting materials may optionally be set. However, it is common to use from 1 to 5 mols, preferably from 1 to 3 mols, of the Grignard reagent relative to 1 mol of the 4,5-di-(chloro or bromo)-3(2H)pyridazinone. ##STR12## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are the same as defined above with respect to reaction scheme 3, and Hal is the same as defined above with respect to Process 2--2.
Namely, the compound of the formula II may also be obtained by reacting 4,5-di-(chloro or bromo)-3(2H)-pyridazinone of the formula V having no substituent at the 2-position with a Grignard reagent of the formula R.sub.2 MgX to obtain a compound of the formula VI, and reacting the compound of the formula VI with an alkyl halide of the formula R.sub.1 Hal.
Step (a) may be conducted under the conditions similar to those of the reaction scheme 3. Likewise, Step (b) may be conducted in the same manner as in reaction scheme 2--2.
With respect to the other starting material, i.e. a benzylamine of the formula: ##STR13## wherein R.sub.3, Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and Y.sub.3 are as defined above, the one which is hardly available as a commercial product, may be prepared by a known process for the preparation of a benzylamine as shown by reaction scheme 5. ##STR14## (wherein T is C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 acyl or alkoxycarbonyl such as ethoxycarbonyl or t-butoxycarbonyl.) ##STR15## (wherein R.sub.10 and R.sub.11 are as defined above, and T' is alkoxycarbonyl such as ethoxycarbonyl or t-butoxy carbonyl.) ##STR16## (wherein R.sub.10 and R.sub.11 are as defined above.)
In each of processes A, B and C, the desired benzylamine is prepared by the treatment of the starting material with a reducing agent. The starting material is an intermediate aldoxime prepared by reacting the corresponding aldehyde with hydroxyamine or alkoxyamine in the case of Process A, the corresponding nitrile in the case of Process B, or the corresponding amide in the case of Process C. In Process D, the desired N-alkyl substituted benzylamine is prepared by the treatment of the corresponding N-acyl substituted or N-alkoxycarbonyl substituted benzylamine with a reducing agent.
Any one of Processes A to D may optionally be employed by using a commercially available product or a starting material derived from such a commercial product. As a method for reduction, there is known (1) a method wherein Raney nickel (nickel-aluminum alloy) is used in the presence of an alkali metal hydroxide such as sodium hydroxide, or (2) a method wherein sodium borohydride is used in the presence of an acid such as acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid or Lewis acid. A proper method for reduction is selected taking into account the substituents Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and Y.sub.3 on the phenyl ring, the economy and the chemical stability. For instance, the reduction method (1) is suitable when the substituents Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and Y.sub.3 have a substituent such as alkyl or alkoxy which is durable against a relatively strong reducing agent. Whereas, the reduction method (2) which is a relatively mild reduction method, is suitable when the substituents have a relatively unstable substituent such as a halogen, an olefin, an ester, an amine or an amide.
Process E is directed to the preparation of a benzylamine derivative having an amide bond by reacting a benzylamine having CO.sub.2 H as a substituent with a corresponding amine in the pressure of a dehydrating condensation agent such as N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide or ethyl chlorocarbonate.
Process F is directed to the preparation of a benzylamine having a substituted aminoalkyl group on the phenyl ring by treating a benzylamine derivative obtained by e.g. Process E with a reducing agent such as lithium aluminum hydride.
In general, a benzylamine reacts with carbon dioxide in air to form a carbonate. Therefore, for its isolation, it is advantageous, in most cases, to obtain it in the form of an acid salt such as a hydrochlorate or a sulfate. A hydrochlorate of benzylamine may be subjected by itself to the reaction with 4,5-di-(chloro or bromo-)-3(2H)pyridazinone.
The compound of the formula I wherein one, two or three of the substituents Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and Y.sub.3 are --C.sub.2 R.sub.15 (wherein R.sub.15 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl), may readily be prepared by esterifying a compound having the corresponding carboxyl group or its salt with a dialkyl sulfuric acid ester of the formula (R.sub.15 O).sub.2 (SO.sub.4 (wherein R.sub.15 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl) in the presence of an acid-binding agent such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, potassium or sodium carbonate or bicarbonate, or an organic amine, as shown in reaction scheme 6. ##STR17## (wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and R.sub.15 are the same as defined above with respect to the formula I.)
The compound of the formula I wherein one, two or of the substituents Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and Y.sub.3 are --CON(R )(R.sub.11), may readily be prepared by dehydrating and condensing a compound having the corresponding carboxyl group or its salt with HN(R.sub.10)(R.sub.11) in the presence of a dehydrating condensation agent such as N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide or ethyl chlorocarbonate, as shown in reaction scheme 7. ##STR18## (wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.10, R.sub.11, Y.sub.1 and Y.sub.2 are the same as defined above with respect to the formula I.)
The compound of the formula I wherein one, two or three of the substituents Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and Y.sub.3 are hydroxyl groups, may be prepared by directly reacting the corresponding benzylamine with the 3(2H)pyridazinone of the formula II. However, it may also readily be prepared by debenzylating a compound of the formula VII having the corresponding benzyloxy group by means of catalytic hydrogenation procedure generally used, hard acid (e.g. hydrogen chloride, trifluoroacetic acid) treatment, or a combination of a soft base with a hard acid (e.g. a combination of dimethyl sulfide with boron trifluoride), as shown in reaction scheme 8. ##STR19## (wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, Y.sub.1 and Y.sub.2 are the same as defined above with respect to the formula I.)
Likewise, a compound of the formula X having --O--(CH.sub.2).sub.q --R.sub.9 (wherein R.sub.9 and q are the same as defined above with respect to the formula I) may be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula VIII obtained by reaction scheme 8 with Hal--(CH.sub.2).sub.q --R.sub.9 of the formula IX (wherein Hal is the same as difined above with respect to reaction scheme 2--2 and R.sub.9 is as defined above), as shown in reaction scheme 9. ##STR20## (wherein Hal is as defined above, and R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.9, Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and q are the same as defined above with respect to the formula I.) Alternatively, the object may also be attained by subjecting a compound of the formula XI, i.e. one of compounds obtained by the method of reaction scheme 9, to a usual organic reaction whereby the functional group R.sub.9 is converted. One of specific examples will be shown in reaction scheme 10. ##STR21## (wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.7, Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2, Y.sub.3 and q are the same as defined above with respect to the formula I, and R.sub.16 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl.)
Step A is a process for preparing an amide of the formula XII by reacting --CO.sub.2 R.sub.16 of the compound of the formula XI with H.sub.2 NR.sub.3. Step B is a process for converting a compound of the formula XI to a carboxylic acid of the formula XIII by hydrolyzing it with a usual acid or alkali. Step C is a process for converting the carboxyl group of the compound of the formula XIII obtained in Step B to the alcohol of a compound of the formula XIV with a reducing agent such as sodium-bis-methoxyethoxyaluminum halide. Step D is a process for preparing a compound of the formula XV by alkylating the compound of the formula XIV obtained in Step C with e.g. an alkyl halide. (Specific manners for the respective steps will be given in Examples 5A-11A.)
The compound of the formula I wherein R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl, may readily be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula XVI with a metal hydride and then reacting the product with an alkyl halide of the formula: R.sub.3 -Hal (wherein R.sub.3 and Hal are as defined above), as shown in reaction scheme 11. ##STR22## (wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and Y.sub.3 are the same as defined above with respect to the formula I, and Hal is as defined above.)
As the organic solvent to be used, it is preferred to use an inert organic solvent such as dimethylformamide or tetrahydrofuran. As the alkali metal hydride, sodium hydride is preferred. The reaction temperature is preferably within a range of from -40.degree. to 10.degree. C. in the case of the reaction with an alkali metal hydride, and within a range of from -15.degree. to 70.degree. C. in the case of the reaction with an alkyl halide.
The compound of the formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen, may readily be prepared by dehalogenating the corresponding compound of the formula XVII wherein R.sub.2 is chlorine or bromine by a hydrogen addition method (a common hydrogen addition method wherein palladium-carbon is used as a catalyst), as shown in reaction scheme 12. ##STR23## (wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.3, Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and Y.sub.3 are the same as defined with respect to the formula, and R.sub.2 is chlorine or bromine.)
As the organic solvent to be used, a usual inert solvent may be employed. However, it is particularly preferred to employ an alcohol solvent such as ethanol or methanol. An organic amine such as triethylamine or pyridine may be added whereby the reaction proceeds smoothly. The reaction temperature may be within a range of from 10.degree. C. to the boiling point of the organic solvent used, but it is preferably within a range of from 20.degree. to 60.degree. C.
The compound of the formula I may readily be prepared by reacting 3(2H)pyridazinone of the formula XVIII having --NHR.sub.3 (wherein R.sub.3 is as defined above) at the 5-position with a benzyl halide of the formula XX or its derivative, as shown in reaction scheme 13. Namely, the compound of the formula I may also be prepared by reacting the 3(2H)pyridazinone of the formula XVIII with an alkali metal hydride such as sodium hydride in a solvent such as DMF or an ether solvent at a temperature of from 0 to 10.degree. C. to form the corresponding anion compound of the formula XIX, and then reacting it with a benzyl halide of the formula XX. ##STR24## (wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2, Y.sub.3 and Hal are as defined above.)
The reaction may be conducted in the same conditions as those in reaction scheme 11.

TEST EXAMPLES
A. Anti-allerqic activities
A major constituent of SRS-A which is an important mediator for immediate allergy such as bronchoconstiriction in bronchial asthma, has already been found to be leukotriene C.sub.4 (hereinafter referred to as LTC.sub.4), leukotriene D.sub.4 (hereinafter referred to as LTD.sub.4) or the like. Accordingly, antagonistic activities against SRS-A can be evaluated by any one of the following test methods:
(1) a method of examining the antagonistic activities against SRS-A obtained from a sensitized guinea-pig,
(2) a method of examining the antagonistic activities against LTC.sub.4, and
(3) a method of examining the antagonistic activities against LTD.sub.4.
The present inventors examined the antagonistic activities against SRS-A by using the test methods (1) to (3).
Now, the test methods and the results will be described.
Test methods of anti-allergic activities and the results
(i) SRS-A antagonism in quinea-pig ileum
SRS-A antagonism was determined against the contraction induced by SRS-A in isolated guinea-pig ileum. The SRS-A was prepared in accordance with the method of Brocklehurst (J. Physiol., 151, 416, 1960) and Kohno and Parker (J. Immunol., 125, 446, 1980). Adult male guinea-pigs (200-250 g) were sensitized with chick egg albumin (EA), 100 mg subcutaneously and 100 mg intraperitoneally. Three weeks later the animals were killed by a blow on the head and lungs were perfused free of blood with Tyrode solution passed through the right ventricle. Isolated lungs were chopped into pieces (1 mm.sup.3) by a scissors in Tyrode solution and filtrated with gauze, and then 1.0-1.3 g of chopped lung fragments were distributed into individual tubes (9.7 ml of Tyrode solution/tube). EA solution (0.3 ml) at a 3.times.10.sup.-4 g/ml final concentration was added to the tubes and incubated for 20 min at 37.degree. C., and then the supernatant was used for the SRS-A antagonism.
Assay for SRS-A antagonism was performed as follows: Ileum preparations isolated from male guinea-pig (300-400 g) were suspended under 0.5 g tension in organ baths (5 ml) containing Tyrode solution maintained at 30.degree. C. and gassed with 95% O.sub.2 +5% CO.sub.2. After the repeated responses to histamine (10.sup.-7 g/ml) was established, the contractile response to SRS-A (0.5 ml) was carried out in the presence of 10.sup.-6 M atropine and 10.sup.-6 M pyrilamine. Test compounds dissolved in 100% dimethyl sulfoxide were added to the organ baths (final concentration of 5.times.10.sup.-7 g/ml) 1 min prior to the SRS-A addition, and SRS-A-induced contractions were compared with those of control (SRS-A-induced contraction before the treatment). The SRS-A antagonism (%) =[1.0 - (SRS-A-induced contraction in test compound)/control].times.100

(ii) LTC.sub.4 and LTD.sub.4 antagonisms in guinea-pig trachea
Antagonism for LTC.sub.4 and LTD.sub.4 were determined in isolated guinea-pig trachea prepared as spiral strip. 10 Tracheal preparations were suspended under 1 g tension in ml organ baths and they were incubated for 1 hr prior to use. Contractile responses to LTC.sub.4 (2.times.10.sup.-8 g/ml) and LTD.sub.4 (2.times.10.sup.-8 g/ml) were obtained after the maximal response to histamine (10.sup.-4 M). Test compounds dissolved in 100% dimethyl sulfoxide were added to the organ baths (final concentration of 10.sup.-5 g/ml) 5 min prior to LTC.sub.4 and LTD.sub.4 addition, and then contractile responses to LTC.sub.4 and LTD.sub.4 were compared with those of control which was obtained from a paired trachea in the absence of test compounds. LTC.sub.4 - and LTD.sub.4 -induced contractions were expressed as a percentage of the maximal response to histamine. The antagonism was determined as follows: Antagonism (%)=(1.0-% contraction in test/% contraction in control).times.100

(iii) Effect on anaphylactic bronchoconstriction in passively sensitized guinea-pig
Male guinea-pigs (350-450 g) were passively sensitized with intravenous (i.v.) injection of 0.125 ml rabbit anti-EA serum (Cappel Laboratories) 1 day preceding the experiment. Antigen-induced anaphylactic bronchoconstrictions were measured by modified method of Konzett and Rossler (Arch. Exp. Path. Pharmak., 195, 71, 1940) Sensitized guinea-pigs were anaesthetized with intraperitoneal injection of urethane (1.5 g/kg). The right jugular vein was cannulated for the administration of the all agents and trachea was cannulated to record total pulmonary resistance. Guinea-pigs were artificially ventilated by a small animal respirator (Shinano, Model SN-480-7) set at a stroke volume of 4-5 ml and a rate of 50 breaths per min. The change in pulmonary resistance was measured with a pressure transducer (Nihon Kohden, Model TP-602T) connected to a T-tube on the tracheal cannula. The increase in air overflow volume was expressed as a percentage of the maximum bronchoconstriction obtained by clamping off the trachea. Following surgical preparation, the animals were pretreated with indomethacin (1.0 mg/kg, 10 min), pyrilamine (2 mg/kg, 6 min) and propranolol (0.1 mg/kg, 5 min) prior to the EA challenge (0.1 or 10 mg/kg). All test compounds, 2 mg/kg in 3% Tween 80 or 3% PEG-400, were administered 1 min before the EA challenge. Inhibition (%) of bronchoconstriction was determined as follows Inhibition (%)=(1.0% -maximum bronchoconstriction in test/% maximum bronchoconstriction in control) .times.100. The maximum bronchoconstriction was obtain-d within 20 min after the EA challenge and its control value was 73.+-.9% (mean.+-.S.D., n=4). The number of test animals was 2 and the mean inhibition was compared with that of FPL-55712 (Fisons Limited) of the following formula: ##STR25##

(iv) Effect on bronchoconstriction induced by intravenous (i.v.) administration of LTD.sub.4
Bronchoconstrictions induced by i.v. administration of LTD.sub.4 in guinea-pigs (350-450 g) were measured as described in anaphylactic bronchoconstriction. Guinea-pigs were anaesthetized with urethane (1.5 g/kg) and the trachea was cannulated to record total pulmonary resistance. The right jugular vein was cannulated for the administration of the all agents. The guinea-pigs were artificially ventilated by a small respirator set at a stroke volume of 5 ml and a rate of 50 breaths per min. LTD.sub.4 (2 .mu.g/kg)-induced bronchoconstriction was shown by the increase in air overflow volume. After the response to histamine (5 .mu.g/kg) was checked, the first response to LTD.sub.4 was obtain-d as control. Test compounds, 2 mg/kg in Tween 80, were administered 2 min prior to the second response to LTD.sub.4, because there was no difference between the first response and the second response to LTD.sub.4. Inhibition (%) of the bronchoconstriction was determined as follows: Inhibition (%) =(1.0 -peak value in the second response/peak value in the first response).times.100. Results in all of the experiments were compared with those of FPL-55712 (Fisons Limited).

To 7.2 g of metal magnesium in 10 ml of dried ethyl ether, 33.5 g (0.25 mol) of methyl iodide was dropwise added in a nitrogen stream to prepare a Grignard reagent. After the completion of the dropwise addition of methyl iodide, 1000 ml of dried toluene was added to the mixture. The solution was heated to a temperature of from 60.degree. to 70.degree. C., and methyl iodide was further added until magnesium was completely dissolved. The Grignard reagent was cooled to room temperature, and a solution obtained by dissolving 22.1 g (0.1 mol) of 2-t-butyl-4,5-dichloro-3(2H)pyridazinone in 200 ml of dried toluene, was dropwise added over a period of 20 minutes. After the completion of the dropwise addition, the mixture was reacted at room temperature for 1.5 hours, and a mixed solution of 100 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 900 ml of ice water was poured in the reaction solution for liquid separation. Then, the organic layer was washed with 500 ml of 10% sodium hydroxide and 500 ml of water, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and then the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain 17. 2 g of a crude product. This crude product was subjected to distillation (boiling point: 60.degree.-62.degree.
