In some circumstances, the addition of an appropriate base such as, for example, an alkali metal carbonate or hydrogen carbonate, sodium hydride or an organic base such as, for example, N,N-diethylethanamine or N-(1-methylethyl)-2-propanamine and/or the addition of an iodide salt, preferably an alkali metal iodide, may be appropriate. Somewhat elevated temperatures may enhance the rate of the reaction.
The compounds of formula (I) can also be derived from a 1,4-dihydropyridine derivative of formula (VI) following art-known reducing procedures. ##STR13## Suitable reducing procedures are, for example, a catalytic hydrogenation in a suitable solvent, e.g. methanol, ethanol and the like, in the presence of a suitable catalyst, e.g., platinum-on-charcoal, palladium-on-charcoal and the like catalysts.

The addition of an appropriate base such as, for example, an alkali metal carbonate or hydrogen carbonate, sodium hydride or an organic base such as, for example, N,N-diethylethanamine or N-(1-methylethyl)-2-propanamine may be utilized to pick up the acid which is liberated during the course of the reaction. In some circumstances the addition of an iodide salt, preferably an alkali metal iodide, is appropriate. Somewhat elevated temperatures may enhance the rate of the reaction.
The compounds of formula (I-b) can also be prepared by the reductive N-alkylation reaction of (I-c-1) with an appropriate carbonyl-compound of formula L.sup.2-a .dbd.C.dbd.O (VIII), said L.sup.2-a .dbd.C.dbd.O being a compound of formula L.sup.2 -H wherein a --CH.sub.2 -- radical is oxidated to a carbonyl radical. ##STR20##
The compounds of formula (I-b), wherein L.sup.2 is a radical of formula L.sup.1 --C.sub.r H.sub.2r --NR.sup.3 --C.sub.s H.sub.2s --, said compounds being represented by the formula (I-b-3) may alternatively be prepared by the reductive N-alkylation reaction of a compound of formula (I), wherein L is a radical of formula HN(R.sup.3)--C.sub.s H.sub.2s --, (I-d), with an appropriate carbonyl-compound of formula L.sup.1 --(C.sub.r H.sub.2r-1).dbd.O, (IX), said L.sup.1 --(C.sub.r H.sub.2r-1).dbd.O being a compound of formula L.sup.1 --C.sub.r H.sub.2r --H wherein a --CH.sub.2 -- radical is oxidated to a carbonyl radical.

Said reductive N-alkylation reaction may conveniently be carried out by catalytically hydrogenating a mixture of the reactants in a suitable reaction-inert organic solvent according to art-known catalytic hydrogenating procedures. The reaction mixture may be stirred and/or heated in order to enhance the reaction rate. Suitable solvents are, for example, water; lower alkanols, e.g. methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol and the like; cyclic ethers, e.g. 1,4-dioxane and the like; halogenated hydrocarbons, e.g. trichloromethane and the like; N,N-dimethylformamide; dimethyl sulfoxide and the like; or a mixture of 2 or more of such solvents.

EXAMPLE 108
A mixture of 6 parts of 5-chloro-1-[(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-6-methoxy-2-[[1-[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl]-4-piperidinyl]methyl]-1H-benzimidazole and 75 parts of a hydrobromic acid solution 48% in water was stirred and heated overnight at 80.degree. C. Water and ammonium hydroxide were added. After stirring, the product was extracted with trichloromethane. The extract was dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel using a mixture of trichloromethane and methanol, saturated with ammonia, (95:5 by volume) as eluent. The pure fractions were collected and the eluent was evaporated. The residue was converted into the ethanedioate salt in ethanol. The salt was filtered off and dried, yielding 3.8 parts (49%) of 4-[2-[4-[[5-chloro-1-[(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-6-methoxy-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]methyl]-1-piperidinyl]ethyl]phenol ethanedioate(1:2); mp. 228.5.degree.

The useful antihistaminic properties of the compounds of formula (I) are demonstrated in the following test procedure.
Protection of rats from compound 48/80-induced lethality
Compound 48/80, a mixture of oligomers obtained by condensation of 4-methoxy-N-methylbenzeneethanamine and formaldehyde has been described as a potent histamine releasing agent (Int. Arch. Allergy, 13, 336 (1958)). The protection from compound 48/80-induced lethal circulatory collapse appears to be a simple way of evaluating quantitatively the antihistaminic activity of test compounds. Male rats of an inbred Wistar strain, weighing 240-260 g were used in the experiment. After overnight starvation the rats were transferred to conditioned laboratories (temp.=21.+-.1.degree. C., relative humidity=65+5%). The rats were treated subcutaneously or orally with a test compound or with the solvent (NaCl solution, 0.9%). One hour after treatment there was injected intravenously compound 48/80, freshly dissolved in water, at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg (0.2 ml/100 g of body weight). In control experiments, wherein 250 solvent-treated animals were injected with the standard dose of compound 48/80, not more than 2.8% of the animals survived after 4 hours. Survival after 4 hours is therefore considered to be a safe criterion of a protective effect of drug administration. The ED.sub.50 -values of the compounds of formula (I) are listed in the first column of tables 1 to 4. Said ED.sub.50 -values are the values in mg/kg body weight at which the tested compounds protect 50% of the tested animals against compound 48/80-induced lethality. The compounds of formula (I) and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof are also potent serotonin-antagonists. The potency of the subject compounds as serotonin-antagonists is clearly evidenced by the results obtained in the following tests wherein the antagonistic activity of the subject compounds on the effect of serotonin is examined.
Antagonistic activity on the effects of serotonin in the gastric lesion test.
A. Lesions induced by compound 48/80:
Compound 48/80 (a mixture of oligomers obtained by condensation of 4-methoxy-N-methylbenzeneethanamine and formaldehyde) is a potent releaser of vasoactive amines from endogenous stores such as, for example, histamine and serotonin. Rats injected with compound 48/80 exhibit consistent changes of blood flow in different vascular beds: cyanosis of the ears and the extremities are prominent within five minutes after injection of the compound; the rats die from shock within 30 minutes. The shock, followed by dead, can be avoided if the rats are pretreated with a classical H 1 antagonist. However the stimulatory effects on gastric secretion are not suppressed so that rats treated with compound 48/80 and protected from shock by an H 1 antagonist may exhibit all signs of intensive gastric gland activity: gross autopsy shows distended stomachs with abnormal contents and rough bright red patches all over the mucosa, corresponding to areas of disintegrated glands. A number of known serotonin-antagonists such as, for example, methysergide, cyproheptadine; cinanserin, mianserin, pipamperone, spiperone, pizotifen and metergoline, prevent completely the cyanosis of ears and extremities as well as the lesions in the glandular area of the stomach and the abnormal gastric distension.
B. Method:
Male rats of a Wistar inbred strain, weighing 220-250 g, were starved overnight, water being available ad libitum. The test compounds were administered orally as a solution or as a suspension in aqueous medium. A control rat and a "blank" rat received the test compound. One hour later 5-[4-(diphenylmethyl)1-piperazinylmethyl]-1-methyl-1H-benzimidazole-2-methanol was administered subcutaneously to all rats at the dose of 2.5 mg/kg. Two hours after the oral or subcutaneous administration of the test compound, the compound 48/80 (freshly solved in water at a concentration of 0.25 mg/ml) was injected intravenously into all rats (dose: 1 mg/kg) except the "blank" rats. Four hours after the intravenous injection of compound 48/80, the rats were decapitated and the stomachs were removed. Subsequently the stomachs were inspected for distension and contents (blood, fluid, food) and thoroughly rinsed. The macroscopic lesions were scored from 0 to +++, 0 corresponding to complete absence of visible lesions and the highest score corresponding to reddish rough patches covering more than half the glandular area.
The second column of tables 1-4 show for a number of compounds of formula (I) the doses (in mg/kg body weight) at which the distension of the stomach as well as the lesions in the glandular area of the stomach are completely absent in 50% of the test rats (ED.sub.50 -value).
The compounds listed in table 1 are not given for the purpose of limiting the invention thereto but only to exemplify the useful pharmacological activities of all the compounds within the scope of formula (I).

In view of their antihistaminic and serotonin-antagonistic properties, the compounds of formula (I) and their acid-addition salts are very useful in the treatment of allergic diseases such as, for example, allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivities, chronic urticaria, allergic astma and the like.
In view of their useful antihistaminic and serotonin-antagonistic activity, 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 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 wettable 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, 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.
"Active ingredient" (A.I.) as used throughout these examples relates to a compound of formula (I), a possible stereochemically isomeric form or pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof.
EXAMPLE 110: ORAL DROPS
500 Grams of the A.I. was dissolved in 0.5 liters of 2-hydroxypropanoic acid and 1.5 liters of the polyethylene glycol at 60.degree.-80.degree. C. After cooling to 30.degree.-40.degree. C. there were added 35 liters of polyethylene glycol and the mixture was stirred well. Then there was added a solution of 1750 grams of sodium saccharin in 2.5 liters of purified water and while stirring there were added 2.5 liters of cocoa flavor and polyethylene glycol q.s. to a volume of 50 liters, providing an oral drop solution comprising 10 milligrams of the A.I. per milliliter. The resulting solution was filled into suitable containers.
EXAMPLE 111: ORAL SOLUTION
9 Grams of methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate and 1 gram of propyl 4-hydroxybenzoate were dissolved in 4 liters of boiling purified water. In 3 liters of this solution were dissolved first 10 grams of 2,3-dihydroxybutanedioic acid and thereafter 20 grams of the A.I. The latter solution was combined with the remaining part of the former solution and 12 liters 1,2,3-propanetriol and 3 liters of sorbitol 70% solution were added thereto. 40 Grams of sodium saccharin were dissolved in 0.5 liters of water and 2 milliliters of raspberry and 2 milliliters of gooseberry essence were added. The latter solution was combined with the former, water was added q.s. to a volume of 20 liters providing an oral solution comprising 20 milligrams of the active ingredient per teaspoonful (5 milliliters). The resulting solution was filled in suitable containers.
EXAMPLE 112: CAPSULES
20 Grams of the A.I., 6 grams sodium lauryl sulfate, 56 grams starch, 56 grams lactose, 0.8 grams colloidal silicon dioxide, and 1.2 grams magnesium stearate were vigorously stirred together. The resulting mixture was subsequently filled into 1000 suitable hardened gelating capsules, comprising each 20 milligrams of the active ingredient.
EXAMPLE 113: FILM-COATED TABLETS
Preparation of tablet core
A mixture of 100 grams of the A.I., 570 grams lactose and 200 grams starch was mixed well and thereafter humidified with a solution of 5 grams sodium dodecyl sulfate and 10 grams polyvinylpyrrolidone in about 200 milliliters of water. The wet powder mixture was sieved, dried and sieved again. Then there was added 100 grams microcrystalline cellulose and 15 grams hydrogenated vegetable oil. The whole was mixed well and compressed into tablets, giving 10.000 tablets, each containing 10 milligrams of the active ingredient.
Coating
To a solution of 10 grams methyl cellulose in 75 milliliters of denatured ethanol there was added a solution of 5 grams of ethyl cellulose in 150 milliliters of dichloromethane. Then there were added 75 milliliters of dichloromethane and 2.5 milliliters 1,2,3-propanetriol. 10 Grams of polyethylene glycol was molten and dissolved in 75 milliliters of dichloromethane. The latter solution was added to the former and then there were added 2.5 grams of magnesium octadecanoate, 5 grams of polyvinylpyrrolidone and 30 milliliters of concentrated colour suspension (Opaspray K-1-2109) and the whole was homogenated.
The tablet cores were coated with the thus obtained mixture in a coating apparatus.
EXAMPLE 114: INJECTABLE SOLUTION
1.8 Grams methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate and 0.2 grams propyl 4-hydroxybenzoate were dissolved in about 0.5 liters of boiling water for injection. After cooling to about 50.degree. C. there were added while stirring 4 grams lactic acid, 0.05 propylene glycol and 4 grams of the A.I. The solution was cooled to room temperature and supplemented with water for injection q.s. ad 1 liter volume, giving a solution of 4 milligrams A.I. per milliliters. The solution was sterilized by filtration (U.S.P. XVII p. 811) and filled in sterile containers.
EXAMPLE 115: SUPPOSITORIES
3 Grams A.I. was dissolved in a solution of b 3 grams 2,3-dihydroxybutanedioic acid in 25 milliliters polyethylene glycol 400. 12 Grams surfactant and triglycerides q.s. ad 300 grams were molten together. The latter mixture was mixed well with the former solution. The thus obtained mixture was poured onto moulds at a temperature of 37.degree.-38.degree. C. to form 100 suppositories each containing 30 milligrams of the active ingredient.
The present invention is also related with a method of treating allergic diseases in warm-blooded animals suffering from said allergic diseases by administering an effective anti-allergic amount of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof.
Suitable doses administered daily to subjects are varying from 0.1 to 100 mg, more preferably from 1 to 50 mg.
