According to method step (a), at least twice the equivalent amount of amine is added, since one mol of amine is required to bind the hydrogen halide that has been split off; but in some cases, it is advantageous to use an up to 15-fold excess of amine to accelerate the reaction. As solvents, there are mentioned, inasfar as they are used for the reaction, inert anhydrous organic solvents, such as dioxan, 1,2-dimethoxy-ethane, diethylene-glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene-glycol dibutyl ether, benzene, toluene, xylene, chlorobenzene, dichlorobenzene, trichlorobenzene, N,N'-dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide or hexamethyl-phosphoric acid triamide. The reaction is generally carried out at temperatures of from 50.degree. to 220.degree. C., preferably from 80.degree. to 180.degree. C.
According to method step (b), the carboxylic acids of formula III are converted according to the usual method of ester or amide formation, for example via the acid chlorides or the mixed anhydrides, into the esters or amides. For the esterification with alcohols which still contain secondary amino groups, the salts of the amino alcohols are used.
For the method step (c), the test conditions disclosed for method (a) are applicable.
According to method step (d), the secondary amino groups are reacted according to known methods; for example, formylation is performed by heating with formiates, acylation by reaction with acid chlorides and alkylation with haloalkyl compounds.
According to method step (e), the compounds of formula VI are reacted according to known methods (e.g. A. Deberly and J. Bourdais, Tetrahedron Letters 1971, p. 3049) with acid chlorides, chloroformiates or with dimethylformamide/phosphorus oxychloride.
According to method step (f), the principle of method (a) is followed but, in most cases, higher temperatures are required for the exchange of the alkoxy group as compared to the halogen atom.
The starting compounds for methods (a) to (e) may be prepared as disclosed in copending patent application Ser. No. 751,090 filed Dec. 16, 1976, now abandoned.
According to this patent application, for example, an optionally substituted oxindole is reacted with phosphoroxychloride or -bromide and dimethylformamide in a solvent, for example, toluene, at a temperature of about 30.degree. C. to give the corresponding 2-chloro-(or-bromo)-indol-3-carboxaldehyde. The aldehyde so obtained is then oxidized according to the usual methods, for example potassium permanganate, to give the corresponding carboxylic acid, which can then be converted, according to the usual methods of the ester or amide formation, for example, via an acid chloride or a mixed anhydride, into an ester or an amide. The esterification with alcohols, which additionally contain secondary amino groups, is carried out using the salts of the amino alcohols. The compounds obtained according to the last-mentioned method, can be further alkylated with the usual alkylation agents on the secondary amino group.
The compounds of the invention have valuable therapeutic properties. For example, in addition to other pharmacological properties, they have an effect on the cardiac circulation that appears in a hypotensive effect and especially in an antiarrhythmic activity. Therefore, these compounds are suitable for the treatment of disturbances in the cardiac rhythm. This antiarrhythmic activity was established on dogs that had been poisoned with strophanthin, on cats that had been exposed to hypothermia and by means of the digitoxin-aconitin fibrillation test on the guinea pig-Langendorff heart.
The novel compounds may be used alone or in admixture with pharmacologically acceptable carrier material. For oral administration the active compounds are mixed with the usual substances and brought into the usual dosage unit forms by known methods, for example tablets, gelatin capsules, aqueous, alcoholic or oily suspensions or aqueous, alcoholic or oily solutions. As inert carrier material, there may be used, for example, magnesium carbonate, lactose or corn starch, in conjunction with other substances, for example magnesium stearate. The composition may be in the form of dry or moist granules. Vegetable and animal oils, for example sunflower oil or castor oil are especially useful as oily carrier materials or solvents.
Especially advantageous is the intravenous administration. For this purpose, the active compounds or the physiologically acceptable salts thereof are dissolved together with the usual substances. Such physiologically acceptable salts are formed with the following acids, for example: hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid or hydroiodic acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, methyl-sulfuric acid, amidosulfonic acid, nitric acid; formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, succinic acid, tartaric acid, lactic acid, malonic acid, fumaric acid, oxalic acid, citric acid, malic acid, mucic acid, benzoic acid, salicylic acid, aceturic acid, embonic acid, naphthalene-1,5-disulfonic acid, ascorbic acid, phenylacetic acid, p-aminosalicyclic acid, hydroxyethane-sulfonic acid, benzene-sulfonic acid, or synthetic resins containing acid groups, for example those having an ion exchanger effect.
As solvents of the corresponding physiologically acceptable salts of the active compounds suitable for intravenous administration, there are mentioned, for example, water, a physiological sodium chloride solution or alcohols, for example ethanol, propane-diol or glycerol; furthermore, sugar solutions, for example glucose or mannitol solutions, or mixtures of the various solvents mentioned.
