The above-indicated chemical compounds as well as their physiologically acceptable organic or inorganic salts may enter, as active substances, into the preparation of medicaments presenting a group of therapeutic and pharmacological properties of great value.
The medicaments according to the invention exert an action on the central nervous system, particularly anxiolytic.
These pharmacological properties have been studied by taking as a reference substance trimetozine (marketed under the trademark OPALENE).
The medicaments according to the invention are advantageously used in the treatment of neurotic disorders, with anxiety, irritability and character troubles.
The compounds which enter into the medicaments according to the invention are for this purpose conditioned with the traditional excipients and adjuvants, particularly those used for oral administration such as tablets, powders, capsules, drinkable ampoulae or ampoulae for administration in injectable solution form, or suppositories.
The administration of medicaments containing compounds according to the invention is effected preferably orally and the doses of said administered compounds are preferably comprised between 1 and 1000 mg, and particularly between 5 and 250 mg/day, according to the method of administration.
An example of pharmaceutical composition according to the invention is constituted by a tablet or a capsule containing 5 or 10 mg of one at least of the above-defined compounds.
By way of examples, various tests for the establishment of the pharmacological properties of the compounds according to the invention are reported hereafter.
STUDY OF TOXICITY
The results relating to the toxicity are reported below in the following table II.

For the compounds no. 1 393 and 1 402, the LD.sub.0 is superior to 2 000 mg/kg by oral route.
For compounds no. 1 400 and 1 427, the LD.sub.0 is respectively in the order of 250 and 500 mg/kg, whilst the LD.sub.50 is respectively of about 700 and about 800 mg/kg.
The following compounds: no. 1 393, 1 400, 1 402, 1 427, 1 243, 1 292, 1 295, 1 245, 1 298 have shown that the ratio between the effective dose and the toxicity is satisfactory, which must lead to a satisfactory therapeutic index.
STUDY OF THE PROPERTIES OF THE COMPOUNDS ACCORDING TO THE INVENTION IN THE 4 PLATES TEST
The test with 4 plates or trial of suppressive conditioning was described by SLOTNIK and JARVID (Science, 1966, 154, 1 207-1 208) in 1968, then developed by ARON-SAMUEL (These Doctorat Etat Medecine Paris 1970).
By means of this test, this author had studied substances belonging to various families of psychotropes and only tranquillizers (minor tranquillizers) have affected the behavior of mice at doses inactive on the motility. According to SIMON and COLONNA, it is an excellent method of sorting tranquillizing substances ("for better knowing and prescribing the psychotropic agents", PIL Ed. Paris 1982).
MATERIAL AND METHOD
Active principle
The method is based on the attenuation or suppression of the anxiety state induced by electric shocks on movement of the animals (mice) into a special enclosure.
The anxiolytic effect is manifested by an increase in movements at doses not affecting motility.
Animals
Swiss male mice derived from CERJ (53680 Le Genest) of a body weight of 20-22 g, acclimatized for 8 days in the animal section of the laboratory. For each dose, the groups are of 15 animals which have not undergone the test.
Equipment
The apparatus was of the Apelex type.
It is composed of a parallelepipedic box of white plastic material, provided with a lid of transparent plexiglas, mobile by means of two hinges. The floor, which is rectangular, is constituted by four plates of conductive metal of which the distance between one another and the walls of the box is of 0.5 cm.
These plates are connected to an Apelex impulse generator. The potential difference when there is no impulse is, nil between two plates on a diagonal and is of 180 Volts between two adjacent plates. A trigger enables that a constant electrical current pulse be sent (of 0 to 2 milliamperes) for a selected time (from 0.1 to 5 seconds).
Procedure
The operation is carried out in a silent area at constant temperature, the experimenter overlooking the box so that he can follow all the movements of the mice placed on one of the plates. The trigger is spaced away from the box in order that the noice does not modify the behavior of the animal.
For each animal, the experiment is carried out according to the following modalities:
preliminary exploration of 15 seconds, without electric shock;
punished exploration (electric shock for each movement between two ajdacent plates) for 60 seconds.
The electric shocks have a duration of 0.5 secondsand an intensity of 0.6 milliampere.
In each test, the mice are treated by the oral route 60 minutes before the test, either with the pharmacological substances (compounds according to the invention no. 1 505, 1 260, 1 299, 1 503, 1 504, 1 500, 1 406, 1 403, 1 408, 1 502, 1 243, 1 290, 1 294, 1 307, 1 405, 1 213, 1 253, 1 488) or the solvent alone (control batch).
The products are administered in a single dose of 25 mg/kg, orally, by gastric intubation in a 3% carboxymethylcellulose solution, 60 minutes before the test.
The controls receive only carboxymethylcellulose.
EXPRESSION OF THE RESULTS
The results are expressed as percentage of increase in the number of punished passages with respect to the control batch (increase percentage).
RESULTS
They are collected in following table III.

The results of these tests show the anxiolytic activity of the tested compounds. The compounds of the invention no. 1 505, 1 260, 1 299, 1 503, 1 504, 1 500 1 406, 1 403 and 1 408 which have a percentage increase higher than 20% are revealed to be particularly active.
The test with 4 plates has also been carried out on another class of cmpounds according to the invention, using the procedure indicated above and modified as follows.
The mice are treated orally 60 minutes before the test, either with the pharmacological substances (compounds according to the invention no. 1 407, 1 306, 1 426, 1 334, 1 425, 1 428, 1 301, 1 270, 1 265, 1 242, 1 224, 1 247, 1 304, 1 295, 1 211, 1 390, 1 396, 1 274, 1 389, 1 245, 1 427, 1 404, 1 302, 1 214, 1 264, 1 220, 1 400, 1 402 or trimetozine) or the solvent alone (control batch).
The products are administered in a single dose of 5 mg/kg, orally, by gastric intubation, in a 0.1% carboxymethylcellulose solution, 60 minutes before the test.
The controlled receive only carobymethylcellulose.
EXPRESSION OF THE RESULTS
The results are expressed by the index in the variation of the number of punished passages with respect to trimetozine used as a reference (index 100). The index O corresponds to a control batch.
RESULTS
The results obtained are collected in table IV below.

The results of these tests confirm the anxiolytic activity of the compounds of this series.
A preferred class of compounds is constituted by those which have a variation index higher than 50, that is to say the compounds no. 1 407, 1 306, 1 426, 1 334 1 425, 1 428, 1 301, 1 270, 1 265, 1 242, 1 224, 1 247, 1 304, 1 295, 1 211, 1 390, 1 396, 1 274, 1 389.
