DETAILED DESCRIPTION
According to this invention we provide novel compounds of the formula I, ##STR2## wherein, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4, which may be the same or different independently represent hydrogen, C.sub.1-6 alkyl, phenyl or phenyl substituted by one or more halogen, hydroxyl, nitro, amino, C.sub.1-6 alkyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkoxy groups;
R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 independently represent hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl or C.sub.3 -C.sub.6 cycloalkyl , or R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 together with the nitrogen form a C.sub.4-6 N heterocycle;
m represents an integer from 1-2; and
n represents an integer from 1-3;
provided that,
two of the substituents R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 independently represent phenyl or substituted phenyl and the other two independently represent hydrogen or C.sub.1-6 alkyl;
or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof.
Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of the compounds of formula I include salts of mineral acids, for example, hydrohalic acids, e.g. hydrochloric or hydrobromic; or organic acids, e.g. formic, acetic or lactic acids. The acid may be polybasic, for example sulphuric, fumaric, maleic or citric acid.
This invention also relates to all stereoisomeric forms and optical enantiomeric forms of the compounds of formula I.
According to the invention there is also provided a process for the preparation of compounds of formula I or pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts or solvates thereof, which comprises,
a ) preparing a compound of formula I by reacting a corresponding compound of formula II, ##STR3## wherein X is a suitable leaving group with a corresponding amine of the formula R.sub.5 R.sub.6 NH, or
b) preparing a compound of formula I in-which n is 2 or by reacting a corresponding compound of formula III, ##STR4## with a corresponding compound of formula IV, ##STR5## wherein X is a suitable leaving group and R.sub.5 or R.sub.6 are as defined above or optionally may constitute a protecting group, or
c) preparing a compound of formula I containing one or more amino or hydroxyl groups by removing a protecting group from a compound of formula I in which one or more of the amino or hydroxyl groups is protected, and
where desired or necessary converting the resulting compound of formula I into a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof or vice versa.
In the reaction of process (a) suitable leaving groups X are represented by, for example, halogen, preferably chlorine, bromine or iodine, or an alkyl- or arylsulfonate group for example methanesulfonate or p-toluenesulfonate. The amination reaction may be carried out in a suitable inert solvent, for example an aprotic solvent such as toluene or tetrahydrofuran and at a temperature of, for example from -80.degree.-120.degree. C.
In the reaction of process (b), in which the leaving group X may be the same as in process (a), the alkylation reaction may be carried out in the presence of a base, for example, an alkali hydroxide such as potassium hydroxide in a polar solvent, for example, dimethylsulfoxide, ethanol or water or mixtures thereof. Suitable protecting groups that R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 may together constitute include: a urethane protecting group such as benzyloxycarbonyl (CBZ) or t-butyloxycarbonyl (BOC); or R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached may form a phthalimide group.
In process (c) the amine protecting groups may be removed by either catalytic hydrogenation for the CBZ group, a suitable catalyst being palladium or platinum on carbon, and the reaction being suitably carried out in an inert solvent such as methanol; treatment with an acid such as trifluoracetic or hydrochloric acid for the BOC group; or treatment with hydrazine in a lower alkanol such as ethanol for the phthalimide group.
Acid addition salts of compounds of formula I may be formed by reacting the free base, or a salt or derivative thereof with one or more equivalents of the appropriate acid. The reaction may be carried out in a solvent in which the salt is insoluble or in which the salt is soluble or in mixtures of the solvents. Acid addition salts may be converted to the free base by the action of a stronger base.
The starting materials for reactions (a) to (c) may be prepared by a number of methods, for example, d) the compounds of formula II may be prepared by,
1) reacting the corresponding compound of formula III, ##STR6## with formaldehyde to give a compound of formula V, ##STR7##
2) reacting the compound of formula V with a halogenating agent or an alkyl- or arylsulfonyl halide to give the corresponding compound of formula II.
The reaction with formaldehyde may be carried out in a suitable solvent, for example, a protic solvent such as aqueous alcoholic media, for example, aqueous ethanol in the presence of a base such as sodium hydroxide, and at a temperature of, for example, from 20.degree.-100.degree. C. The resulting hydroxymethyl derivative may be reacted with, for example, a halogenating reagent such as thionyl chloride, in an inert solvent such as, for example, methylene chloride or benzene. The halogenation reaction may be carried at a temperature of, for example, from 0.degree.-100.degree. C. Alternatively the hydroxy compound may be reacted with an alkyl- or arylsulfonyl halide in the presence of a base, for example, pyridine or triethylamine in a suitably inert solvent such as toluene or tetrahydrofuran, and at a temperature of, for example, from 20.degree.-120.degree. C.
The intermediate compounds of formula III are either well known or may be prepared from compounds known per se by conventional methods according to literature procedures for the known compounds or suitable modifications thereof as described in the examples.
Methods for preparing phenyl and substituted-phenyl 2-pyrrolidinones and 2-piperidinones may be found in:

Y Yamawaki et al, Y. Zasshi, 97 ( 2 ) , 177 ( 1977 ) , which are hereby incorporated by reference.
In the compounds of formula I: alkyl groups which R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 may represent include methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, iso-butyl and s-butyl;

The compounds of formula I, and their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts, are useful because they possess pharmacological activity in animals. In particular, the compounds have useful anti-epileptic properties as demonstrated by their ability to inhibit maximal electroshock (MES) induced seizures in mice. Antiepileptic activity may be measured by assessing a compound's ability to prevent the hind limb tonic extension component of the seizure in groups of mice induced by maximal electroshock (MES) after oral or intraperitoneal administration according to the procedures of the Epilepsy Branch, NINCDS as published by R. J. Porter, et al., Cleve. Clin. Quarterly 1984, 51, 293, and compared to the standard agents dilantin and phenobarbital. Activities (ED.sub.50 's) in the range of 10-400 m/k after oral administration in this assay system were obtained.
Anti-epileptic properties of a compound may also be determined by measuring the effects of the compound on mouse central neurons in cell culture. Methods for assessing a compounds ability to inhibit sustained high frequency repetitive firing of sodium dependent action potentials are described by McLean et al, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 227, 779-789 (1983).
For the above-mentioned uses the dosage administered will, of course, vary with the compound employed, the mode of administration and the treatment desired. However, in general, satisfactory results are obtained when the compounds are administered at a daily dosage of from about 0.1 mg to about 20 mg per kg of animal body weight, preferably given in divided doses 1 to 4 times a day or in sustained release form. For man the total daily dose is in the range of from 5 mg to 1,400 mg more preferably from 10 mg to 500 mg, and unit dosage forms suitable for oral administration comprise from 2 mg to 1,400 mg of the compound admixed with a solid or liquid pharmaceutical carrier or diluent.
The compounds of formula I, and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, may be used on their own or in the form of appropriate medicinal preparations for enteral or parenteral administration.
According to the invention, there is also provided a pharmaceutical composition comprising preferably less than 80% and more preferably less than 50% by weight of a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvant, diluent or carrier.
Examples of such adjuvants, diluents and carriers are: for tablets and dragees: lactose, starch, talc, stearic acid; for capsules: tartaric acid or lactose; for injectable solutions: water, alcohols, glycerin, vegetable oils; for suppositories: natural or hardened oils or waxes.
Compositions in a form suitable for oral, i.e. oesophageal administration include tablets, capsules and dragees;
Sustained release compositions include those in which the active ingredient is bound to an ion exchange resin which is optionally coated with a diffusion barrier to modify the release properties of the resin.
We prefer the composition to contain up to 50% and more preferably up to 25% by weight of the compound of formula I, or of the pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof.
The compounds of formula I and pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof have the advantage that they are less toxic, more efficacious, are longer acting, have a broader range of activity, are more potent, produce fewer side effects, are more easily absorbed or have other useful pharmacological properties, than compounds of similar structure.

The invention is illustrated, but in no way limited, by the following examples.
