The compounds of formula Ia and their pharmaceutically usable acid addition salts can be manufactured in accordance with the invention by
(a) reacting a compound of the formula ##STR8## wherein R' is as described above,
in the form of the free acid or in the form of a reactive functional derivative thereof with ethylenediamine, or
(b) reacting a compound of the formula ##STR9## wherein R' is as described above, R.sup.22 is hydrogen and R.sup.23 is a leaving group,
with ammonia, or
(c) converting the residue R.sup.24 in a compound of the formula ##STR10## wherein R' is as described above and R.sup.24 is a rcsidue convertible into an amino group,
into the amino group, or
(d) cleaving off the phenylmethyl group in a compound of the formula ##STR11## wherein at least two of the substituents R.sup.2", R.sup.3" and R.sup.4" are hydrogen and the third is hydrogen, halogen, nitro, amino, hydroxy, lower-alkoxy, lower-alkyl or optionally substituted phenyloxy and R.sup.1" is phenylmethyloxy,
and, if desired, converting a compound obtained into a pharmaceutically usable acid addition salt.
As reactive functional derivatives of the acids of formula II there come into consideration, for example, halides, e.g. chlorides, symmetric or mixed anhydrides, esters, e,g. methyl esters, p-nitrophenyl esters or N-hydroxysuccinimide esters, azides and amides, e.g. imidazolides or succinimides.
The reaction of an acid of formula II or a reactive functional derivatives thereof with ethylenediamine according to variant (a) of the above process can be carried out according to conventional methods. Thus e.g. a free acid of formula II can be reacted with ethylenediamine in the presence of a condensation agent in an inert solvent. If a carbodiimide such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide is used as the condensation agent, then the reaction is conveniently carried out in an alkanecarboxylic acid ester such as ethyl acetate, an ether such as tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, a chlorinated hydrocarbon such as methylene chloride or chloroform, an aromatic hydrocarbon such as benzene, toluene or xylene, acetonitrile or dimethylformamide at a temperature between about -20.degree. C. and room temperature, preferably at about 0.degree. C. If phosphorus trichloride is used as the condensation agent, then the reaction is conveniently carried out in a solvent such as pyridine at a temperature between about 0.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture. In another embodiment of variant (a) ethylenediamine is reacted with one of the aforementioned reactive functional derivatives of an acid of formula II. Thus e.g. a halide, e.g. the chloride, of an acid of formula II can be reacted at about 0.degree. C. with ethylenediamine in the presence of a solvent such as diethyl ether.
The compounds of formula III are, for example, N-(2-haloethyl)carboxamides such as N-(2-chloroethyl)carboxamides, N-(2-methylsulfonylethyl)carboxamides or N-(2-p-toluenesulfonylethyl)carboxamides and the like.
In accordance with variant (b) a compound of formula III can be reacted in a manner known per se with ammonia at a temperature between about -40.degree. C. and 50.degree. C., if desired in the presence of a solvent such as dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dimethyl sulfoxide and the like. The reaction is conveniently carried out in the presence of a solvent at about room temperature.
The conversion of the residue R.sup.24 into amino in accordance with variant (c) is also carried out in a manner known per se depending on the nature of the residue R.sup.24. If this is an amide, then the conversion is conveniently carried out by acidic or basic hydrolysis. The acidic hydrolysis is advantageously carried out using a solution of a mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid, aqueous hydrogen bromide, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid and the like in an inert solvent such as an alcohol, e.g. methanol or ethanol, or an ether, e.g. tetrahydrofuran or dioxane. The basic hydrolysis can be carried out using aqueous solutions of alkali metal hydroxides such as potassium hydroxide solution or sodium hydroxide solution. Inert organic solvents such as those mentioned above in connection with the acidic hydrolysis can be added as solubilizers. The acidic and basic hydrolysis can be carried out in a temperature range of about room temperature to the reflux temperature, with the boiling point of the reaction mixture or a temperature slightly thereunder being preferred. If R.sup.24 is phthalimido, then this can be converted into the amino group not only by acidic and basic hydrolysis, but also by aminolysis with an aqueous solution of a lower alkylamine such as methylamine or ethylamine. A lower alkanol such as ethanol can be used as the organic solvent. This reaction is preferably carried out at room temperature. A third method for the conversion of phthalimido into amino comprises reacting comp ounds of formula IV in which R.sup.24 is phthalimido with hydrazine in an inert solvent such as ethanol, a mixture of ethanol and chloroform, tetrahydrofuran or agueous ethanol. The reaction temperature can be varied in a range of about room temperature up to about 100.degree. C., with the boiling point of the chosen solvent being preferred. The resulting product can be extracted with dilute mineral acid and can subsequently be obtained by making the acidic solution basic. The t-butoxycarbonylamino residue is conveniently converted into the amino group using trifluoroacetic acid or formic acid in the presence or absence of an inert solvent at about room temperature, while the conversion of the trichloroethoxycarbonylamino group into the amino group is carried out using zinc or cadmium under acidic conditions. The acidic conditions are conveniently achieved by carrying out the reaction in acetic acid in the presence or absence of an additional inert solvent such as an alcohol, e.g. methanol. The benzyloxycarbonylamino residue can be converted into the amino group in a known manner by acidic hydrolysis as described above or hydrogenolytically. If R.sup.24 is azido, then the azido group can be reduced to the amino group according to known methods, for example with elementary hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst such as palladium/carbon. Raney-nickel platinum oxide and the like. If R.sup.24 is hexamethylenetetraammonium, then the hexamethylenetetraammonium group can be converted into the amino group by acidic hydrolysis according to methods which are likewise known.
The cleavage of the phenylmethyl group in accordance with variant (d) is carried out according to methods known per se, conveniently by hydrogenolysis in the presence of palladium at room temperature or by hydrolysis with trifluoroacetic acid in the presence or absence of an inert solvent at a temperature between about room temperature and 100.degree. C., preferably at about 50.degree. C.
The compounds of formula II and their reactive functional derivatives used as starting materials in variant (a) are known or can be obtained in analogy to the preparation of the known compounds.
The compounds of formula III used as starting materials in variant (b) are also known or are analogues of known compounds and can be prepared in a manner known per se. Thus, for example, a compound of formula II or a reactive functional derivative thereof can be reacted with ethanolamine under the reaction conditions given for variant (a) and the N-(2-hydroxyethyl)carboxamide obtained can be converted into the desired compound of formula III in a manner known per se, e.g. by reaction with a halogenating agent such as phosphorus trichloride, phosphorus tribromide, phosphorus pentachloride, phosphorus oxychloride and the like, an arylsulfonyl halide such as tosyl chloride or an alkylsulfonyl halide such as mesyl chloride.
The compounds of formula IV used as starting materials in variant (c) are also known or are analogues of known compounds and can be prepared in a manner known per se. Thus, for example, a compound of formula II or a reactive functional derivative thereof can be reacted with a compound of the formula
H.sub.2 N--CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --R.sup.24 V
wherein R.sup.24 is as described above,
under the reaction conditions given for variant (a). The compounds of formula V are known or can be obtained in analogy to the preparation of the known compounds.
In accordance with an alternative process the compounds of formula IV in which R.sup.24 is phthalimido, azido or hexamethylenetetraammonium can also be obtained by reacting a compound of formula III with potassium phthalimide, an alkali metal azide or hexamethylenetetraamine. The reaction is carried out in a manner known per se under the reaction conditions given for variant (b).
The compounds of formula Ib used as starting materials in variant (d) fall under formula Ia and can accordingly be obtained according to the methods described for the preparation of these compounds.
As mentioned above, the compounds of formula I and their pharmaceutically usable acid addition salts have monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibiting activity. On the basis of this activity the compounds of formula I and their pharmaceutically usable acid addition salts can be used for the treatment of depressive states and parkinsonism.
The MAO inhibiting activity of the compounds in accordance with the invention can be determined using standard methods. Thus, the substances to be tested were administered p.o. to rats. Two hours thereafter the animals were killed and the MAO inhibiting activity was measured in homogenates of the brain according to the method described in Biochem. Pharmacol. 12 (1963) 1439-1441, but using phenethylamine (2.10.sup.-5 mol.1.sup.-1) in place of tyramine as the substrate. The thus-determined activity of some compounds in accordance with the invention as well as their toxicity are evident from the following ED.sub.50 values (.mu.mol/kg, p.o. in the rat) and LD.sub.50 values (mg/kg, p.o. in the mouse), respectively:

The administration can, however, also be carried out rectally, e.g. in the form of suppositories, or parenterally, e.g. in the form of injection solutions.
For the manufacture of tablets, coated tablets, dragees and hard gelatine capsules the compounds of formula I and their pharmaceutically usable acid addition salts can be processed with pharmaceutically inert, inorganic or organic excipients. As such excipients there can be used e.g. for tablets, dragees and hard gelatine capsules lactose, maize starch or derivatives thereof, talc, stearic acid or its salts etc. For soft gelatine capsules there are suitable as excipients e.g. vegetable oils, waxes, fats, semi-solid and liquid polyols etc.

For injection solutions there are suitable as excipients e.g. water, alcohols, polyols, glycerine, vegetable oils etc.
For suppositories there are suitable as excipients e.g. natural or hardened oils, waxes, fats, semi-liquid or liquid polyols etc.
Moreover, the pharmaceutical preparations can contain preserving agents, solubilizers, stabilizing agents, wetting agents, emulsifying agents, sweetening agents, coloring agents, flavoring agents, salts for varying the osmotic pressure, buffers, coating agents or antioxidants. They can also contain still other therapeutically valuable substances.
In accordance with the invention compounds of the formula I as well as their pharmaceutically usable acid addition salts can be used in the control or prevention of depressive states and parkinsonism. Compounds of formula I are administered to a warm-blooded animal in need of such treatment. The dosage can vary within wide limits and is, of course, fitted to the individual requirements in each particular case. In general, in the case of oral administration a daily dosage of about 10 to 100 mg of a compound of formula I should be appropriate, although the upper limit given above can also be exceeded should this be found to be indicated.

EXAMPLE 21
1.4 g of 5-methylisoxazole-3-carboxylic acid and 1.8 g of 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole were stirred at 70.degree. for 1 hour in 10 ml of tetrahydrofuran. To this solution were then added dropwise 1.8 g of N-(t-butoxycarbonyl)ethylenediamine in 3.5 ml of tetrahydrofuran and the mixture was left to stir at 20.degree. for a further hour.
The reaction mixture was subsequently cooled to room temperature and concentrated to about 1/4 of the volume on a rotary evaporator under reduced pressure, taken up in water and extracted three times with chloroform. The chloroform extracts, dried over magnesium sulfate, were evaporated completely and the residue was crystallized from chloroform/n-hexane, whereby t-butyl [2-(5-methylisoxazole-3-carboxamido)ethyl]carbamate was obtained.
A solution of 2.6 g of t-butyl [2-(5-methylisoxazole--3-carboxamido)ethyl]carbamate in 14 ml of trifluoroacetic acid was stirred at 20.degree. for 1/2 hour. The mixture was thereafter evaporated to dryness on a rotary evaporator, the residue was taken up in methanol and the solution was treated with hydrogen chloride in methanol (6N). After recrystallization from methanol/diethyl ether there was obtained N-(2-aminoethyl)-5-methylisoxazole-3-carboxamide hydrochloride, m.p. 208.degree..
EXAMPLE 22
10.0% of pyridine-2-carboxylic acid were suspended in 150 ml of toluene and the suspension was heated to reflux for 2 hours with 17.7 ml of thionyl chloride and 3 drops of dimethylformamide. Thereafter, the mixture was evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure, the residue was treated with toluene and again evaporated to dryness. There was obtained picolinic acid chloride as dark green crystals which were used directly in the next step.
15.4 ml of ethanolamine were placed under argon with 30 ml of dimethylformamide and cooled to 0.degree.-5.degree.. A solution of 11.3 g of picolinic acid chloride in 100 ml of dimethylformamide was added dropwise thereto at 0.degree.-10.degree. and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The dimethylformamide was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in methylene chloride and separated from the insoluble constituents, and thereafter chromatographed on silica gel; elution agent: methylene chloride, thereafter methylene chloride/methanol (9:1). N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)pyridine-2-carboxamide was obtained as a yellow oil.
3.0 g of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyridine-2-carboxamide were placed in a round flask with 20 ml of methylene chloride and 2.5 ml of triethylamine and the mixture was cooled to 0.degree.-5.degree.. A solution of 1.4 ml of methanesulfochloride in 30 ml of methylene chloride was added dropwise thereto while cooling well at 0.degree.-5.degree.. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0.degree.-5.degree. for a further 2 hours and thereafter added dropwise at 0.degree.-5.degree. to 30 ml of concentrated (25%) ammonia. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight and thereafter concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in methylene chloride, extracted with 2N hydrochloric acid and washed with water. The aqueous extracts were combined, made basic with concentrated (28%) sodium hydroxide solution and extracted 3 times with methylene chloride. The organic extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated. There was obtained a yellow oil which was chromatographed on silica gel for further purification. As the elution agent there was used firstly ethyl acetate, thereafter an ethyl acetate/alcohol mixture and finally alcohol. There was obtained N-(2-aminoethyl)pyridine-2-carboxamide which, in accordance with thin-layer chromatography, was identical with the compound described in Example 1.
