Each of the alkyl and alkenyl residues of formula I, whether cyclic or acyclic, contain a maximum of 6 carbon atoms.
The invention also relates to the methods of preparing these compounds, including intermediates and medicaments containing these benzamides.
Pharmacologically acceptable salts of formula I compounds include the non-toxic acid addition salts formed by reacting the benzamides of the invention with the desired acid. The acid may be an inorganic acid, such as sulfuric, sulfamic, nitric, hydrobromic, hydrochloric, phosphoric and the like, or an organic acid, such as citric, tartaric, lactic, acetic, succinic, fumaric, maleic, benzoic and the like.
Pharmacologically acceptable salts of formula I compounds also include the non-toxic quaternary ammonium salts of the benzamides of the invention produced by reacting the benzamides with an aliphatic or aromatic alkylating agent, such as methyl chloride, methyl bromide, dimethyl sulfate, methyl p-toluene sulfonate and the like. In addition, the novel benzamide compounds include the N-oxides formed by utilizing the conventional agents; see, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,839,330, issued Oct. 1, 1974.
When the presence of an asymmetric carbon atom in the formula makes it possible to have optical isomers these also form part of the invention.
The dextrorotatory and levorotatory isomers of the foregoing compounds of the invention are also included within the scope of this invention. Such optically active compounds are conventionally resolved employing a suitably selected optically active acid, which is added to the racemate. The salts thus obtained are separated, for example, by making use of their differences in solubility in an appropriate solvent or by other conventional techniques. Typically, D- or L-dibenzoyl-tartaric acid is employed to resolve the racemate.
The compounds have therapeutic uses, particularly in activating the central nervous system.

The monohydrochloride prepared for immediate use is approximately 32% soluble in water.
The pharmacological properties of the compounds according to the invention has been investigated and their toxicology, studied. The chemical structure of these compounds suggests that they are similar to various known methoxybenzamide derivatives, which are known to exhibit antidopaminergic properties at different locations (of the CNS), which properties have led to the therapeutic applications such as antiemetic or psychotropic uses.
Biochemical and pharmacological tests of the compounds of this invention have shown that despite their structural similarity to known benzamides, the compounds of the invention:
did not become bound to the dopaminergic receptors during in vitro tests, whatever the type of D.sub.1 or D.sub.2 receptors;
did not cause any increase in prolactin in vivo, a typical biochemical effect of antidopaminergic drugs which work by blocking certain hypophysial dopamine receptors;
did not counteract certain behavioural effects (emesis, climbing, hyperactivity, stereotyped movements etc.) induced in dogs, rats and mice by dopaminergic agonistic drugs, such as apomorphine and amphetamine, which agonists are currently used by pharmacologists to detect and measure the antidopaminergic effects of a drug;
did not produce any central depressive effect, except for certain cases at high doses. This effect may be toxic in origin, rather than neuroleptic;
did not induce catalepsy, as is a side-effect of neuroleptics.
The fact that there is no binding to dopaminergic receptors was demonstrated by the in vitro tests on rat striatum preparations. These tests which consisted of studying the displacement of specific ligands of dopamine receptors by compounds of the invention. The compound in Example I was found, for instance, to have an inhibiting concentration (50), I.C. 50, of over 10.sup.-4 M relative to .sup.3 H-spiperone, the ligand of D.sub.2 receptors and no displacement of .sup.3 H-piflutixol, the ligand of D.sub.1 receptors.
The fact that there is no increase in the prolactin in the blood after administration of the compounds of the invention was demonstrated in the male rat receiving the compound of Example I subcutaneously in a dose of 1 mg/kg. The test was carried out on eight rats and no increase in prolactin content was observed in the serum of these animals. The blood samples had been taken 10 and 30 minutes after administration of the compound, whereas the same dose of a reference antidopaminergic (Sulpiride) studied under the same conditions, multiplies the amount of basic prolactinaemia by a factor of about 10.
The fact that the compounds of the invention do not counteract the behavioral effects of apomorphine was demonstrated in dogs by the vomiting test (the effect was not significant up to 100 mcg/kg, given subcutaneously) and by the stereotypy tests in rats and climbing tests in mice. The compounds were not seen to have any effect in any of these tests, even at very high doses such as 100 mg/kg.
The fact that the compounds have no cataleptigenic effect was seen in rats. After being given a dose, even a large one (100 mg/kg, administered subcutaneously) they were not able to remain in a set position.
Consequently the compounds of the invention cannot be regarded as antidopaminergic drugs acting as neuroleptics.
On the other hand, the inventive benzamides have the unexpected and important property of stimulating motor activity not only in rodents (rats and mice) but also in a primate: the marmoset. This property was demonstrated in rats located in individual cages fitted with photoelectric cells. Motor activity was measured according to how many times a light beam reaching the cells was interrupted. Measurements were taken between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. and the results were expressed as a percentage of the value for the control rats. The animals appearance was also noted.
The graphs of FIGS. 1 to 15 indicate the strength of the activating effect of the compounds in various examples, at the dosage indicated, administered subcutaneously or intra accumbens.
FIGS. 1-10 represent graphically the motor activity in rats as a percentage of the value for control, as a function of a subcutaneously administered dose of the compounds of the varied Examples.
FIGS. 11-14 represent graphically the motor activity in rats as a percentage of the value for control, as a function of an intra-accumbens administered does of the compounds of the various Examples.
FIG. 15 represents graphically the motor activity in the marmoset as a percentage of the value for control, as a function of the subcutaneously administered does of compounds of various Examples.
It has also been demonstrated that the activating effect persists through chronic treatment.
FIG. 16, for example, shows the effect of compound 1: 0.1 mg/kg administered subcutaneously to rats, daily with two injections per day for 48 days. Motor activity was recorded by photoelectric cells as in the single dose tests.
FIG. 16 represents graphically the motor activity in rats as a percentage of the value for control, as a function of the twice daily subcutaneously administered dosage of compound (1) over a 48 day period.
The activating effect of the inventive benzamide compound has equally been demonstrated on the marmoset, placed in an individual two bar cage. The movements of the animal between the floor and the cage, the intermediate bar and the upper bar were recorded by an infra-red ray process.
In view of this activating property of the compounds of the invention, animal models of behavioural depression were used to investigate a possible antidepressive effect. For example, mice pre-treated with reserpine (5 mg/kg) intraperitoneally 18 hours before the test, or rats receiving reserpine in the nucleus accumbens 1 .mu.g/24 h) were tested. The compound in Example 1, given subcutaneously in a dose of 0.1 mg/kg, counteracts motor depression and ptosis, and proves to be as active at that dose as 30 mg/kg of imipramine given intraperitoneally.
In the course of this pharmacological research a toxicological study of the most preferred compound was carried out. The following table shows the acute toxicity of the compound in Example I, giving the lethal dose 50 values for mice treated with different forms of administration.

This pharmacological profile of the compounds of the invention suggests that at least the most active ones might have therapeutic applications in some forms of depression and/or psychomotor inhibition.
