Substituted anilide compounds which are useful in the treatment of arrhythmia

This invention relates to novel substituted anilide derivatives which have useful pharmacological activity as drugs for treating diseases of the circulatory system, particularly arrhythmia; a process for production thereof; and use thereof for treating said diseases.
Compounds having antiarrhythmic activity have previously been known. For example, West German Patent No. 2,235,745 discloses "Tocainide" represented by the following formula. ##STR2## U.S. Pat. No. 2,441,498 discloses "Lidocaine" represented by the following formula. ##STR3## U.S. Pat. No. 3,659,019 discloses "Mexiletine" of the following formula. ##STR4## U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,900,481 and 4,005,209 disclose "Flecanide" represented by the following formula. ##STR5##
Disopyramide and procainamide are also known as anti-arrhythmic agents.
These known compounds having anti-arrhythmic activity generally tend to show undesirable actions including side effects on the central nervous system. For example, disopyramide has side effects considered to be due to its anticholinergic activity, such as thirst, ischurin, constipation, dizziness and vomiting. Since it also has an inhibiting action on the myocardium, care must be taken in its administration. Procainamide is known to induce side effects such as anticholinergic activity, cardiodepressive action, and hypotension. It has been reported that mexiletine cause side effects on the digestive system and the meuropsychotic system with a high frequency, and has activity on the central nervous system.
The present inventors have made extensive investigations for anti-arrhythmic activity free from these undesirable actions, and have finally discovered a certain type of novel substituted anilide derivatives.
According to this invention, there is provided a substituted anilide derivative of the formula ##STR6## wherein
R.sub.1 represents a mononuclear or binuclear heterocyclic group which contains 1 to 3 nitrogen atoms as ring members and may have a substituent,
A represents a single bond, a carbonyl group, a sulfur atom, or a lower alkylene group which may be substituted by a hydroxyl group,
R.sub.2 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a lower alkyl group, a trifluoromethyl group, a lower alkenyloxy group, or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.14 alkoxy group which may have a substituent,
R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are identical or different, and each represents a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, a phenyl group, or a phenyl(lower alkyl) group which may have a substituent, or taken together, may form a saturated nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group together with the nitrogen atom to which they are bonded, and
B represents a single bond or a lower alkylene group which may have a substituent,
or an acid addition salt thereof.
It is found that the novel compounds of formula (I) exhibit an excellent pharmacological efficacy for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, particularly arrhythmia, with markedly reduced side effects on the central nervous system. It has also been found that the novel compounds of this invention show different pharmacological actions from conventional analogous compounds, particularly vasoactive pharmacological activity, are useful for the treatment of arrhythmia, have low toxicity, and can be used over an extended period of time.
In the present specification and the appended claims, the term "lower" used to qualify a group or a compound means that the group or compound so qualified has not more than 6, preferably not more than 4, carbon atoms.
The "mononuclear or binuclear heterocyclic group which contains 1 to 3 nitrogen atoms as ring members and may have a substituent" in formula (I) given above includes mononuclear or binuclear heterocyclic groups which contains 1 to 3 nitrogen atoms as ring members and are 3- to 10-membered, preferably 5- to 9-membered. Preferably the heterocyclic groups are aromatic, and include, for example, pyridyl, imidazolyl, imidazopyridyl and indolyl groups, especially preferred being 2-, 3- or 4-pyridyl group, above all the 2- or 3-pyridyl group. These nitrogen-containing heterocyclic groups may be in an oxidized state, namely an N-oxide. Examples of the substituent which may exist on the heterocyclic group include lower alkoxycarbonyl groups such as methoxycarbonyl and ethoxycarbonyl; nitroxy-lower alkyl-aminocarbonyl groups such as nitroxyethylaminocarbonyl; lower alkylaminocarbonyl groups such as methylaminocarbonyl, ethylaminocarbonyl, propylaminocarbonyl, isopropylaminocarbonyl and hexylaminocarbonyl groups, lower alkylthio groups such as methylthio and ethylthio; and lower alkylsulfinyl groups such as methylsulfinyl and ethylsulfinyl. Desirably, only one such substituent exists on the heterocycle. Generally, the heterocyclic group is preferably unsubstituted, and therefore, R.sub.1 is especially preferably a pyridyl group.
The bridging member A represents a single bond, a lower alkylene group which may be substituted by hydroxyl such as ##STR7## a carbonyl group or a sulfur group. The signal bond is preferred.
The "halogen atom" in the definition of the group R.sub.2 includes fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine atoms. The "lower alkenyloxy group" is preferably an allyloxy group. The alkoxy group in the "C.sub.1 -C.sub.14 alkoxy group which may have a substituent" may be linear or branched, and is preferably a lower alkoxy group. Examples of the substituent are halogen atoms such as fluorine, an amino group, and lower alkoxycarbonyl groups such as methoxycarbonyl and ethoxycarbonyl. Specific examples of the C.sub.1 -C.sub.14 alkoxy group having such a substituent include methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, isopropoxy, butoxy, 4-methyl-1-pentyloxy, octyloxy, tetradecyloxy, 2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy and ethoxycarbonylmethoxy. Generally, the group R.sub.2 is preferably a lower alkyl group, an allyloxy group, a lower alkoxy group or a 2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy group, the lower alkoxy groups being especially preferred. Examples of the substituent on the phenyl group in the "phenyl(lower alkyl) group which may have a substituent" include lower alkoxy groups, a nitro group, halogen atoms and a trifluoromethyl group. Examples of the phenyl(lower alkyl) group which may have a substituent are benzyl, phenethyl, and 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenylethyl. The saturated nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group which may be formed of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are bonded is generally 4- to 7-membered, especially 5- or 6-membered, and may be, for example, pyrrolidino and piperidino. Thus, the moiety ##STR8## preferably represents an amino group, a di(lower alkyl)amino group, a phenylamino group or a (lower alkoxy-substituted phenyl)lower alkyl group, or a saturated nitrogen-containing 4- to 7-membered, especially 5- or 6-membered, heterocyclic group, especially a piperidino group. The amino group is especially preferred.
The bridging member B represents a single bond or a linear or branched lower alkylene group which may have a substituent, for example a phenyl group that may be substituted by 1 to 3 lower alkoxy groups. Linear or branched lower alkylene groups, such as --CH.sub.2 --, --CH.sub.2 --, ##STR9## and --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --. The group ##STR10## is especially preferred.
Generally, the group R.sub.1 --A-- and R.sub.2 -- exist at the ortho- or meta-position to the group ##STR11## and the group R.sub.1 --A-- exists at the para-position to the group R.sub.2 --.
The compounds of formula (I) may be in the form of acid addition salts. Examples of the salts includes salts of inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid and salts of organic acids such as oxalic acid, tartaric acid, maleic acid, citric acid, fumaric acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, methanesulfonic acid and toluenesulfonic acid.
The compound of formula (I) provided by this invention can be produced, for example, by reacting an aniline derivative of the formula ##STR12## wherein R.sub.1, A and R.sub.2 are as defined above, with an aminoalkylcarboxylic acid of the formula ##STR13## wherein R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and B are as defined above, or its reactive derivative.
The reaction can carried out in a conventional manner by contacting the compound of formula (II) with the compound of formula (III) in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride or tetrahydrofuran. The reaction temperature and time can be properly chosen. The amounts of the compound of formula (II) and the compound of formula (III) can be properly selected, and, for example, the compound of formula (III) may be used in an amount of about 1 to about 3 moles per mole of the compound of formula (II).
The compound of formula (II) used as a starting material is a known compound, or can be prepared by a known method. For example, a compound of formula (II) in which A is a single bond and R.sub.1 is a pyridyl group can be obtained by reducing a nitrophenylpyridine (see J. Chem. Soc. 1943, 406-413). A compound of formula (II) in which R.sub.1 is an imidazolyl or imidazopyridyl group can be obtained, for example, by reacting nitrobenzaldehyde with glyoxal and ammonia or ammonium carbonate, or by first reacting it with diaminopyridine and reducing the nitro group of the product.
A compound of formula (II) in which A is a carbonyl group can be produced, for example, by reacting a nicotinic halide or 2,3-pyridinedicarboxylic acid with a substituted benzene and subjecting the resulting nicotinoylbenzene derivative to nitration and reduction in a customary manner.
A compound of formula (II) in which A is a lower alkyl group that may have a hydroxyl group can be produced by nitrating a compound produced in accordance with the method described in Tetrahedron Letters, Vol. 22, No. 41, pages 4093-4096, such as bromobenzyl pyridine, and reducing the resulting product.
A compound of formula (II) in which A is a sulfur atom can be produced by nitrating phenylthiopyridine obtained, for example, by reacting mercaptopyridine with a halogenobenzene, and reducing the resulting product.
On the other hand, the compound of formula (III) is either a known compound, or may be easily produced by a known method. The reactive derivative of the compound of formula (III) may be a reactive derivative of a carboxylic acid known in the field of peptide chemistry, for example, halides (e.g., chlorides) and active esters of carboxylic acids.
When in the compound of formula (III), R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are both hydrogen atoms, it is preferably protected with a suitable protective group (e.g., a butoxycarbonyl or trifluoroacetyl) for the amino group prior to reaction with the compound of formula (II).
A compound of formula (I) in which A is a lower alkyl group which may have a hydroxyl group can also be produced by reducing a compound of formula (I) in which A is a carbonyl group.
The compound of formula (I) so produced can be converted to its acid addition salt by contacting it with an inorganic or organic acid. The reaction may be carried out by contacting the compound of formula (I) with an inorganic or organic acid in the presence or absence of a solvent. The reaction temperature and time can be properly selected. For example, temperatures from room temperature to about 50.degree. C. and periods of 1 to 24 hours may be employed. Examples of the inorganic or organic acids may be those already exemplified hereinabove with regard to the acid addition salts.
The compounds of formula (I) and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof have reduced side effects on the central nervous system as compared with conventional analogous compounds and exhibit vasoactive pharmacological activity which the conventional compounds do not. For this reason, they are useful for treating arrhythmic and can be used for an extended period of time. Furthermore, they have low toxicity.
Animal tests shown below demonstrate the excellent anti-arrhythmic activity of the compounds of formula (I) provided by this invention.
Test Example 1
Activity on Chloroform-Induced Arrhythmia:
ICR-strain mice having a body weight of 20 to 35 g (10 per group) were used, and the test compound was administered orally in a dose of 30 mg/kg. The mice were put in a 1-liter beaker, and observed for 20 minutes for their symptoms or conditions. Then, they were placed in a vessel saturated with a vapor of chloroform, and the time which elapsed until the animals ceased to breathe was measured. After the stopping of the breathing, the mice were taken out from the vessel and their cardiograms (second induction) were recorded by a memory oscilloscope (VC-10, made by Nippon Kodensha) and a linear corder (WTR.sub.331 made by Watanabe Measuring Instrument Co., Ltd.). The occurrence of ventricular fibrillation (VF) was evaluated by the cardiograms. The results are shown in Table 1 by percent VF inhibition.

Test Example 2
Activity on Ouabain-Induced Arrhythmia:
Male hybrid adult dogs weighing 9 to 17 kg were anaesthetized, and fixed in the supine position under artificial respiration. The blood pressures, heart rates and second induced cardiograms (using RA-101 made by San-ei Measuring Instrument Co., Ltd.) of the animals were measured. Ouabain was first intravenously administered in a dose of 40 .mu.g/kg, and 30 minutes later in a dose of 20 .mu.g/kg. Furthermore, until continuous ventricular arrhythmia was obtained, 10 .mu.g/kg of ouabain was cumulatively administered at intervals of 15 minutes. The ventricular automaticity was examined substantially in accordance with the method of Roberts et al. (J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 117, 374-384, 1956). The peripheral end of the right cervical vagus nerve was stimulated with short waves (0.4-1.9 V, 1 millisecond, 20 Hz) using an electrical stimulating device (MSE-3R made by Nippon Kodensha) for 10 seconds. The stimulating voltage was prescribed such that sinus bradycardia became maximum within the range in which the sinus rhythm did not disappear.
Ten minutes after the occurrence of continuous arrhythmia, the vagus nerve was stimulated, and after it was confirmed that bradycardia did not occur, the test compound was continuously injected into the femoral vein at a rate of 0.5 mg/kg/min. After the administration, the vagus nerve was stimulated every minute, and the inhibition of extrasystole was observed. At the same time, the presence or absence of restoration of the cardiogram to a normal rhythm was observed using the inversion of R waves as an index in ventricular arrhythmia. The anti-arrhythmic action was evaluated such that when the normal sinus rhythm was restored and extrasystole was not induced by stimulation of the vagus nerve, the result was rated as complete inhibition. The dose required for complete inhibition was shown in Table 2.

The results of the above Test Examples show that the compounds of formula (I) provided by this invention have very strong inhibiting activity on chloroform-induced arrhythmia in mice and ouabain-induced arrhythmia in dogs, and are useful as anti-arrhythmic agents.
Thus, according to this invention, there can be provided a pharmaceutical composition comprising an antiarrhythmically effective amount of the substituted anilide derivative of formula (I) or its pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt and a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or carrier.
The compounds of formula (I) in accordance with this invention can be administered orally or parenterally as anti-arrhythmically active medicaments. Their activity is long-lasting and useful for the treatment and prevention of arrhythmia.
Preferably, the compound of formula (I) or its acid addition salt is used as an antiarrhythmically active medicament in the form of tablets, sublingual tablets, capsules, powders, granules, suppositories, liquids, injecting preparations, suspensions, etc. prepared by using pharmaceutically acceptable diluents or carriers such as vehicles, binders, solvents and emulsifiers.
Examples of the vehicles are starches such as potato starch, wheat starch and corn starch, sugars such as lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol and sorbitol, celluloses such as crystalline cellulose, carboxy methyl cellulose calcium and hydroxypropyl cellulose, and inorganic substances such as calcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, calcium carbonate and talc.

Examples of the emulsifiers are polyhydric alcohol ester-type nonionic surface-active agents and polyoxyethylene-type nonionic surface-active agents, such as fatty acid monoglycerides, sorbitan fatty acid esters, sucrose and polyglycerol fatty acid esters.
The dosage of the pharmaceutical composition of this invention varies depending upon the condition of a patient. Usually, it is 10 to 1,000 mg, preferably 150 to 600 mg, per day as the compound of formula (I) or its pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt in the case of oral or intravenous administration.
The acute toxicity of the compounds of formula (I) or the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof in accordance with this invention corresponds to an LD.sub.50 value of 200 to 400 mg/kg in oral administration to mice, and therefore, they have very low toxicity.
The following examples will illustrate the present invention more specifically.

EXAMPLE 1
3-Amino-5'-methoxy-2'-(2-pyridyl)butynanilide: ##STR14##
(1) 1.63 g of 2-(4-methoxy-2-nitrophenyl)pyridine was dissolved in 14 ml of ethanol, and 8 g of stannous chloride dihydrate and 5.7 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid were added. The mixture was stirred at a bath temperature of 100.degree. C. for 3 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was made alkaline with a 50% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide and extracted with benzene. The solvent was evaporated. The resulting dark brown oil was subjected to silica gel column chromatography and the column was eluted with chloroform. As a yellow oil, 967 mg (yield 68.2%) of 2-(2-amino-4-methoxyphenyl)pyridine was obtained.
(2) The resulting compound and a solution of 1.280 g of 3-t-butoxycarbonylaminobutyric acid and 1.21 g of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide monohydrochloride in 15 ml of methylene chloride were stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was washed with water, and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, and the column was eluted with chloroform. The eluate was recrystallized from ethyl acetate/hexane to give 1.574 g (yield 84.5%) of 3-t-butoxycarbonylamino-5'-methoxy-2'-(2-pyridyl)butyranilide as pale yellow prisms having a melting point of 143.degree. to 145.degree. C.
(3) The resulting t-butoxycarbonyl compound (1.50 g) was dissolved in 39 ml of methanol, and 6.5 ml of 6N-hydrochloric acid was added. The solution was stirred at a bath temperature of 80.degree. C. for 1 hour. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue was made alkaline with a dilute aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide and extracted with ethyl acetate. The solvent was evaporated. The resulting reddish brown oil was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, and the column was eluted with a 30:1 mixture of chloroform/methanol (containing ammonia). The solvents were evaporated from the eluate to give 994 mg (yield 89.5%) of 3-amino-5'-methoxy-2'-(2-pyridyl)butyranilide.

2-Amino-2'-(5-pyridyl)-5'-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-propionanilide ##STR19##
(1) 1.235 g of 3-(4-methoxy-2-nitrophenyl)pyridine was dissolved in 100 ml of a 47% aqueous solution of hydrogen bromide, and the solution was stirred at a bath temperature of 120.degree. C. for 8 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was adjusted to pH 3-4 with a 50% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, neutralized with sodium hydrogen carbonate, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The solvent was evaporated, and the crude crystals were recrystallized from ethyl acetate to give 477 mg of 3-(4-hydroxy-2-nitrophenyl)pyridine. The recrystallization mother liquor was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, and the column was eluted with a 50:1 mixture of chloroform and ethanol. The solvent was evaporated to give 331 mg of the above compound. The total amount of the above compound was 808 mg (yield 69.7%).
(2) 649 mg of the resulting compound was dissolved in 6 ml of N,N'-dimethylformamide, and 622 mg of potassium carbonate and 1.68 g of 1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethanol) trifluoromethanesulfonate were added and the mixture was stirred at a bath temperature of 50.degree. C. for 1 hour. After cooling, 60 ml of ethyl acetate was added, and the mixture washed with water. Evaporation of the solvent gave a dark brown oil. The oil was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, and the column was eluted with chloroform. The solvent was evaporated from the eluate to give 765 mg (yield 85.5%) of 3-2-nitro-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenyl]pyridine as a brown oil.
(3) The product was then worked up as in Example 1, (1) to give 680 mg (yield 98.8%) of 3-2-amino-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenyl)pyridine as reddish brown
(4) 330 mg of the resulting compound, 303 mg of N-t-butoxycarbonylalanine, and 307 mg of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride were dissolved in 5 ml of methylene chloride, and the solution was stirred overnight at room temperature. The solvent was evaporated, and the resulting oil was subjected to silica gel column chromatography. The column was eluted with chloroform, and the resulting crude crystals were recrystallized from a mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane to give 414 mg (yield 76.2%) of 2-(t-butoxycarbonylamino)-2'-(3-pyridyl)-5'-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)propionanilide as a colorless crystalline powder having a melting point of 149.degree. to 152.degree. C.
(5) 383 mg of the resulting t-butoxycarbonyl compound was dissolved in 4.5 ml of methanol, and 0.75 ml of 6N-hydrochloric acid was added. The solution was stirred at a bath temperature of 70.degree. C., and then worked up in the same way as in Example 1, (3) to give 271 mg (yield 91.6%) of 2-amino-2'-(3-pyridyl)-5'-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)propionanilide as a pale yellow oil.

3-Amino-5'-(4-pyridylmethyl)-2'-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)butyranilide hydrochloride ##STR40##
(1) 3.0 g of diisopropyl-1-ethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-4-phosphonate was dissolved in 50 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The solution was cooled to -78.degree. C. with a dry ice-acetone freezing mixture. In a stream of nitrogen, 6.8 ml of a hexane solution of n-butyllithium was slowly added dropwise. A solution of 2.50 g of p-bromobenzyl bromide in 10 ml of tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise. The temperature of the solution was returned to room temperature, and the solution was stirred for 20 hours. The excess of n-butyllithium was decomposed with ammonium chloride, and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate, a saturated aqueous solution of sodium thiosulfate and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride in this order, and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography. The column was eluted with a 1:9 mixture of acetone and benzene to give 2.76 g (yield 56.6%) of diisopropyl-4-(4-bromobenzyl)-1-ethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-4-phosphonate as a brown oil.
(2) 2 ml of chlorotrimethylsilane was added to 2.76 g of the resulting compound and a solution of 4.2 g of sodium iodide in 50 ml of acetonitrile. In a stream of nitrogen, the mixture was stirred at a bath temperature of 80.degree. to 90.degree. C. After the reaction, the reaction mixture was filtered. The solvent was evaporated from the filtrate, and the residue was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with a 1N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride in this order. The solvent was evaporated to give 922 mg (yield 65.6%) of 4-(4-bromobenzyl)pyridine.
(3) In a stream of nitrogen, 2.0 ml of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol was added to 52.8 mg of sodium hydride, and then a solution of 140 mg of copper iodide and 922 mg of 4-(4-bromobenzyl)pyridine in 4 ml of N,N'-dimethylformamide was added. The mixture was stirred at a bath temperature of 120.degree. C. for 3 hours. After the reaction, water was added to the reaction mixture, and it was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water, and the solvent was evaporated. 0.78 g of the residue was distilled under reduced pressure by using a Kugel-Rohr. When 574 mg (yield 57%) of a fraction having a boiling point of 150.degree. C. (0.2 mmHg) was separated, 4-[4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)benzyl]pyridine was obtained as colorless crystals having a melting point of 51.degree. to 53.degree. C.
(4) The resulting compound was nitrated by the same procedure as in Example 47, (3) and reduced and amidated by the same procedure as in Example 1 to give 3-amino-5'-(4-pyridylmethyl)-2'-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)butyranilide hydrochloride as colorless crystals having a melting point of 231.degree. to 234.degree.

3-Amino-5'-methoxy-2'-(4-pyridylthio)butyranilide ##STR42##
(1) 1.11 g of 4-mercaptopyridine was dissolved in 5 ml of ethanol, and 52.8 mg of sodium hydride was added little by little. The mixture was stirred for 5 minutes, and then a solution of 1.87 g of 4-chloro-3-nitroanisole in 5 ml of dioxane was added. The mixture was heated under reflux at 100.degree. C. for 15 hours. The solvent was evaporated, and 2N hydrochloric acid was added to the residue. The residue was washed with ether, made alkaline by adding an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, and extracted with methylene chloride. The extract was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride. The solvent was evaporated. The resulting residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography. The column was eluted with a 5:3 mixture of hexane and acetone, and the eluate was recrystallized from acetone-hexane to give 562 mg (yield 21.4%) of 4-(4-methoxy-2-nitrophenyl)thiopyridine as orange needles having a melting point of 57.degree. to 59.degree. C.
(2) 536 mg of the resulting compound was dissolved in a mixture of 7 ml of toluene and 7 ml of methanol, and while the solution was heated under reflux, 336 mg of sodium hydrosulfide was added dropwise over 10 minutes. The mixture was heated under reflux for 4 hours. The precipitate was removed by filtration, and the solvent was evaporated from the filtrate. The residue was dissolved in 6N hydrochloric acid and washed with methylene chloride. The aqueous layer was made alkaline with concentrated aqueous ammonia and extracted with methylene chloride. The extract was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride. The solvent was then evaporated. The solvent was evaporated, and purified by preparative silica gel thin-layer chromatography (developing solvent: hexane/acetone=5/3). The purified product was recrystallized from methylene chloride-hexane to give mg (yield 60.5%) of 4-(2-amino-4-methoxyphenyl)thiopyridine as pale yellow needles having a melting point of 93.degree. to 94.degree. C.
