This invention is concerned with compounds of the formula: ##SPC1##
Wherein Z is CH or N; R.sub.1 and R.sub. 2 are the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, halogen, nitro, trifluoromethyl, methylthio, methylsulfonyl and hydroxy; R.sub.3 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or phenyl lower alkyl; R is hydrogen, diloweralkylaminoloweralkyl, piperidylloweralkyl, morpholinoloweralkyl, pyrrolidinoloweralkyl, or piperazinylloweralkyl and acid addition salts thereof, with the proviso that when Z is N, then R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen. The term lower in compounds containing lower alkyl or lower alkoxy substituents is intended to include those having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The term halogen includes chlorine, bromine, fluorine and iodine.
This invention also relates to compounds of the above formula wherein R.sub.3 is hydrogen or lower alkyl, R is hydrogen and R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and Z are as described above, which compounds are useful as intermediates for the preparation of the compounds of my application Serial No. 552,022, filed Feb. 24, 1975.
The compounds of the present invention may be prepared according to the following reaction sequence: ##SPC2##
Wherein R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and Z are as defined hereinabove.
An appropriately substituted 1,3,4,9-tetrahydro-10H-thieno[3,4-b][1,5]benzodiazepin-10-one (I) wherein Z is CH, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen and R.sub.3 is methyl is prepared by the reaction of N-methyl-o-phenylenediamine and methyl tetrahydro-4-oxo-3-thiophenecarboxylate at reflux temperature. The compound (I) is then fused with sulfur to produce the comparably substituted 4,9-dihydro-10H-thieno[3,4-b][1,5]benzodiazepin-10-one (II). The compound (II) is then reacted with an appropriately substituted diloweralkylaminoloweralkyl, piperazinylloweralkyl, phenylloweralkyl, pyrrolidinoloweralkyl, piperidylloweralkyl or morpholinoloweralkyl halide in a sodium hydride-mineral oil dispersion and an appropriate solvent such as dry dimethylformamide to produce the compounds (III) exemplified by Examples 4-13.
The compounds of Examples 14-17 may be prepared by the above procedure where (I) has the R.sub.3 substituent altered to ethyl by employing N-ethyl-o-phenylenediamine. The compound (I) is then reacted with N-chlorosuccinimide in a suitable solvent to produce compound (II) where R.sub.3 is ethyl. The compound (II) is then reacted as described above to produce the compounds exemplified by Examples 16 and 17.
To produce the compound of Example 20 an appropriately substituted 1,3,4,9-tetrahydro-10H-thieno[3,4-b][1,5]benzodiazepin-10-one (I) wherein Z is CH, and R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are each methyl is prepared by the reaction of N-methyl-4,5-dimethyl-o-phenylenediamine and methyl tetrahydro-4-oxo-3-thiophenecarboxylate at reflux temperature. The compound (I) is then treated with N-chlorosuccinimide in a solvent such as dry pyridine to produce the comparably substituted compound (II). The compound (II) is then reacted as described above to produce the compound of Example 20.
The compound (I) where R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are chloro, Z is CH and R.sub.3 is methyl is prepared by the reaction of N-methyl-4,5-dichloro-o-phenylenediamine and methyl tetrahydro-4-oxo-3-thiophenecarboxylate at reflux temperature. This compound (I) is converted to the comparably substituted compound (II) by reaction with N-chlorosuccinimide. This compound (II) is then converted to the compound (III) exemplified by Example 23, by the procedure described above.
The appropriately substituted compound (I) where Z is CH, R, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen is prepared by the reaction of methyl tetrahydro-4-oxo-3-thiophenecarboxylate and o-phenylenediamine in a solvent such as for example, toluene at reflux temperature. Compound (I) is converted to the comparably substituted compound (II) by treatment with N-bromosuccinimide in dimethylformamide at ambient temperature. Compound (II) is then converted to the comparably substituted compounds (III) of Examples 26, 27 and 28, by the above described procedure.
The compound (I) where Z is nitrogen, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen and R.sub.3 is methyl is prepared by the reaction of 2-methylamino-3-aminopyridine and methyl tetrahydro-4-oxo-3-thiophenecarboxylate in toluene at reflux temperature.

The compounds of this invention show anti-anxiety activity by their ability to protect warm-blooded animals from convulsions resulting from the administration of pentylenetetrazol. Graded dose levels of the test compounds are administered orally in a 2% starch vehicle, to groups of at least 5 rats. At the estimated time of peak effect, the rats are treated intravenously with pentylenetetrazol at a dose of 21 to 23 mg./kg. of body weight. This dose is estimated to cause clonic seizures in 99% of unprotected rats. The effective dose of the test compounds for protection of 50% of the animals (MDD.sub.50) is calculated by the method of D. H. Finney in Statistical Methods in Biological Assay, Second Edition, Hofner Publishing Co., New York 456-457 (1964) or by the method of Litchfield, J. T. and Wilcoxon, F., J. Pharmacol. and Exp. Ther., 96, 99 (1949). It has been reported [R. T. Hill and D. M. Tedeschi, "Animal Testing and Screening Procedures in Evaluating Psychotropic Drugs", in An Introduction to Psychopharmacology, Eds. R. R. Rech and K. E. Moore, Raven Press, New York, pp. 237-288 (1971)] that there is a high degree of correlation between anticonvulsant effects in rodents and anti-anxiety effects in higher warm-blooded animals. The results of this test on representative compounds of the present invention are summarized in Table I.

The compounds of the present invention are active analgesics when measures by the "writhing syndrome" test for analgesic activity as described by Siegmund, et al., Proc. Soc. Exp. Bio. and Med., 95, 729 ( 1957), with modifications. This method is based upon the reduction of the number of writhes following the intraperitoneal injection of 1 mg./kg. of body weight of phenyl p-quinone in male Swiss albino mice weighing 18-25 gm. The syndrome is characterized by intermittent contractions of the abdomen, twisting and turning of the trunk, and extension of the hind legs beginning 3 to 5 minutes after injection of the phenyl p-quinone. The test compounds are administered orally at the indicated dose to groups of 2 mice each, 30 minutes before injection of the phenyl p-quinone. The total number of writhes exhibited by each group of mice is recorded for a 3 minute period commencing 15 minutes after injection of the phenyl p-quinone. A compound is considered active if it reduces the total number of writhes in 2 test mice from a control value of approximately 30 per pair to a value of 18 or less. Table II summarizes the results of this test on representative compounds of this invention.

The compounds of the present invention exhibit anti-depressant activity when tested for inhibition of tetrabenazine depression in warm-blooded animals. Doses of 25 mg./kg. of body weight of the test compounds are administered intraperitoneally to 5 mice 1 hour before the administration of tetrabenazine hexamate at an intraperitoneal dose of 30 mg./kg. which is known to depress markedly the exploratory behavior of normal mice. Thirty minutes later the mice are tested for their exploratory behavior. Individual mice are placed in the center of a horizontal disc. Inhibition of the depression induced by tetrabenazine is considered present if the mice perform 1 or more of the following actions within 10 seconds after being placed on the disc:
1. Animals move to the edge of the disc and peer over the side.
2. Animals move 180.degree. in place.
3. Animals display a head movement of 90.degree. immediately followed by a head movement in the opposite direction of at least 45.degree..
Administration of the test compounds to additional groups of 5 mice is repeated, the numbers of individual animals showing an anti-depressant response (normal exploratory behavior) is recorded and the results are analyzed by the following scheme (statistically standardized; significant P = less than 0.05).

When a given test compound is accepted by this procedure at the designated dose level, the sequential procedure is then repeated at the same dose level to provide unequivocal confirmation of its acceptance as an active anti-depressant. The results from several dose levels (acceptance in at least two sequential test procedures) are then used to establish the Range of Active Doses. This method has been described in Greenblatt, E. N. and Osterberg, A. C. in Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology 7, 566-578 (1965). The results of these tests with representative compounds of this invention are summarized in Table III.

The active components of this invention can be used in compositions such as tablets; the principal active ingredient is mixed with conventional tableting ingredients such as corn atarch, lactose, sucrose, sorbitol, talc, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, dicalcium phosphate, gums, or similar materials as non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable diluents or carriers. The tablets or pills of the novel compositions can be laminated or otherwise compounded to provide a dosage form affording the advantage of prolonged or delayed action or predetermined successive action of the enclosed medication. For example, the tablet or pill can comprise an inner dosage and an outer dosage component, the latter being in the form of an envelope over the former. The two components can be separated by an enteric layer which serves to resist disintegration in the stomach and permits the inner component to pass intact into the duodenum or to be delayed in release. A variety of materials can be used for such enteric layers or coatings, such materials including a number of polymeric acids or mixtures of polymeric acids with such materials as shellac, shellac and cetyl alcohol, cellulose acetate and the like. A particularly advantageous enteric coating comprises a styrene maleic acid copolymer together with known materials contributing to the enteric properties of the coating.
The liquid forms in which the novel compositions of the present invention may be incorporated for administration include suitably flavored emulsions with edible oils, such as, cottonseed oil, sesame oil, coconut oil, peanut oil, and the like, as well as elixirs and similar pharmaceutical vehicles. Sterile suspensions or solutions can be prepared for parenteral use. Isotonic preparations containing suitable preservatives are also desirable for injection use.
The term dosage form as described herein refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosage for warm-blooded animal subjects, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active component calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical diluent, carrier or vehicle. The dosage may vary from 1 mg. to 70 mg. per kg. of warm-blooded animal per day preferably in multiple doses. The daily dosage requirement may be from 50 mg. to 2000 mg. The specification for the novel dosage forms of this invention are indicated by characteristics of the active component and the particular therapeutic effect to be achieved or the limitations inherent in the art of compounding such an active component for therapeutic use in warm-blooded animals as disclosed in this specification. Examples of suitable oral dosage forms in accord with this invention are tablets, capsules, pills, powder packets, granules, wafers, cachets, teaspoonfuls, dropperfuls, ampules, vials, segregated multiples of any of the foregoing and other forms as herein described.
