or an aminoalkyl group of the formula VIII ##STR8## wherein R.sup.12 represents a straight-chained or branched alkyl group having up to six carbon atoms,
and R.sup.13 and R.sup.14 may be the same or different and represent hydrogen, a straight-chained or branched alkyl group having up to six carbon atoms or a benzyl group, or together form an alkylene group having four to six carbon atoms, and n equals two or three.

Still also preferred are the compounds of Formula IA, in which R.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group containing up to four carbon atoms.
The compounds of formula I show valuable pharmacological properties with favorable general tolerance.
Due to their vasospasmolytic and thrombocyte aggregation-inhibiting effects they are especially indicated for cerebral, cardiac, and peripheral vascular diseases, such as myocardial ischemia, for cerebral infarction, pulmonary thrombosis and for atherosclerosis and other symptoms of a stenosis, in particular since there are almost no negatively inotropic side effects compared with other known preparations of similar mode of action. The 1,6-naphthyridinone derivatives of the present invention are therefore valuable agents for controlling the cardiovascular mortality which amounts at present to more than 50% of all deaths in Germany. Another subject of the present invention is therefore the use of 1,6-naphthyridinone derivatives of the formula I for controlling vascular diseases.
The compounds of formula I with R.sup.5 =NH.sub.2 are prepared according to process (a) from the corresponding 2-aminodihydropyridines of the formula IX with R.sup.5 =NH.sub.2.
The compounds of the formula XIII ##STR11## thus obtained, wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, and R.sup.6 ' have the above stated meaning, if desired are N-alkylated, N-aminoalkylated, or N-alkoxyalkylated in a generally known manner with a compound of the formula XIV
X--R.sup.2 ' (XIV)
wherein R.sup.2 ' represents a straight-chained or branched lower alkyl group, an alkoxyalkyl group of the formula II or an aminoalkyl group of the formula III.
Compounds of the formula I, in which R.sup.6 represents a carboxyl group, are prepared by hydrolyzing in a previously known manner compounds of the formula I, in which R.sup.6 represents an alkoxycarbonyl radical suitable for the splitting of esters, preferably in an acid medium.
The reaction of s-triazine with the compounds of the formula IX (process a) has to be considered surprising since the literature [Chem. Rev., 82, (1982)] shows that during treatment of1,4-dihydropyridines with strong bases such as sodium hydride the proton at the nitrogen atoms is removed forming a sodium amide which then further reacts, e.g., with alkyl halides to form N-alkyl derivatives. The expected reaction does not occur in this case but an aminomethenylation takes place at the methyl group and produces the compounds of formula XIII.
The 1,4-dihydropyridines of the formula IX used for process (a) and (b) are known [cf., e.g., Chem. Rev., 82, (1982) p. 223] or can be prepared analogously.
Process (c) also is chemically novel since it has to be considered surprising that 2,4-dihydroxypyridine reacts in the manner described.
The compounds of the formula XII are known or may be prepared according to processes known from literature [Org. Reactions, Vol. 15 (1967) p. 204 ff]. 2,4-Dihydroxypyridine is commercially available.
In order to perform reaction (a) the 1,4-dihydropyridine derivative is heated together with s-triazine to temperatures of 50.degree.-160.degree. C., preferably 100.degree.-150.degree. C., in an inert organic solvent in the presence of strong bases such as, e.g., alkali alcoholates or sodium hydride in an inert organic solvent. Suitable solvents are mainly polar solvents such as dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylformamide, ethyleneglycol dimethylether, or lower alcohols such as ethanol.
In order to perform the reaction according to the process variant (b) the corresponding 1,4-dihydropyridine derivative is reacted with an equivalent or excessive quantity of dialkylformamide-dialkylacetal, preferably in the presence of an aprotic solvent such as dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide or hexamethyl phosphoric acid triamide, while heating. Suitable formamide acetals are mainly dimethylformamide-dimethylacetal and dimethylformamide-diethylacetal.
The intermediate product of the formula XI obtained according to the process variant (b) is transferred to compounds of the formula XIII by reaction with ammonia in the presence of a solvent, preferably protic, at room temperature or at a higher temperature, preferably at the boiling temperature of the solvent used. Suitable solvents are mainly lower alcohols such as methanol or ethanol.
Reaction (c) is preferably performed in inert organic solvents, in particular lower alcohols such as, e.g., methanol, ethanol, or isopropanol. It is equally suitable to perform the reaction at higher temperatures, preferably at the boiling temperature of the solvent used. The products of the reaction can be isolated and purified according to known separation methods such as crystallization and/or chromatography.
The compounds of the formula XIII are N-alkylated, N-aminoalkylated, and N-alkoxyalkylated according to previously known methods, preferably using a hydrohalogenide acceptor. If suitable conditions are chosen for the reaction its course shows a high regional selectivity. The products are separated and/or purified by means of chromatography and/or crystallization.
For purification purposes and pharmacotechnological reasons acid or basic compounds of the formula I, which for R.sup.6 show a carboxyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aminoalkoxycarbonyl radical, or for R.sup.2 a substituted or unsubstituted aminoalkyl group, and/or for R.sup.5 an unsubstituted or substituted amino group, are preferably transferred into crystalline, pharmacologically acceptable salts.
If R.sup.6 represents a carboxyl group the corresponding pharmacologically acceptable salts of the alkali or alkaline earth metals can be prepared by means of bases such as, e.g., hydroxides or carbonates. If the radicals R.sup.2, R.sup.5, and R.sup.6 display basic properties the pharmacologically acceptable salts are obtained in the usual way by means of neutralization of the bases with corresponding inorganic or organic acids. Suitable acids are, e.g., hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrobromic acid, acetic acid, tartaric acid, lactic acid, citric acid, malic acid, salicylic acid, ascorbic acid, malonic acid, or succinic acid.
Since the compounds of the formula I according to the invention are showing a chiral center at C-4 they may be present either as racemic mixtures or in the form of the enantiomers.
The compounds of the formula I according to the invention may be applied in liquid or solid form, orally or parenterally. For the injectionsolution mainly water is used containing such additives as stabilizers, solubilizers, or buffers as are usual for injection-solutions.
Such additives are, e.g., tartrate and citrate buffers, ethanol, complex former (such as ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid and the nontoxic salts thereof), as well as high molecular weight polymers (such as liquid polyethyleneoxide) to regulate the viscosity. Solid vehicles are, e.g., starch, lactose, mannitol, methyl cellulose, talcum highly dispersed silicic acids, higher molecular weight fatty acid (such as stearic acid), gelatin, agar-agar, calcium phosphate, magnesium stearate, animal and vegetable fats, solid high molecular weight polymers (such as polyethylene glycol); if desired preparations suited for oral application may in addition contain flavors and/or sweetening agents.
Enterally administered single doses are in the order from about 5 to 250 mg; preferably 20-100 mg. Doses for parenteral application are in the order from about 1 to 20 mg.

The following examples serve to illustrate the invention further.

A suspension of 2.4 g (9 mmol) 3-nitrobenzylidene acetoacetic acid ethyl ester and 1.0 g (9 mmol) 2,4-dihydroxypyridine in 25 ml ethanol is saturated with ammonia gas at room temperature. The suspension is heated for five hours at boiling temperature by continuing the supply of gaseous ammonia. After removing the solvent in a vacuum the residue is dissolved in 50 ml chloroform while heating. The crystals precipitating during cooling are filtered off by suction and purified by crystallization from ethanol/ethyl acetate 1:1. There is obtained 1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2-methyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-5-oxo-1,6-naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester as yellow needles with a melting point of 285.degree. C. (decomposition).

When the gas development has weakened the mixture is heated to 60.degree. C. for a short time (approximately ten minutes) and 12.2 g (150 mmol) s-triazine in 250 ml dimethylformamide are added dropwise. The reaction mixture is heated for 16 hours at boiling temperature, filtered after cooling and concentrated in a vacuum. The dark residue is boiled in 400 ml n-hexane. The undissolved raw product is suspended in 500 ml hot ethanol after decanting off the n-hexane and applied to a column with silica gel. Subsequently elution is carried out with methylene chloride/methanol.ammonia (9:1 v/v) and the desired fraction is recrystallized twice from ethanol/ethyl acetate (1:1 v/v) for further purification.

The following comparative tests illustrate the pharmacological efficacy of the compounds according to the general formula I:
I. AGGREGATION-INHIBITING EFFECT
Collagen or ADP-induced thrombocyte aggregation in vitro (rat)
The test was carried out according to the method of BORN (Nature 194, 927-929, 1962). Male Sprague Dawley SIV 50 rats, which had a body weight of 200 g, served as blood donors. Blood was withdrawn from the postorbital venous plexus under ether anesthesia. Nine aliquots of blood were mixed with one aliquot of 3.8% (w/v) tri-Na-citrate solution. After low speed centrifugation of the mixture at room temperature, the platelet-rich plasma (PRP corresponding to the erythrocyte-frree supernatant) was removed and adjusted to a standard concentration of 400 000/.mu.l. A universal aggregometer (Braun, Melsungen) connected with an Eppendorf photometer 1100M (Netheler and Hinz, Hamburg) was used as a measuring instrument. In this test portions of 700 .mu.l of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) were equilibrated in the aggregometer at 37.degree. C. for five minutes and then mixed with 58 .mu.l of the test substance solution or with a 0.9% NaCl solution (corresponding to the blank value). After an incubation time of three minutes, the addition of 35 .mu.l collagen suspension (collagen reagent HORM(.RTM.), Hormon Chemie, Munich) or 20 .mu.l ADP solution (end concentration in the test 1.times.10.sup.-5 mol/liter) causes aggregation. A compensation recorder recorded the change in transmission during the following 15 minutes.
The largest change in transmission occurring in this period was called amplitude (amp) of the aggregation curve. Aggregation-inhibiting substances produce a decrease of this amplitude; the inhibitory effect (E) of a substance is calculated according to the following formula:
E=(Amp.sub.bank value -AMP.sub.test substance)/Amp.sub.blank value .times.100 (%)
Dose-effect curves were drawn for calculating the IC.sub.50 values. The IC.sub.50 value shows the end concentration of a substance in the test system which results in a decrease of the amplitude by 50%.

II. CARDIOVASCULAR EFFECT
1. Ca.sup.2+ effect on the smooth muscles
Approximately 10 mm long, freshly isolated pieces of the tenia coli (guinea pig) were encircled at both ends with threads and connected with a mechanico-technical transducer in the organ bath (32.degree. C., bubbled through with carbogen). Five to ten mN (0.5-1 p) were selected as mechanical pretension. The Krebs-Henseleit nutrient solution (Ther. 1965) was used for equilibration of the preparation. This solution was exchanged for K+-rich and Ca++-free solution (40 mmol/l) KCl for depolarization of the cell membrane, the NaCl concentration being decreased correspondingly. One mmol/l CaCl.sub.2 was added to the nutrient solution under equilibrium conditions, resulting in a contraction of the muscle preparation. After reaching the new equilibration the test substance was added to the organ bath.
After a ten-minute time of action it was tried to compensate a possible inhibitory effect of the test substance by addition of 12.5 mmol/l CaCl.sub.2 to the organ bath. The percentage inhibition of the contraction amplitude after a ten-minute time of action of the test substance, related to the amplitude prior to administration of the substance, was calculated as substance effect. Each substance was tested in two preparations.
2. Isolated atriums of guinea pigs
In a thermostated (35.degree. C.) dissecting dish containing modified nutrient solution acc. to Krebs-Henseleit the left atrium was cautiously separated from the ventricle myocardium by means of scissors and a needle with thread passed through the apex of the atrium and knotted. Subsequently, the basis of the atrium was fastened to the hook of a preparation holder and transferred to a thermostated organ bath containing nutrient solution (25 ml, 35.degree. C.). In the organ bath the thread at the apex of the atrium was attached to a mechanicoelectric transducer. Electrical stimulation was effected supramaximally with a frequency of 100 imp/min (stimulation range 2.5 msec). The hook of the preparation holder represented an electrode, whereas the second electrode was designed as field electrode in the preparation holder parallel to the tensioned atrium.
The substances were cumulatively added to the organ bath at intervals of four minutes. The IC.sub.50 values stated are approximate values from four atriums and show the substance concentration which approximately produced a 50% inhibition of the contraction amplitude.
