This invention relates to new and useful benzo- thiazine dioxide derivatives. More particularly, it is concerned with certain novel p-aminomethylbenzoyl derivatives of 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide and several other closely-related oxicams, which are of special value as prodrugs in view of their unique chemotherapeutic properites.

In the past, various attempts have been made.to obtain new and better anti-inflammatory agents. For the most part, these efforts have involved the synthesis and testing of various steroidal compounds such as the corticosteroids or non-steroidal substances of an acidic nature such as phenylbutazone, indomethacin and the like, including a new agent known as piroxicam. The latter substance is a member of a class of anti-inflammatory/analgesic N-heteroaryl-4-hydroxy-2-methyl-2H-l,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxides (kncwn as oxicams) described and claimed in U.S. Patent No. 3,591,584 and is specifically, 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(2-pyridinyly-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide. Other agents of this type are disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,787,324, 3,822,258, 4,180,662 and 4,376,768. In U.S. Patent No. 4,434,164, there is specifically described and claimed the ethylenediamine, monoethanolamine and diethanolamine salts of 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide, which are particularly valuable in pharmaceutical dosage forms as non-steroidal therapeutic agents for the treatment of painful inflammatory conditions, such as those caused by rheumatoid arthritis, since they are all crystalline, non- hygroscopic, rapidly-dissolving solids with high water solubility. In U.S. Patent No. 4,309,427, there are disclosed certain novel acyl derivatives of 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-l,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide and 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(6-methyl-2-pyridinyl)-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide l,l-dioxide, respectively, which are useful as non-steroidal therapeutic agents for alleviating various inflammatory conditions, including those of the skin, especially when given via the topical route of administration. However, in the continuing search for still more improved anti-inflammatory/analgesic agents, there is a need for anti-arthritic agents that are orally administrable and yet at the same time are soluble in dilute acid, stable in acid and are highly effective therapeutically when given in a single daily dose.

In accordance with the present invention, it has now been found that certain novel p-aminomethylbenzoyl derivatives of 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide and several other closely-related known oxicams are useful in therapy as prodrug forms of the known anti-inflammatory and analgesic oxicams. Consequently, the compounds of this invention are useful in therapy as non-steroidal therapeutic agents for alleviating painful inflammatory conditions such as those caused by rheumatoid arthritis, for example. The novel p-aminomethylbenzoyl derivatives of this invention are of the formula:

Benzothiazine dioxide derivatives专利检索-·带有连接在非环碳原子上的氨基和连接在同一碳架的六元芳环碳原子上的羧基专利检索查询-专利查询网 (1)and include the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, wherein R is 2-pyridyl, 6-methyl-2-pyridyl, 6-fluoro-2-pyridyl, 6-chloro-2-pyridyl, 5-methyl-3-isoxazolyl or 2-thiazolyl; Y is N,N-dialkylamino having up to three carbon atoms in each alkyl moiety, N-methyl-N-benzylamino, N-ethyl-N-benzylamino, N-methyl-N-(β-phenylethyl)amino, N-ethyl-N-(β-phenylethylamino, N-methyl-N-cycloalkylamino and N-ethyl-N-cycloalkylamino each having up to six carbon atoms in the cycloalkyl moiety, N-methyl-N-phenylamino, N-ethyl-N-phenylamino, N-methyl-N-(p-chlorophenyl)amino, N-ethyl-N-(p-chlorophenyl)-amino, N-methyl-N-(N',N'-dimethylcarbamylmethyl)amino, N-methyl-N-(N',N'-diethylcarbamylmethyl)amino, pyrrolidino, piperidino, 2-methylpiperidino, 2-ethylpiperidino, hom*opiperidino, 1-azacyclooctyl, N-methyl- piperazino, morpholino or thiomorpholino; Z is pyridinium, 2-methylpyridinium, 3-methylpyridinium, 4-methylpyridinium, 2,6-dimethylpyridinium, 2,4,6-trimethylpyridinium, 3-ethylpyridinium, 4-ethylpyridinium, 3-ethyl-4-methylpyridinium, 4-ethyl-2-methylpyridinium or 5-ethyl-2-methylpyridinium; and A is a pharmacologically acceptable 4nion.

All the compounds of this invention are useful in therapy, as aforesaid, as prodrug forms of the known anti-inflammatory and analgesic oxicams from which they are derived. The term "prodrug" , when used in this connection, refers to compounds which are drug precursors which, following administration and absorption release the drug in vivo via some metabolic pathway or process such as hydrolysis. Accordingly, these novel compounds are particularly valuable as non-steroidal therapeutic agents for the treatment of painful inflammatory conditions, especially those caused by rheumatoid arthritis, and are particularly adapted for use in various pharmaceutical dosage forms, including those designed for oral, topical or parenteral administration. Moreover, the prodrugs of this invention are unusual in that they are readily soluble in dilute acid (and therefore readily solubilized in gastric juice), stable in acid and are highly active as anti-inflammatory/analgesic agents on the basis of a single daily dose to animals. Hence, the preferred route of administration for the presently-claimed compounds is oral, although parenteral formulations are also readily made with these soluble compounds.

Of especial interest in this connection are such typical and preferred member compounds of the invention as 2-methyl-4-[4-(morpholinomethyl)benzoyloxy]-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-l,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide, 2-methyl-4-[4-(piperidinomethyl)benzoyloxy]-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide, 2-methyl-N-(6-methyl-2-pyridinyl)-4-[4-(piperidinomethyl)benzoyloxy]-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide, 2-methyl-4-[4-(4-methyl- piperazinomethyl)benzoyloxy]-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-I,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide and 2-methyl-4-[4-(pyridiniummethyl)benzoyloxy]-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide chloride, including their hydrochloride acid addition salts. These particular compounds are especially effective in treating many painful inflammatory conditions when administered by the oral or parenteral route.

In the process for preparing the novel compounds of this invention, the parent oxicam compound of the formula:

Benzothiazine dioxide derivatives专利检索-·带有连接在非环碳原子上的氨基和连接在同一碳架的六元芳环碳原子上的羧基专利检索查询-专利查询网 (2)wherein R is defined as aforesaid, is treated with at least an equivalent amount in the moles of an acyl halide of the formula:

Benzothiazine dioxide derivatives专利检索-·带有连接在非环碳原子上的氨基和连接在同一碳架的六元芳环碳原子上的羧基专利检索查询-专利查询网 (3)or a hydrochloride acid addition salt thereof, wherein Y, Z and A are each as previously defined and X is either chlorine or bromine. This reaction is normally carried out in a reaction-inert organic solvent under substantially anhydrous conditions in the presence of at least an equivalent amount of an appropriate standard base. In general, the reaction is conducted at a temperature of from about 0°C. up to about 50°C. for a period of about one-half to about 125 hours, although it is usually most convenient to carry out the reaction at or about room temperature after combining the reactants together at a reduced temperature, e.g., 0 to 10°C. Although any inert organic solvent may be used, it is generally most desirable to employ such solvents as aromatic hydrocarbons, halogenated lower hydrocarbons, lower alkyl ketones, lower alkyl esters of lower alkane hydrocarbon carboxylic acids, lower dialkyl ethers, dioxane and tetrahydrofuran. Preferred aromatic hydrocarbons include benzene, toluene and xylene; preferred halogenated lower hydrocarbons include methylene chloride, chloroform, ethylene dichloride and s-tetrachloroethane; preferred lower alkyl ketones include acetone, methyl ethyl ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone; preferred lower alkyl esters. include methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, methyl propionate and ethyl propionate; while preferred lower dialkyl ethers include diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether and di-n-butyl ether. Appropriate standard bases for use in this process include the alkali metal and alkaline-earth metal oxides, bicarbonates and carbonates, such as magnesium oxide, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate and magnesium carbonate, as well as tertiary amines such as triethylamine, N,N-dimethylaniline and pyridine. It should be noted that the standard base employed must be present in sufficient amount to neutralize the liberated hydrogen halide formed in the reaction. Triethylamine is most preferred because it can easily be removed from the reaction mixture in the form of an insoluble solid hydrohalide precipitate.

The reaction is conveniently followed by thin-layer chromatography, thereby determining reaction times sufficient to provide complete reaction and at the same time avoiding unnecessary heating costs and excessive reaction time, which can increase the level of by-products and reduce yields.

The starting material required for preparing the novel 4-acyloxy-2-methyl-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-1,2-benzo- thiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide derivatives of this invention are all known compounds. For instance, 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-1,1-benzo- thiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide (piroxicam), 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(6-methyl-2-pyridinyl)-2H-l,2-ben- zothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide and 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(2-thiazolyl)-2H-l,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide are all fully described in U.S. Patent No. 3,591,584 to J.G. Lombardino, as well as in the paper to J.G. Lombardino et al., appearing in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, Vol. 16, p. 493 (1973), including their synthesis from readily available organic materials. The other closely-related oxicams required as starting materials in the process of this invention are readily available by methods well known to those skilled in the art, e.g., see the patent references to the other oxicams cited in the background section of the instant specification.

The acyl halide compounds employed as acylating agents in the herein described process of this invention, on the other hand, are themselves new compounds which are prepared by treating the corresponding 4-aminomethylbenzoic acid or a hydrohalide acid addition salt thereof with an appropriate halogenating agent like thionyl chloride or bromide, or oxalyl chloride, in accordance with the classical methods of organic synthesis as hereinafter described in the experimental section of this specification in some detail (see Preparations N-Y). The 4-aminomethylbenzoic acid compounds, are, for the most part, also new compounds which are obtained by reacting the known α-chlora-p-toluylic acid with the corresponding organic amine in accordance with standard organic procedure as hereinafter described in greater detail at the beginning of experimental section of this specification (see Preparations A-M).

The oxicam prodrugs of the present invention are all readily adapted to therapeutic use as anti- arthritic agents. For instance, 2-methyl-4-[4-(piperidino-methyl)benzoyloxy]-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide, a typical and preferred agent of the present invention, exhibits anti-inflammatory activity in the standard carrageenin-induced rat foot edema test [described by C.A. Winter et al., Proc. Exp. Biol. Med., Vol. 111, p. 544 (1962)], where it was found to cause a 47% inhibition in swelling at the 32 mg./kg. dose level when given by the oral route. The herein described p-aminomethylbenzoyl derivatives exhibit additional advantages. For instance, 2-methyl-4-[4-(piperidinomethyl)-benzoyloxy]-N-(2-pyridinyl)-2H-I,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide 1,1-dioxide has a bioavailability value of 84% in rats, is soluble in dilute acid and is also stable in dilute acid at 37°C. for a period of more than 24 hours, in addition to being highly effective as an anti-inflammatory/analgesic agent on the basis of a single daily dose to animals. The other prodrugs of this invention also afford similar results.

The herein described oxicam prodrugs of this invention can be administered via either the oral, parenteral or topical routes. In general, these compounds are most desirably administered in doses ranging from about 5.0 mg. up to about 1000 mg. per day, although variations will necessarily occur depending upon the weight and condition of the subject being treated and the particular route of administration chosen. However, a dosage level that is in the range of from about 0.08 mg. to about 16 mg. per kg. of body weight per day is most desirably employed. Nevertheless, variations may still occur depending upon the species of animal being treated and its individual response to said medicament, as well as on the type of pharmaceutical formulation chosen and the time period and interval at which such administration is carried out. In some instances, dosage levels below the lower limit of the aforesaid range may be more than adequate, while in other cases still larger doses may be employed without causing any harmful side effects provided that such higher dose levels are first divided into several smaller doses for administration throughout the day.

The oxicam prodrugs of the invention of this invention may be administered alone or in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers by either of the three routes previously indicated. More particularly, the novel therapeutic agents of the invention can be administered in a wide variety of different dosage forms, i.e., they may be combined with various pharmaceutically acceptable inert carriers in the form of tablets, capsules, lozenges, troches, hard candies, powders, sprays, creams, salves, suppositories, jellies, pastes, lotions, ointments, aqueous suspensions, injectable solutions, elixirs, syrups, and the like. Such carriers include solid diluents or fillers, sterile aqueous media and various non-toxic organic solvents, etc. Moreover, oral pharmaceutical compositions can be suitably sweetened and/or flavored. In general, the therapeutically-effective compounds of this invention are present in such dosage forms at concentration levels ranging from about 0.5% to about 90% by weight.

For oral administration, tablets containing various excipients such as microcrystalline cellulose, sodium citrate, calcium carbonate, dicalcium phosphate and glycine may be employed along with various disintegrants such as starch and preferably corn, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid and certain complex silicates, together with granulation binders like polyvinylpyrrolidone, gelatin and acacia. Additionally, lubricating agents such as magnesium sterarate, sodium lauryl sulfate and talc are often very useful for tabletting purposes. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in gelatin capusles; preferred materials also include lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols. When aqueous suspensions and/or elixirs are desired for oral administration, the active ingredient may be combined with various sweetening or flavoring agents, coloring matter or dyes, and, if so desired, emulsifying and/or suspending agents as well, together with such diluents as water, ethanol, propylene glycol, glycerin and various like combinations thereof.

For parenteral administration, solutions of these oxicam prodrugs in either sesame or peanut oil or in aqueous propylene glycol may be employed. The aqueous solutions should be suitably buffered (pH>8) if necessary and the liquid diluent first rendered isotonic. These aqueous solutions are suitable for intravenous injection purposes. The oily solutions are suitable for intra-articular, intramuscular and subcutaneous injection purposes. Additionally, it is also possible to administer the aforesaid oxicam prodrugs topically when treating inflammatory conditions of the skin or the eye and this may be preferably done by way of creams, jellies, pastes, ointments, solutions and the like, in accordance with standard pharmaceutical practice.

The anti-inflammatory activity of the compounds of the present invention is demonstrated in the previously mentioned standard carrageenin-induced rat foot edema test. In this test, anti-inflammatory activity is determined as the percent inhibition of edema formation in the hind paw of male albino rats (weighing 150-190 g.) in response to a sub-plantar injection of carrageenin. The carrageenin is injected as a 1% aqueous suspension (0.05 ml.) one hour after oral administration of the drug, which is normally given in the form of an aqueous solution. Edema formation is then assessed by measuring the volume of the injected paw initially as well as three hours after the carrageenin injection. The increase in volume three hours after carageenin injection constitutes the individual response. Compounds are considered active if the difference in response between the drug-treated animals (six rats/group) and a control group receiving the vehicle alone is significant on comparison with the results afforded by a standard compound like phenylbutazone at 33 mg./kg., via by the oral route of administration.

PREPARATION A

To a well-stirred suspension consisting of 51.2 g. (0.30 mole) of 0(-chloro-p-toluylic acid in 500 ml. of ethanol under a nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature (~ 20°C.), a solution consisting of 112.4 g. (1.32 mole) of piperidine (130.5 ml) dissolved in 100 ml. of ethanol was added dropwise over a period of 30 minutes. The resulting solution was refluxed for a period of 22.5 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The solvent was removed in vacuo to afford an amber gum. The latter material was then treated with 150 ml. of 3N aqueous sodium hydroxide to give a yellow solution and extracted three times with diethyl ether. The basic aqueous layer was chilled in an ice-water bath and acidified with 65 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid. This resulted in the formation of a white solid precipitate which was stirred in the cold for 15 minutes, filtered, washed with a small volume of water and air-dried overnight to give 77.71 g. of an off-white solid. Trituration of the crude product with 1500 ml. of hot isopropanol for a period of five minutes, followed by filtration and drying then gave 31.44 g. (41%) of pure 4-(piperidinomethyl)benzoic acid hydrochloride, m.p. 290-292°C. (decomp.). Additional pure product (yield, 18.85 g.) was later recovered from the isopropanol mother liquors to bring the total yield of final product to 50.29 g. (66%). The pure product was characterized by means of thin layer chromatography, infrared absorption spectra and elemental analysis.

The latter material was then treated with 100 ml. of 3N aqueous sodium hydroxide and the resulting solution subsequently extracted three times with 100 ml. of diethyl ether. The basic aqueous layer was cooled in an ice bath, acidified with concentrated hydrochloric acid and filtered to afford a tan solid (yield, 24.7 g.) melting at 271-273°C. The solid was crystallized from ca. 300 ml. of hot ethanol to yield 11.85 g. (46%) of pure 4-(morpholinomethyl)benzoic acid hydrochloride, m.p. 274-276°C. The pure product was characterized by means of mass spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance data, thin layer chromatography and infrared absorption spectra, in addition to elemental analysis.

(0.10 mole) of α-chloro-p-toluylic acid in 150 ml. of absolute ethanol under a nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature (~20°C.), a solution consisting of 44.1 g. (0.44 mole) of N-methylpiperazine dissolved in 50 ml. of ethanol was added dropwise. The resulting reaction mixture was refluxed for a period of 16 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The cooled reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the thus obtained residue partitioned between 100 ml. of diethyl ether and 100 ml. of 3N aqueous sodium hydroxide. The separated aqueous layer was then washed three times with 100 ml. of diethyl ether, cooled in an ice-water bath and subsequently acidified with concentrated hydrochloric acid. The resulting solids were filtered and air-dried, followed by trituration with 150 ml. of boiling isopropyl alcohol and stirring for a period of two minutes. After filtering while hot and drying the product there were obtained 9.4 g. (35%) of pure 4-(4-methylpiperazinomethyl)benzoic acid dihydrochloride as the hemihydrate, m.p. 310-312°C. The pure product was characterized by means of thin layer chromatography and infrared absorption spectra, in addition to elemental analysis.

PREPARATION D

To a well-stirred suspension consisting of 11.9 g. (0.07 mole) of α-chloro-p-toluylic acid in 140 ml. of ethanol under a nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature (~20°C.), 17.0 g. (0.15 mole) of 2-ethylpiperidine were added dropwise over a period of twenty minutes. The resulting reaction mixture was refluxed for a period of 23 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The solvent was removed in vacuo to afford an off-white solid. This material was dissolved in 100 ml. of 3N aqueous sodium hydroxide to give a hazy solution, which was diluted with 50 ml. of water and extracted three times with 75 ml. of diethyl ether. The aqueous layer was chilled in an ice-water bath and cautiously acidified with 30 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid, followed by stirring in the cold for a period of 20 minutes. This resulted in the formation of a yellow oil, which was separated and dissolved in isopropanol. Concentration of the latter solution in vacuo gave a gummy white solid, which was triturated with ca. 20 ml. of ethanol to give a white solid (yield, 2.75 g.) melting at 243-245°C. This product was designated as fraction A.

A solid eventually precipitated in the remaining aqueous layer and was collected by means of filtration to afford a pure white solid product (yield, 3.35 g.) melting at 242-244°C. This product represented fraction B.

Fractions A and B (both slightly impure product) were then combined (total yield, 6.10 g.) and recrystallized from ca. 100 ml. of ethanol to yield 3.05 g. (15%) of pure 4-(2-ethylpiperidinomethyl)-benzoic acid hydrochloride, m.p. 247-248°C. The pure product was characterized by means of mass spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance data, thin layer chromatography and infrared absorption spectra, in addition to elemental analysis.

(0.155 mole) of heptamethyleneimine were added over a period of twenty minutes. The resulting solution was refluxed for a period of 27.5 hours and then cooled to room temperature. It was then allowed to stand at ambient temperature for 64 hours. The solvent was removed in vacuo to afford an orange gum. The gum was treated with 100 ml. of 3N aqueous sodium hydroxide to give a hazy solution, which was extracted three times with 100 ml. of diethyl ether. The basic aqueous layer was poured over a chilled mixture consisting of 30 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid containing 50 g. of ice. The resulting mixture was then stirred in the cold for a period of 30 minutes, after which time an insoluble oil was observed to separate. The aqueous layer was decanted away from the oil and concentrated in vacuo to afford a waxy white solid, which was washed twice with ca. 50 ml. of ethanol and air-dried to yield 38.15 g. of an off-white solid. The solid was washed with 400 ml. of hot ethanol to remove inorganic insolubles. The ethanolic filtrate was concentrated to a volume of ca. 175 ml. and placed in a refrigerator for 16 hours to induce crystallization. The resulting pinkish-white crystalline product was then collected by means of filtration to afford 2.32 g. (12%) of pure 4-(1-azacyclooctyl- methyl)benzoic acid hydrochloride as a quarter hydrate, m.p. 224-226°C. Additional pure product (yield, 9.85 g.) was later recovered from the ethanol mother liquors to bring the total yield of final product to 12.17 g. (61%). The pure product was characterized by means of mass spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance data, thin layer chromatography and infrared absorption spectra, in addition to elemental analysis.

PREPARATION F

A mixture consisting of 17.1 g. (0.10 mole) of α-chloro-p-toluylic acid, 15.0 g. (0.33 mole) of dimethylamine and 200 ml. of ethanol was placed in a 500 ml. stainless steel vessel. The sealed vessel was placed in an oil bath which had been heated to 90°C. and the entire system was heated at 85-90°C. for 21 hours. The reaction was then chilled in an ice bath for one hour. The bomb was opened and its contents filtered to remove a small amount of insoluble white solid. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to give a waxy off-white solid containing a small amount of oil. The residue was dissolved in 50 ml. of 3N aqueous sodium hydroxide and extracted three times with 50 ml. of diethyl ether. The basic aqueous layer was chilled and acidified with 13.5 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid. The resulting slurry was then stirred in the cold for a period of 30 minutes, followed by filtration to give a beige solid (yield, 15.1 g.). This was not the desired product. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to afford a solid residue, which was washed with ca. 40 ml. of ethanol and dried in vacuo to yield an off-white solid substance. The solids was recrystallized from ethanol to yield 2.63 g. (12%) of pure 4-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)benzoic acid hydrochloride as a quarter hydrate, m.p. 225°C. (decomp.).

PREPARATION G

To a well-stirred suspension consisting of 17.1 g. (0.10 mole) of α-chloro-p-toluylic aid in 200 ml. of ethanol under a nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature (~20°C.), 32.2 g. (0.44 mole) of diethylamine were added dropwise over a period of 20 minutes. The resulting reaction was refluxed for a period of 17 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The solvent was removed in vacuo to give an oil-solid mixture. The latter residue was then dissolved in 50 ml. of IN aqueous sodium hydroxide and extracted with ca. 50 ml. of diethyl ether. The basic aqueous layer was acidified with 3N hydrochloric acid to pH 3.0, followed by concentration of the resulting acidic solution under reduced pressure to ultimately afford a crude beige solid product. The product was then taken up in ca. 300 ml. of ethanol and filtered to remove insoluble sodium chloride, followed by concentration of the filtrate in vacuo to yield a crude white solid (yield, 33.5 g.). The latter material was recrystallized from ca. 50 ml. of isopropanol and filtered to afford 15.0 g. of material melting of 140-160°C. (fraction A). An additional 1.8 g. of product was recovered from the mother liquor and this material melted at 125-140°C. (fraction B). Fractions A and B were combined and taken up in 175 ml. of isopropanol, followed by concentration of the alcoholic solution to 125 ml. The resulting crystalline product was collected by filtration to yield 13.0 g. (54%) of pure 4-(N,N-diethyl- aminomethyl)benzoic acid hydrochloride, m.p. 191-193°C. [literature m.p. 185°C., as reported in Annalen der Chemie, Vol. 310, p. 207 (1900)]. The pure product was characterized by means of mass spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance data, thin layer chromatography and infrared absorption spectra.

PREPARATION H

To a well-stirred suspension consisting of 14.3 g. (0.084 mole) of α-chloro-p-toluylic acid in 200 ml. of absolute ethanol under a nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature (~20°C.), there were added 25 g. (0.185 mole) of N-methyl-N-(β-phenylethyl)amine dissolved in 50 ml. of absolute ethanol. The resulting reaction mixture was refluxed for a period of 18 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The cooled reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the resulting residue was partitioned three times between 100 ml. of 3N aqueous sodium hydroxide and 100 ml. of diethyl ether. The basic aqueous layer was cooled in an ice bath, followed by careful acidification with concentrated hydrochloric acid to yield a white solid precipitate. The latter product was recovered by filtration and then stirred vigorously in acetonitrile for 30 minutes. After filtering the mixture and drying, there were ultimately obtained 20.26 g. (79%) of 4-[N-methyl-N-(β-phenylethyl)aminomethyl]benzoic acid hydrochloride, m.p. 268-269°C., in the form of a white crystalline powder.

To a well-stirred suspension consisting of 20.0 g. (0.117 mole) of α-chloro-p-tolylic acid in 150 ml. of absolute ethanol under a nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature (~20°C.), a solution consisting of 27.7 g. (0.245 mole) of N-methyl-N-cyclohexylamine dissolved in 50 ml. of absolute ethanol was added dropwise. The resulting reaction mixture was refluxed for 20 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The cooled reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was partitioned between 100 ml. of diethyl ether and 100 ml. of 3N aqueous sodium hydroxide. The basic aqueous layer was then separated and extracted three times with diethyl ether and thereafter cooled in an ice-water bath, followed by careful acidification with concentrated hydrochloric acid to pH 1.0. This resulted in the formation of an oil, and the resulting oil/water system was stirred vigorously with 200 ml. of methylene chloride. A small band of oil then formed between the two layers of the aqueous organic system, and this oil was separated and thereafter triturated with diethyl ether to eventually yield a white solid product. The latter product was subsequently collected by means of suction filtration, triturated with hot isopropanol and filtered again, followed by drying to afford 13.5 g. (41%) of pure 4-(N-methyl-N-cyclohexylaminomethyl)benzoic acid hydrochloride as the hydrate, m.p. 266-268°C. The pure product was characterized by means of thin layer chromatography and infrared absorption spectra, in addition to elemental analysis.

(0.0246 mole) of triethylamine (3.44 ml). The resulting solution was then treated with a suspension of 3.0 g. (0.0092 mole) of 4-(4-methylpiperazinomethyl)benzoyl chloride dihydrochloride in 50 ml. of methylene chloride, which was added in a portion-wise manner. The resulting reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for approximately 18 hours. The stirred mixture was successively extracted two times with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and one time with saturated aqueous sodium chloride, followed by drying of the organic layer over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After removal of the drying agent by filtration and the solvent by evaporation under reduced pressure, there was obtained a residual orange foam. This foam was dissolved in 500 ml. of ethyl acetate, filtered and the resulting filtrate concentrated to a volume of ca. 50 ml. and allowed to stand at room temperature. The resulting white solid product was collected by filtration and then dried to ultimately yield 800 mg.
