Description: The invention is concerned with novel benz[e]indene derivatives including their salts and quaternary ammonium derivatives with useful pharmaceutical, particularly tranquillo-sedative, anticonvulsive and antianginal, activities and a process for preparing them as well as medicaments containing these compounds and the use of them. The structurally closest Prior Art compounds having the formula with the following meanings of X and Y possess antiviral or antinflammatory effects [Il Farmaco-Ed. Sc. 30 , 568-580 (1975); Arch. Pharm. (Weinheim) 316, 309-315 (1983)]. From French laying open print 2 177 930 there have been known 1,1-disubstituted indane-3-oxime ether and spiro-(cycloalkane-indane)-3-oxime ether having pharmacological effects on the central nervous system, particularly antireserpine effects, as well as antihistaminic and/or anticholinergic effects. Moreover in Chemical Abstracts, Volume 91, No. 17, October 22, 1979, Abstract No. 140604d there has been described 5-methyl-benz[e]ind a ne-1-oxime as intermediate. Furthermore from GB-A-2,235,198 there have been known cyclopentenone oximes which are substituted on the oxime oxygen by an aminoalkylene group which is substituted by a hydroxy group. Tranquillo-sedative and antiangina as well as antiinflammatory activities have been indicated for these compounds; no mention has been of an anticonvulsive activity. The problem underlying to the invention is to create novel benz[e]indene derivatives having valuable pharmacological properties, particularly tranquillo-sedative, anticonvulsive and antianginal, activities, a process for preparing them as well as medicaments containing these compounds and the use of them. Surprisingly this has been solved by the invention. Thus a subject-matter of the invention are benz[e]indene derivatives of the general formula wherein A represents a group of the formula in which latter alk means a C 2-7 alkylene group, optionally substituted by a hydroxy group and R 1 and R 2 stand independently for hydrogen or a C 1-7 alkyl, C 2-7 alkenyl, C 2-7 alkynyl, C 3-7 cycloalkyl, mono-(C 1-7 )alkylamino-(C 1-7 )alkyl or di-(C 1-7 )alkylamino-(C 1-7 )alkyl group or R 1 and R 2 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a 4 to 7 membered heterocyclic ring, optionally comprising an oxygen atom or a further nitrogen atom, which latter may be substituted by a phenyl, benzyl, pyridyl, pyrimidinyl or C 1-3 alkyl group which latter ones, in turn, may be substituted by a hydroxy or methoxy group or a halogen atom or a halophenyl group or R 1 and R 2 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a phthalimido group or A means a pyrimidino group, a 2,3-(epoxy)-propyl group or a group of the formula in which latter R 3 stands for a C 1-7 alkyl, C 2-7 alkenyl or C 3-8 cycloalkyl group and R denotes hydrogen or a C 1-7 alkyl group, and their stereoisomers and optically active isomers and mixtures thereof, as well as acid addition salts and quaternary ammonium derivatives of these compounds.

The biological activity of the compounds according to the invention is shown by the following tests: I. Acute toxicity Mice belonging to the NMRI strain (body weight 20-25 g, both male and female) were used, 6 to 10 animals for each dose. The test compound was administered orally in a volume of 20 ml/kg. The applied maximal dose was 1000 mg/kg. After the treatment the animals were observed for a period of 7 days. The mice were kept in a plastic cage at room temperature. The animals got tap water and standard mouse fodder ad libitum. The toxicity data were determined by the aid of the method of Litchfield and Wilcoxon [Litchfield, J.T., Wilcoxon, F.W.: J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 96 , 99 (1949)]. The results are summarized in Table 1. II. Tranquillo-sedative effect The hexobarbital narcosis potentiating effect was examined on mice. Groups consisting of 6 animals were used for each dose. The animals were treated orally with the test compound, sleeping having been induced 1 hour later by administering a 40 mg/kg i.v. dose of hexobarbital both to the test and control groups. The animals which had a sleeping time more than 2.5 times longer than the control group were considered to show a positive reaction. ED 50 values were calculated from the thus-transformed data [Kaergaard Nielson C. et al., Arch. Int. Pharmacodyn. 2, 170 (1967)]. The results are summarized in Table 2. Hexobarbital narcosis on mice Test compound ED 50 (mg/kg) (or effect observed in the given dose) Designation Example No. 3-[2'-(N,N-Di-〈methyl〉-amino)-ethoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 1 200 (100%) 3-{3'-[4''-(3'''-〈Chloro〉-phenyl)-piperazin-1''-yl]-propoxyimino}-2,3-di-{hydro}-1H-benz[e]indene 12 200 ( 83%) 3-[2'-(N-Piperidinyl)-ethoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 8 100 ( 67%) 3-{3'-[4''-(2'''-〈Methoxy〉-phenyl)-piperazin-1''-yl]-2'-[hydroxy]-propoxyimino}-2,3-di-{hydro}-1H-benz[e]indene 19 67 3-[3'-(Cyclopropylamino)-2'-(hydroxy)-propoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 17 11 2-[Methyl]-2-[propyl]-trimethylenedicarbamate {Meprobamate} Reference substance D 260 From Table 2 it results that the compounds according to the invention have narcotic activities superior to that of the reference substance. The spontaneous motility inhibiting activity was examined according to the method of Borsy et. al. Groups consisting of 3 mice each were treated orally with different doses of the compounds to be tested, then the test animals were placed in a Dews equipment. In this equipment the number of interruptions of infrared beam within 30 minutes was counted. From these data 50% inhibiting doses (ID 50 ) were determined by the aid of a line of regression. [Borsy, J., Csányi, E., Lázár, I.: Arch. Int. Pharmacodyn. 124 , 1 (1960)]. The data are summarized in Table 3. Motility inhibiting activity Test compound ID 50 (mg/kg) Designation Example No. 3-{3'-[4''-(3'''-〈Chloro〉-phenyl)-piperazin-1''-yl]-propoxyimino}-2,3-di-{hydro}-1H-benz[e]indene 12 about 100 3-{3'-[4''-(2'''-〈Methoxy〉-phenyl)-piperazin-1''-yl]-2'-[hydroxy]-propoxyimino}-2,3-di-{hydro}-1H-benz[e]indene 19 43 3-[3'-(Cyclopropylamino)-2'-(hydroxy)-propoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 17 6 2-[Methyl]-2-[propyl]-trimethylenedicarbamate {Meprobamate} Reference substance D 232 From Table 3 it results that the compounds according to the invention are superior to the reference substance as regards the motility inhibiting ativity. The compound of Example 17, the most active member in the structural group, was examined in detail for tranquillizing and sedative effects to establish whether the supposed human therapeutic activity of the compound would be of antipsychotic or of anxiolytic character. III. A Antipsychotic effect The antipsychotic (neuroleptic) effect was measured by the inhibition of the learned conditioned avoidance reflex. The male Wistar rats used for the study were of 120-150 g body weight at the commencement of learning. A shuttle box was used as experimental device; it consisted of two parts, 24x24.5x23 cm each, separated by a wall with a 6x9 cm gate. In response to a suitable warning stimulus, in order to avoid the punishing (unconditioned) stimulus, animals within the box passed through the gate from one part over the other. The warning, i.e. conditioned stimulus (CS), a white light (1 Hz) blinking for 15 seconds, was applied at the place of the actual animal existence. The unconditioned stimulus (US), in form of 0.6 mA intensity electric shock, was randomly applied to the paw during the last 5 seconds of the conditioned stimulus. Animal's movement during the CS and US from one part of the box over the other, was defined as avoidance and escape responses, respectively. Both responses ceased the actual stimulus and stopped the trial. The time elapsed until the next trial (intertrial interval, ITI) was 15 seconds. While one experiment was carried out daily, an experiment consisted of 80 trials. Learning efficiency was expressed as percentage of the successful to the total avoidances. Effect of the neuroleptic drugs was examined in animals with stabilized conditioned reflexes and with at least 75% learning efficiency. Dosing was carried out once a week, one hour before the measurement in the shuttle box. To calculate the neuroleptic effect (50% inhibiting dose, ID 50 ), results obtained after the treatment were compared to those obtained on the previous day (controls). The extrapyramidal syndrome, the most important side effect limiting the application of the neuroleptic drugs in man, can be produced in experimental animals in the form of catalepsy. Our experiments in 150-160 g Wistar rats were performed according to Morpurgo. The catalepsy, appearing 60 minutes after dosing, was scored as follows. Both forelegs of each animal were put for 10 seconds onto a rubber stopper of 3 cm height, then for additional 10 seconds onto a same stopper of 9 cm height. 0.5 and 1 scores per foot (a total of maximum 3 scores) were given if animals failed to return their feet within 10 seconds from the lower and higher stoppers, respectively. The procedure was repeated in each 30 minutes during four hours, obtaining scores proportional to the degree of the catalepsy. Results were used to calculate the minimum effective dose [MED, the lowest dose resulting statistically significant alteration, c.f.: Morpurgo, C.: Arch. Int. Pharmacodyn., 137 , 87 (1962)]. The data thus obtained are summarized in Table 4. Antipsychotic effect on rat Test compound Conditioned reflex ID 50 (mg/kg) Catalepsy [MED (mg/kg)] Reference ratio Designation Example No. 3-[3'-(Cyclopropylamino)-2'-(hydroxy)-propoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 17 26.3 100 3.8 2-[Chlor]-10-[3'-(dimethylamino)-propyl]-phenothiazine {Chlorpromazine} Reference substance A 13.2 20 1.5 10-[2'-(1''-〈Methyl〉-piperid-2''-yl)-ethyl]-2-[methylthio]-phenothiazine {Thioridazine} Reference substance C 108 80 0.7 Conditioned reflex ID 50 From the data of the above Table 4 it can be seen that the compound 3-[3'-(cyclopropylamino)-2'-(hydroxy)-propoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene {Example 17}is superior to 10-[2'-(1''- methyl -piperid-2''-yl)-ethyl]-2-[methylthio]-phenothiazine {Thioridazine} and though inferior to 2-[chlor]-10-[3'-(dimethylamino)-propyl]-phenothiazine {Chlorpromazine} considering the antipsychotic effect it is superior to both reference substances in respect of the dose ratio of the corresponding side und main effects. Consequently a more favourable safety exists in patients treated with the compound 3-[3'-(cyclopropylamino)-2'-(hydroxy)-propoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene {Example 17}. III. B. Anxiolytic effect The anxiolytic effect was tested by using the method of Vogel et. al. Male Wistar rats of 160 - 180 g body weight were kept free of food and drinking water for 24 and 48 hours, respectively. Test and carrier substances were administered intraperitoneally two hours before testing. Animals within the experimental chamber were provided with drinking water through an inserted tube. After the animals' each twenty lapping for water the device emitted a 2 mA intensity electric shock through the drinking tube. During 5 minutes the shocks tolerated by the animals in order to quench their thirst were counted. The effect of treatment was expressed as the % increase of the tolerated shocks. The minimum effective dose (MED) was determined for each test compound [Vogel, J.R., Beer, B., Clody, D.E.: Psychopharmacologia (Berl.) 21 , 1 (1971)]. The data thus obtained are summarized in Table 5. Anxiolytic effect on rat Test compound MED (mg/kg) Designation Example No. 3-[3'-(Cyclopropylamino)-2'-(hydroxy)-propoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 17 0.1 7-(Chlor)-N-(methyl)-5-(phenyl)-3H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-ylamin-4-oxid {Chlordiazepoxide} Reference substance B 2.5 2-[Methyl]-2-[propyl]-trimethylenedicarbamate {Meprobamate} Reference substance D 25 From the above Table 5 it can be seen that the compound 3-[3'-(cyclopropylamino)-2'-(hydroxy)-propoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene {Example 17} is superior to the reference substances by orders of magnitude. Thus, it can be established that the compound 3-[3'-(cyclopropylamino)-2'-(hydroxy)-propoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene {Example 17} has, when administered in higher doses, a neuroleptic, while in case of smaller doses an anxiolytic character. IV. Anticonvulsive activity The pentetrazole spasm inhibiting test was performed according to the modified method of Benziger and Hane. Groups of mice consisting of 6 animals each, belonging to the NMRI strain (body weight: 20-25 g), were treated orally with the compound to be tested and the vehicle without active agent, respectively. 1 hour after the treatment a dosage of 125 mg/kg of pentetrazole was administered to each animal, intraperitoneally, and the tonic spasm of the lower limb extensor was recorded [Benziger, R., Hane, D.: Arch. Int. Pharmacodyn., 167 , 245 (1967)]. The inhibition of nicotine spasm and lethality was examined on mice according to the method of Stone. One hour after the oral treatment a dosage of 1.4 mg/kg of nicotine is injected intravenously, and the spasm developed as well as the lethality within 1 hour were recorded at both the test and control groups. [Stone, C.C., Mecklenburg, K.L., Torchiana, M.L.: Arch. Int. Pharmacodyn., 117 , 419 (1958)]. The ED 50 values were determined according to the method of Litchfield and Wilcoxon. The results are shown in Table 6. Anticonvulsive activity on mice Test compound Inhibition of pentetrazole spasm, ED 50 (mg/kg) Inhibition of nicotine spasm, ED 50 (mg/kg) Designation Example No. 3-[2'-(N-{1''-〈Methyl〉-ethyl}-prop-2'-ylamino)-ethoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 4 - 4 3-[2'-(N,N-Di-〈ethyl〉-amino)-ethoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 3 96 29 3-[2'-(N-Morpholino)-ethoxyimino)]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 11 84 - 3-{3'-[4''-(3'''-〈Chloro〉-phenyl)-piperazin-1''-yl]-propoxyimino}-2,3-di-{hydro}-1H-benz[e]indene 12 30 - 3,3,5-Tri-(methyl)-oxazolidin-2,4-dione {Trimethadione} Reference substance E 400 - α-(Cyclohexyl)-α-(2-piperidinoethyl)-benzylalcohol {Trihexyphenidyl} Reference substance F - 20 From Table 6 it results that the compounds according to the invention have anticonvulsive activities superior to those of the reference substances or about equal to them. V. Analgesic effect The test was carried out on mice, weighing 20-25 g, belonging to the NMRI strain according to the method of Newbould. 0.75% acetic acid is administered to the animals in a volume of 20 ml/kg one hour after the treatment with the test compounds and vehicles, respectively. The characteristic "writhing reactions" were counted for a period of 5 minutes, starting from the fifth minute after challenge. The number of writhing was observed for both the treated and the control group. Each group of animals consisted of at least 10 mice. The 50% inhibition doses (ID 50 ) were determined with the aid of a line of regression [Newbould, B.B.: Brit. J. Pharmacol., 35 , 487 (1969)]. The results are disclosed in Table 7.

VI. Antianginal effect The test was carried out on male rats weighing 180-220 g. The animals were narcotized with the aid of chloralose-urethane. ECG was registered by means of needle electrodes in standard II output. Antianginal effect was tested according to the method of Nieschultz. Experimental coronary insufficiency was induced by administering glanduitrine (4 NE/kg i.v.). The magnitude of the T-wave before and after the administration of glanduitrine was measured in the treated and control groups [Nieschultz, E., Popendiker, K., Hoffmann, I.: Arzneim.-Forsch., 5 , 680 (1955)]. The results are summarized in Table 8 Antianginal effect on rat Test compound Inhibition in a dose of 2 mg/kg ED 50 (mg/kg) Designation Example No. 3-[2'-(N-{1''-〈Methyl〉-ethyl}-prop-2'-ylamino)-ethoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e)indene 4 100% 0.19 3-[2'-(N-Morpholino)-ethoxyimino)]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 11 54% 3-{3'-[4''-(3'''-〈Chloro〉-phenyl)-piperazin-1''-yl]-propoxyimino}-2,3-di-{hydro}-1H-benz[e]indene 12 56% 3-[2'-(N-Piperidinyl)-ethoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 8 56% 3-[(0-Cyclohexylcarbamoyl)-oxime]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 22 59% 3-{3'-[4''-(2'''-〈Hydroxy〉-ethyl)-piperazin-1''-yl]-2'-[hydroxy]-propoxyimino}-2,3-di-{hydro}-1H-benz[e]indene 18 59% 3-[3'-(Cyclopropylamino)-2'-(hydroxy)-propoxyimino]-2,3-di-[hydro]-1H-benz[e]indene 17 50% (RS)-N-[3,3-Di-(phenyl)-propyl]-α-methylphenethylamine {Prenylamine} Reference substance I 41% 6.6 From Table 8 it results that the compounds according to the invention have antianginal activities superior to that of the reference substance. VII. Local analgesic effect The test was carried out according to the method of Truant d'Amato. 0.2 ml of test material was injected around the nervus ischiadicus in the middle of femur with a needle of 1 cm length. The criterion of analgesic effect was the lack of the motoric control of foot muscles. The duration of effect was registered and the 50 percent effective concentration (EC 50 ) was calculated on the basis of the doseeffect curve. Lidocain was used as reference substance [Truant d'Amato, A.P., Wiedling, S.: Acta Chir. Scand., 116 , 351 (1958)]. The results are disclosed in Table 9.

VIII. Antiinflammatory effect The antiinflammatory effect was investigated on Wistar rats weighing 150-180g according to the method of Winter et al. 0.1 ml of a 1 per cent carrageen suspension was injected subcutaneously into the plantar region of one of the hind paws. The animals were fasted for 12 hours and received drinking water ad libitum. One hour before treatment with the test compound the rats were hydrated orally with 30 ml/kg of tap water. The test compounds and the vehicle were administered p.o. in a volume of 10 ml/kg, then 1 hour later carrageen was applied. The volume of the treated paw was measured by mercury-plethysmometer before and 3 hours after injection in such a way that displacement of the liquid arising from the volume alteration was indicated on a millimeter scale. The dose resulting in an inhibition of 30% (ID 30 ) was determined by the aid of a line of regression [Winter, C.A., Risley, E.A., Nuss, G.W.: Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med., 111 , 544 (1962)]. The results are summarized in Table 10.
