     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     The compounds of formula I, and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, can be prepared from the corresponding compound having the formula ##STR3## Compounds of formula II are known in the art; see, for example, the disclosure of U.S. Pat. No. 4,053,514, issued Oct. 11, 1977. 
     As disclosed in the prior art, the compounds of formula II are prepared by reacting a ketone having the formula ##STR4## with a benzaldehyde derivative having the formula ##STR5## in an alkanol solvent at a reduced temperature of 0° C. to about -25° C. The reaction is preferably run in the presence of a base. 
     Those compounds of formula I wherein R 1  is alkyl or aryl are prepared by reacting the corresponding compound of formula II with the appropriate Grignard or lithium reagent having the formula 
     
         R&#39;.sub.1 --MgBr,                                           V 
    
     or 
     
         R&#39;.sub.1 --Li.                                             VI 
    
     The symbol R&#39; 1  represents alkyl or aryl. When a Grignard reagent of formula V is used as a reactant the reaction is run at room temperature in an organic solvent, e.g., tetrahydrofuran. Optionally, the reaction may be run in the presence of trace amounts of metal halides. When a lithium reactant of formula VI is used, the reaction is run in an organic solvent, e.g., ether at the reflux temperature of the solvent. 
     Those compounds of formula I wherein R 1  is hydrogen are prepared by catalytic hydrogenation of the corresponding compound of formula II. Exemplary of the many art-recognized procedures of catalytic hydrogenation is the use of a palladium catalyst and an organic solvent (e.g., ethyl acetate) in a Parr hydrogenator. 
     The compounds of formula I form acid addition salts with inorganic and organic acids, using art-recognized procedures. Exemplary salts are the hydrohalides, sulfate, nitrate, phosphate, borate, acetate, pamoate, tartrate, citrate, maleate, benzoate, methanesulfonate, toluenesulfonate and the like. 
     The compounds of formula I, and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are useful for the treatment of inflammation in mammalian species, e.g., rats, dogs, cats, monkeys, etc. Joint tenderness and stiffness (in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis) are relieved by the above-described compounds. 
     The compounds of this invention, and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, can be formulated for use as antiinflammatory agents according to accepted pharmaceutical practice in oral dosage forms such as tablets, capsules, elixirs or powders, or in injectable form in a sterile aqueous vehicle prepared according to conventional pharmaceutical practice. The compounds of this invention may be administered in amounts of 100 milligrams per 70 kilograms of animal body weight per day to 2 grams per 70 kilograms of animal body weight per day, preferably 100 milligrams per 70 kilograms of animal body weight per day to 1 gram per 70 kilograms of animal body weight per day. 
    
    
     The following examples are specific embodiments of this invention. 
     EXAMPLE 1

After 4 hours at room temperature the mixture is poured into a cold solution of 7.0 g of ammonium chloride in 70 ml of water and the product is extracted with ether (three 150 ml portions). The combined extracts are dried over magnesium sulfate and the solvent removed on a rotary evaporator to give 16.7 g of the free base of the title compound as an oil. 
     The base (13.2 g) is dissolved in 65 ml of acetonitrile and treated with a warm solution of 3.4 g of oxalic acid in 50 ml of acetonitrile.

     (B) 2-[1-[4-[3-(Dimethylamino)propoxy]phenyl]ethyl]-3,4-dihydro-6-methoxy-1(2H)-naphthalenone, hydrochloride (1:1) 
     2-[[4-[3-(Dimethylamino)propoxy]phenyl]methylene]-3,4-dihydro-6-methoxy-1(2H)-naphthalenone (10 g) is reacted with 15 ml of 3 M methyl magnesium bromide in 90 ml of tetrahydrofuran following the procedure described in Example 1B to give 11.5 g of the free base of the title compound. 
     The base is dissolved in 60 ml of acetonitrile and treated with a solution of 3.5 g of oxalic acid in 60 ml of acetonitrile to yield 10.5 g of the oxalate salt, melting point 134°-136° C. (sintering at 130° C.). Following crystallization from 200 ml of methanol-300 ml of ether, the oxalate salt weighs 8.1 g, melting point 138°-140° C. (sintering at 132° C.). 
     The oxalate salt is converted to the base using 4 g of potassium carbonate and ether extractions, and the base (6.0 g) is dissolved in methylene chloride and treated with 3.1 ml of 5.3 N alcoholic hydrogen chloride. After removing the solvents on a rotary evaporator, the glass-like residue is rubbed under ether (evaporation repeated) and stirred with 30 ml of boiling acetone to give (after cooling for about 16 hours), 5.1 g of solid, melting point 111°-114° C. (sintering at 100° C.). This material which forms a solvate with acetone is dissolved in 50 ml of warm chloroform and reprecipitated with 400 ml of ether. The yield of the title compound is 4.6 g, melting point 141°-143° C. (sintering at 130° C.). 
     EXAMPLE 6 
     2-[1-[2-[3-(Dimethylamino)propoxy]phenyl]ethyl]-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone, citrate salt (1:1) 
     (A) 2-[[2-[ 3-(Dimethylamino)propoxy]phenyl]methylene]-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone 
     α-Tetralone (26.4 g) and 40 g of 2-[3-(dimethylamino)propoxy]benzaldehyde are reacted in 180 ml of ethanol in the presence of 1.2 g of potassium hydroxide following the procedure in Example 1A. The product is extracted with ether and the solvent is evaporated to give a viscous residue (67.2 g), which begins to solidify on standing. It is crystallized from a mixture of 120 ml of warm diisopropylether and 120 ml of hexane to give 45.7 g of crystals, melting point 67-69° C. 
     (B) 2-[1-[2-[3-(Dimethylamino)propoxy]phenyl]ethyl]-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone, citrate salt (1:1) 
     Twenty grams of 2-[[2-[3-(dimethylamino)propoxy]phenyl]methylene]-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone is reacted with 35 ml of 3 M methyl magnesium bromide in 200 ml of tetrahydrofuran as described in Example 1B. During the addition of the Grignard reagent, a greenish color develops, then changes to yellow and finally to yellow-orange on continued stirring. The product is 23.2 g of the crude free base of the title compound. 
     The free base (which darkens somewhat on standing) is taken up in 300 ml of methanol, treated with 5.4 g of oxalic acid (color of the solution lightens slightly), and the solvent is removed on a rotary evaporator. The residue is rubbed under ether (two times; evaporation is repeated each time) to give 29 g of a foamy product. When the latter is dissolved in 100 ml of methyl ethyl ketone and kept in the cold for several days, 12.7 g of a hygroscopic solid is obtained, melting point 69°-71° C. (sintering at 59° C.). Trituration first with 60 ml of boiling acetonitrile, then with 20 ml of boiling ethanol, gives 2.2 g of a solid, melting point 162°-164° C. (sintering at 155° C.). 
     The methyl ethyl ketone, acetonitrile and ethanol filtrates are combined and evaporated to give 21.9 g of a glass-like residue. Since the residue could not be crystallized it was converted to 13.8 g of the oily base (using potassium carbonate and ether extractions). 
     The above base (12.8 g) and 7.7 g of citric acid monohydrate are dissolved in methanol and the solvent removed on a rotary evaporator to give a gummy residue which is rubbed under ether (three times; evaporation repeated each time, finally at 1 mm of Hg). The resulting solid weighs 20.3 g, melting point 77°-79° C. (foaming; sintering at 50° C.). 
     Reprecipitation from 60 ml of methanol by adding the solution portionwise to 1 l. of stirred ether yields 19.3 g of the title compound, melting point 77°-79° C. (sintering at 50° C.).

(sintering at 100° C.). Work-up of the filtrate yields an additional 7.6 g of crude material. The two fractions are combined and crystallized from 150 ml of acetonitrile to give 23.3 g of product, melting point 115°-117° C. (sintering at 111° C.).

The base is dissolved in dichloromethane, treated with 5.8 ml of 5.5 N alcoholic hydrogen chloride, and the solvents evaporated to give a gummy residue which is converted to a brittle solid by rubbing under ether and repeating the evaporation. Trituration with 100 ml of boiling acetone, followed by overnight cooling, yield 6.3 g of solid, melting point 143°-145° C. (sintering at 100° C.). The filtrate is evaporated and the glass-like residue triturated with 30 ml of boiling acetone and cooled to give 1.5 g of a second crop. Following crystallization of the combined crops from 30 ml methanol-60 ml ether, the title compound weighs 5.6 g, melting point 145°-147° C. (sintering at 105° C.).
