Non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts thereof; and, when R.sub.3 and/or R.sub.4 are hydroxyl, non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof formed with an inorganic or organic base.
The terms "lower alkyl" and "lower alkoxy", as used herein, are intended to designate alkyl and alkoxy radicals of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and those of 1 to 2 carbon atoms are preferred.
A preferred sub-genus thereunder is constituted by compounds of the formula ##STR3## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen, a fused benzene ring, tetrazol-5-yl or --COR.sub.3,
where R.sub.3 is hydroxyl, hydroxyamino or tetrazol-5-yl-amino, and
R.sub.2 is hydrogen, a fused benzene ring, tetrazol-5-yl or --COR.sub.4,
where R.sub.4 is hydroxyl, hydroxyamino or tetrazol-5-yl-amino;
non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts thereof; and, when R.sub.3 and/or R.sub.4 are hydroxyl, non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof formed with an inorganic or organic base.
Finally, an expecially preferred sub-genus thereunder is constituted by compounds of the formula ##STR4## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have the meanings defined in conjunction with formula Ia above; non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts thereof; and, when R.sub.3 and/or R.sub.4 are hydroxyl, non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof formed with an inorganic or organic base.
The compounds embraced by formula I may be prepared by various methods involving known chemical synthesis principles, among which the following are preferred:
Method A
For the preparation of a compound of the formula I in which R.sub.1 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, acetylamino, carboxyl, tetrazol-5-yl or a fused benzene ring, and R.sub.2 is carboxyl, tetrazol-5-yl or, when R.sub.1 is carboxyl or tetrazol-5-yl, also lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, acetyl-amino or a fused benzene ring, by reacting a compound of the formula ##STR5## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, acetylamino, carboxyl, tetrazol-5-yl or a fused benzene ring,
A is --CH.dbd.CH--, --CH.dbd.N-- or --S--, and
X is halogen, preferably fluorine, chlorine or bromine,
with a compound of the formula ##STR6## wherein R.sub.2 is carboxyl, tetrazol-5-yl or, when R.sub.1 in formula II is carboxyl or tetrazol-5-yl, also lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, acetylamino or a fused benzene ring, and
Y is lower alkoxy, at elevated temperatures, preferably in the range of about 120.degree. to 160.degree. C. The reaction may be carried out in the absence of a solvent or also in a high-boiling-point solvent, such as dimethylformamide or sulfolane, and advantageously in the presence of an acid acceptor. An excess of the reactant of the formula III may serve as an acid acceptor.
The starting compounds of the formulas II and III are known compounds and can be obtained by conventional methods.
Method B
For the preparation of a compound of the formula I in which A is --CH.dbd.CH-- or --CH.dbd.N--, R.sub.1 is hydrogen, lower alkoxy or carboxyl, and R.sub.2 is carboxyl or, when R.sub.1 is carboxyl, also lower alkoxy, by oxidizing a compound of the formula ##STR7## wherein A is --CH.dbd.CH-- or --CH.dbd.N--,
R.sub.1 is hydrogen, lower alkoxy or carboxyl,
R.sub.2 is carboxyl or, when R.sub.1 is carboxyl, also lower alkoxy, and
Z is acyl, especially lower alkanoyl,
with a strong oxidizing agent at elevated temperatures, followed by acidification of the reaction mixture. For example, the oxidation can be effected with an aqueous solution of potassium permanganate buffered with magnesium sulfate. Examples of acids which can be used for subsequent acidification are mineral acids, such as hydrochloric acid, or also organic acids, such as acetic acid.
The starting compounds of the formula IV can be prepared by conventional methods. If R.sub.1 and/or R.sub.2 in formula IV are carboxyl, this substituent can also be formed in situ from the corresponding methyl-substituted compound or from other correspondingly substituted compound which are converted into the carboxyl-substituted compounds under the reaction conditions.
Method C
By converting substituents Q and/or R in a compound of the formula ##STR8## wherein Q has the meanings defined for R.sub.1 in formula I or is a precursor thereof, and
R has the meanings defined for R.sub.2 in formula I or is a precursor thereof,
provided at least one of Q and R is a precursor of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, respectively, into R.sub.1 and/or R.sub.2.
The conversion can be effected by conventional methods. For example, amides, esters and hydroxamic acids can be obtained from the corresponding carboxylic acid chlorides by reaction with ammonia or aminotetrazole, with a corresponding lower alkanol or with hydroxylamine, respectively; the tetrazol-5-yl-substituted compounds can be obtained by reacting the corresponding nitriles with sodium azide; the cyano-substituted compounds can be obtained from the corresponding carbamoyl-substituted compounds; the carboxyl-substituted compounds can be obtained by hydrolysis of the corresponding esters or amides, or also by oxidation of the corresponding methyl-substituted compounds with potassium permanganate, for instance; and the amino-substituted compounds can be obtained by acid or alkaline hydrolysis of the corresponding acylamino-substituted compounds.
The starting compounds of the formula V may be prepared either by methods A or B, or by other known methods.
The end products of the formula I obtained by methods A - C form acid addition salts with inorganic or organic acids or, when they contain free carboxyl groups, also salts with inorganic or organic bases. These salts may be prepared by conventional methods. Conversely, if a salt of a compound of the formula I is obtained as the end product, the corresponding free base or acid of the formula I may be liberated therefrom by conventional methods.
The following examples illustrate the present invention and will enable others skilled in the art to understand it more completely. It should be understood, however, that the invention is not limited solely to the particular examples given below.

Then, the reaction mixture was diluted with water, cooled and suctionfiltered. The filter cake thus obtained was purified by dissolving it in a soda solution, re-precipitating it with glacial acetic acid, collecting it by suction filtration, and washing with acetonitrile and ether. The hydrate of the formula ##STR27## was obtained.

The compounds of this invention, that is, those embraced by formula I above and salts thereof formed with acids or bases, have useful pharmacodynamic properties. More particularly, they exhibit primarily antiallergic activity, but also muscle-relaxing (bronchodilating) and vasodilating activities in warm-blooded animals, such as rats. The compounds are therefore useful for prophylaxis and treatment of various allergic disorders, such as asthma, hay fever, conjunctivitis, urticaria, eczema, atopic dermatitis and the like. When used for the prophylaxis of asthma, their most important utility, the principal advantage of the compounds of the present invention resides in their long duration of effective action and their peroral efficacy.
For pharmaceutical purposes the compounds of the present invention are administered to warm-blooded animals topically perorally, parenterally or by the pulmonary route as active ingredients in customary dosage unit compositions, that is, compositions in dosage unit form consisting essentially of an inert pharmaceutical carrier and one effective dosage unit of the active ingredient, such as tablets, coated pills, capsules, wafers, powders, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, syrups, cremes, ointments, lotions, sprays and the like. The effective dosage depends upon the route of administration and the particular indication. For example, for administration by the pulmonary route the effective dosage range is about 20 to 500 .mu.gm/kg body weight; for parenteral administration it is about 0.2 to 10 mgm/kg body weight; for oral administration it is about 1 to 50 mgm/kg body weight; and for nasal or ocular administration it is about 0.5 to 25 mgm/kg body weight.
The following examples illustrate a few pharmaceutical dosage unit compositions comprising a compound of the present invention as an active ingredient and represent the best modes contemplated of putting the invention into practical use. The part are parts by weight unless otherwise specified.
