Jones, E. S, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,405,177 and 3,541,152, discloses hexahalohydroxyisopropyl aromatic amines useful as intermediates in the preparation of azo dyestuffs, polyesters, polyamides, insecticides, plasticizers, and pharmaceuticals.
Gilbert, E. E., in U.S. Pat. No. 3,532,753, discloses aromatic amino derivatives of hexahaloacetone useful as insecticides.
German OS No. 2,552,993 discloses compounds containing a ureido or isoureido function which have utility as antihypertensive agents.
Myer, H., et al., in U.S. Pat. No. 3,907,807, discloses benzoquinolizine antihypertensive agents; the following compound is exemplary: ##STR1##
Many current antihypertensive agents produce unwanted side effects because of their undesirable mechanism of action. For example, guanethidine is an adrenergic neurone blocker, mecamylamine is a ganglion blocker, phenoxybenzamine is an .alpha.-adrenergic receptor blocker, and reserpine is a catecholamine depletor. Each of these mechanisms of action is undesirable because of the serious side effects produced. The compounds of this invention appear to lower blood pressure by a desirable mechanism of action - direct peripheral vasodilation - and, therefore have a distinct advantage over the above undesirable acting antihypertensive agents.
Furthermore, these compounds do not appear to produce central nervous system effects such as those seen with clonidine and .alpha.-methyldopa administration.

The following compounds are specifically preferred: 2,3-dihydro-9-[2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl]-7-methy l-1H,5H-benzo[ij]quinolizin-5-one; 2,3-dihydro-3,7-dimethyl-9-[2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)e thyl]-1H,5H-benzo[ij]quinolizin-5-one; 2,3-dihydro-7-ethyl-9-[2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl] -1H,5H-benzo[ij]quinolizin-5-one; 1,2-dihydro-8-[2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl]-6-methy l-4-H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-4-one; 1,2-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-8-[2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)e thyl-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-4-one; 1,2-dihydro-6-ethyl-8-[2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl] -4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-4-one; 1,2-dihydro-8-[2,2-difluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl]-6-methyl-4 -H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-4-one; 1,2-dihydro-8-[2-chloro-2,2-difluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl]-6 -methyl-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-4-one; and 1,2-dihydro-8-[2,2-difluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(difluoromethyl)ethyl]-6-methyl-4H -pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-4-one.
Acyl Derivatives
Acyl derivatives of the hydroxy function of the compounds of this invention show excellent antihypertensive activity. The acyl derivatives (i.e., where R.sub.5 is not hydrogen or alkyl) are hydrolyzed easily to the parent hydroxy compound (R.sub.5 =H), and it is believed that their antihypertensive effect is due to a facile in vivo hydrolysis. Acylation can be used to give derivatives with a variety of different physical properties, but with little difference in biological properties from the parent hydroxy compound. It is concluded, therefore, that the range of acyl groups is practically unlimited and not critical for antihypertensive activity. Among the acyl groups that can be used are alkanoyl, alkenoyl, and aroyl.
Synthesis
Hexafluorohydroxyisopropyl amine precursors are prepared in the following manner:
When R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen or alkyl of 1-4 carbon atoms and Ra and Rb are both CF.sub.3, the precursors are prepared as shown in the following reaction scheme: ##STR8##
This reaction is described by Sheppard, W. A., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 87, 2410 (1965). A mixture of the appropriate aniline derivative, anhydrous aluminum chloride, and hexafluoroacetone is heated until the reaction is completed. The product is triturated with chloroform and cooled; then filtered off and recrystallized.
Precursors in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are joined together and Ra and Rb are both CF.sub.3 are prepared as shown in the following reaction scheme, which is more fully discussed in applicant's concurrently filed application Ser. No. 836,266, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,129,890, issued Dec. 12, 1978, which is a continuation-in-part of Ser. No. 793,712 filed May 6, 1977 now abandoned; which in turn is a continuation-in-part of Ser. No. 699,588, filed June 24, 1976, now abandoned, which claims these compounds. ##STR9##
The reaction is conducted in a sealed pressure reactor at temperatures from 80.degree.-200.degree. C; it can also be conducted in a refluxing solvent, such as benzene or toluene, in a flask with hexafluoroacetone monohydrate, sesquihydrate, or trihydrate. Acidic catalysts such as AlCl.sub.3, BF.sub.3, or p-toluenesulfonic acid can be used but are not necessary. Reaction time is usually 4-12 hours. A temperature of 100.degree.-120.degree. C. and used of 1-5 mole percent of AlCl.sub.3 are preferred.
A modified method for preparing these precursors (and those in which Ra and Rb are as defined) which produces higher yields for many of the compounds, especially the indolines, involves attaching a suitable protective group, such as benzyl, substituted benzyl, or benzhydryl at the basic nitrogen atom of the amine starting material, then contacting this protected compound with hexafluoroacetone, pentafluoroacetone, chloropentafluoroacetone, 1,1,3,3-tetrafluoroacetone, 1,3-dichlorotetrafluoroacetone, or 1-chloro-1,1,3,3-tetrafluoroacetone. The following diagram shows, in a general way, this reaction scheme illustrated by initial reaction of a benzyl halide followed by reaction of a protected compound with hexafluoroacetone. ##STR10## where X=Cl or Br;
R.sub.13 =H, F, Cl, Br, NO.sub.2, phenyl, or CH.sub.3 ;
n=2, 3, or 4.
Starting amine (A) is treated with a benzyl halide to give a tertiary N-benzylamine (A.sup.1). This is heated with hexafluoroacetone to give the adduct A.sup.2, which is then hydrogenated to remove the benzyl group to give the desired compound (C). In a similar reaction procedure, the benzyl halide can be replaced by benzhydryl chloride or bromide in formation of a protected compound. The protected compound (including adduct A.sup.1 above) can be allowed to react with either hexafluoroacetone, pentafluoroacetone, chloropentafluoroacetone, or 1,1,3,3-tetrafluoroacetone, followed by hydrogenation. The benzhydryl protecting group is especially advantageous when 1,3-dichlorotetrafluoroacetone or 1-chloro-1,1,3,3-tetrafluoroacetone are used.
The hydrogenation step occasionally requires excess acid as a co-catalyst. Hydrogenolysis is attempted without addition of acid, and if little or no uptake of hydrogen is observed, acid is added (for example, concentrated hydrochloric acid), and the reaction is allowed to proceed.
The amine starting materials are either known in the art or easily prepared from those known in the art. Methods of making the various ring systems, however, are outlined as follows: ##STR11##
Tin and hydrochloric acid or zinc and hydrochloric acid can also be used as reducing agents.

See Elderfield, R. C., Heterocyclic Compounds Vol. 4, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. New. York. N.Y. (1952) p.1. ##STR13##
In the reaction scheme outlined 3,4-dihydro-1-(2H)-naphthalenone is contacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride to give the corresponding oxime.
The oxime is rearranged by treatment with polyphosphoric acid to give the lactam 1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-1-benzazepin-2-one.
Reduction of the lactam with LiAlH.sub.4 gives 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-1-benzazepine.
The ketone starting materials for the parent systems discussed above are known in the art and are commercially available.
Intermediate amides (E) are prepared as shown in the following reaction: ##STR14## where R.sub.1, R.sub.2, and R.sub.4 are as previously defined, R'.sub.3 is hydrogen or CH.sub.3, and R is an alkyl group of 1-5 carbons.
The amide (E) is prepared by heating equimolar amounts of amine (C) and 3-ketoester (D) in an oil bath. Th preferred temperature range is about 180.degree.-220.degree. C. Alternatively, the reactants can be refluxed together in a high-boiling solvent, for example, xylene.
The reaction can be conveniently followed by periodically removing a test portion and performing thin layer chromatography. When no further reaction is observed, the amide (E) is isolated by crystallization and/or chromatography. Occasionally, purification is difficult and, therefore, cyclization of the crude amide is more convenient.
When R'.sub.3 =H and R.sub.4 =CH.sub.3 the amides (E) are prepared more conveniently and in better yield using diketene instead of the 3-ketoester (D). An equimolar amount of diketene is added to amine (C) dissolved in an inert solvent (for example, anhydrous tetrahydrofuran or toluene) held at 0.degree. C. or room temperature. If the reaction is slow (as indicated by thin layer chromatography), the mixture is heated until no further reaction is observed. The crude product is often satisfactory for cyclization in sulfuric acid, but it can be purified by recrystallization and/or chromatography.
The final products are readily prepared as shown in the following cyclization reaction: ##STR15##
Cyclization is accomplished by heating the amide (E) in a condensing agent, such as sulfuric acid or polyphosphoric acid. Usually, heating in concentrated sulfuric acid on a steam bath for about 30-60 minutes completes the reaction, but occasionally higher heating (up to 120.degree. C.) for a longer time (up to 24 hours) is necessary. Completion of the reaction can be conveniently checked by removing a small test sample, isolating the solids, and analyzing by thin layer chromatography. The product (F) is isolated by pouring the sulfuric acid solution into excess ice water, removing the precipitate by filtration, washing, and drying. Further purification, if necessary, can be done by recrystallization and/or chromatography.
When R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are alkyl in FIG. E, cyclization is not observed. Compounds described by FIG. F where R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are alkyl can be prepared by cyclization of the amide E where R.sub.1 is alkyl and R.sub.2 is H. The product F has R.sub.1 =alkyl and R.sub.2 =H. When the product F is treated with R'.sub.5 X, (R'.sub.5 =alkyl of 1-6 carbons or ##STR16## where R.sub.13 =H, F, Cl, Br, NO.sub.2, phenyl, or CH.sub.3 ; X=halogen), an alkyl halide such as methyl iodide or aralkyl halide such as benzylbromide, in a solvent such as dimethylformamide with a base such as potassium carbonate, or sodium hydride, the oxygen-alkylated compound F.sub.1 is obtained. ##STR17##
The compound F.sub.1 may then be alkylated on nitrogen by use of base such as sodium hydride or thallium ethoxide in a solvent such as DMF with an alkyl halide or sulfate, R'.sub.2 X, (R'.sub.2 =--CH.sub.3 or --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.3, X=halogen or sulfate) to give F.sub.2. ##STR18##
The alkyl or aralkyl group R'.sub.5 on compound F.sub.2 may be removed by an appropriate reaction such as hydrolysis with aqueous hydrobromic acid or hydrogenolysis to give compound F.sub.3, where R.sub.1 and R'.sub.2 are alkyl. ##STR19##
Compounds of formula I where R.sub.3 is other than hydrogen or methyl are preferably prepared from F (R'.sub.3 =hydrogen) by well-known electrophilic substitution reactions, e.g., chlorination, bromination, and nitration. The NO.sub.2 compound can be reduced to the NH.sub.2 compound, which is in turn useful for preparing compounds where R.sub.3 =fluorine or OH.
To make compounds where R.sub.4 is hydrogen the process is modified by using malonyl dichloride instead of ketoester (D). The resulting half-amide chloride of malonic acid (E, where R.sub.4 =Cl) is then cyclized with a suitable condensing agent, for example, phosphorous oxychloride, to give G, which can be hydrogenolytically cleaved to H. ##STR20##
Alternatively, ethyl malonyl chloride can be used instead of ketoester (D) to give the half-amide ester of malonic acid (E, where R.sub.4 =OC.sub.2 H.sub.5) which is cyclized with a condensing agent, for example, sulfuric acid, to give F where R.sub.4 is OH. This is then treated with phosphorous pentachloride in phosphorous oxychloride solution to give G, which is converted to H as shown above.
Esters are prepared from F by reaction with acid chlorides or anhydrides with or without solvents. Because of the tertiary nature and high acidity of the alcohol group, esterification is rather slow at room temperature but can be greatly accelerated by using high boiling solvents (with or without the addition of a base) or using refluxing pyridine as a solvent and base.
Ethers are prepared from F by converting it to a salt by treating with a suitable base (for example, potassium tert-butoxide), then O-alkylating the salt by heating with a dialkyl sulfate or alkyl halide.

The mixture is refluxed for 30-40 minutes, cooled and evaporated. The residue is triturated with 150 ml of dibutyl ether to give crystals.

The mixture is allowed to cool and is evaporated. The residue is triturated with a mixture of toluene, ethyl acetate, and hexane (60:10:30). The insoluble portion is filtered off, washed with water, and dried to give 1.6 g (23%) of .alpha.,.alpha.-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1-(1,3-dioxobutyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro -6-quinolinemethanol. C.

C., and poured into ice. When the ice is melted, the precipitate is filtered off, washed with water, and dried. The solid is recrystallized from 2-ethoxyethanol to give 7.2 g (74% ) of 2,3-dihydro-9-[2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl]-7-methy l-1H,5H-benzo[ij]quinolizin-5-one, m.p. 295.degree.-296.degree..

EXAMPLE 2 ##STR22##
A stirred mixture of 23.5 g (0.075 mole) of .alpha.,.alpha.-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-methyl-6-quinoli nemethanol, 100 ml of dry toluene, and 8.3 g (0.099 mole) of diketene is refluxed for 16 hours under dry nitrogen. The toluene is evaporated. The residue, which is crude .alpha.,.alpha.-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1-(1,3-dioxobutyl)-1,2,-3,4-tetrahydr o-2-methyl-6-quinolinemethanol, is dissolved in 100 ml of concentrated sulfuric acid and is heated on a steam bath for one hour. The solution is poured into ice water. When the ice is melted, the insoluble material is extracted with ether. The ether solution is dried and evaporated to give 26.8 g of residue. Trituration of the residue with a mixture of toluene, hexane, and ethyl acetate (60:30:10) induces crystals to separate. The crystals are filtered off, and two recrystallizations from toluene and ethyl acetate mixture (9:1) gives 10.0 g (35%) of crystals of 2,3-dihydro-3,7-dimethyl-9-[2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-(trifluoromethyl)e thyl]-1H,5H-benzo-[ij]quinolizin-5-one, m.p. 195.degree.-198.degree..

Dosage Forms
The antihypertensive agents of this invention can be administered to treat hypertension by any means that produces contact of the active agent with the agent's site of action in the body of a mammal. They can be administered by any conventional means available for use in conjunction with pharmaceuticals; either as individual therapeutic agents or in a combination of therapeutic agents. They can be administered, alone, but are generally administered with a pharmaceutical carrier selected on the basis of the chosen route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice.
The dosage administered will, of course, vary depending upon known factors such as the pharmacodynamic characteristics of the particular agent, and its mode and route of administration; age, health, and weight of the recipient; nature and extent of symptoms, kind of concurrent treatment, frequency of treatment, and the effect desired. Usually a daily dosage of active ingredient can be about 0.01 to 50 milligrams per kilogram of body weight. Ordinarily 0.05 to 40, and preferably 0.2 to 20, milligrams per kilogram per day given in divided doses 2 to 4 time a day or in sustained release form is effective to obtain desired results. For the more potent compounds the daily dosage ranges are 0.01 to 10 milligrams per kilogram, preferably 0.05 to 10 milligrams per kilogram, and more preferably 0.05 to 5 milligrams per kilogram.
Dosage forms (compositions) suitable for internal administration contain from about 1.0 milligrams to about 100 milligrams of active ingredient per unit. In these pharmaceutical compositions the active ingredient will ordinarily be present in an amount of about 0.5-95% by weight based on the total weight of the composition.
The active ingredient can be administered orally in solid dosage forms, such as capsules, tablets, and powders, or in liquid dosage forms, such as elixirs, syrups, and suspensions; it can also be administered parenterally, in sterile liquid dosage forms.
Gelatin capsules contain the active ingredient and powdered carriers, such as lactose, sucrose, mannitol, starch, cellulose derivatives, magnesium stearate, stearic acid, and the like. Similar diluents can be used to make compressed tablets. Both tablets and capsules can be manufactured as sustained release products to provide for continuous release of medication over a period of hours. Compressed tablets can be sugar coated or film coated to mask any unpleasant taste and protect the tablet from the atmosphere, or enteric coated for selective disintegration in the gastrointestinal tract.
Liquid dosage forms for oral administration can contain coloring and flavoring to increase patient acceptance.
Suitable pharmaceutical carriers are described in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, E. W. Martin, a standard reference text in this field.
Useful pharmaceutical dosage-forms for administration of the compounds of this invention can be illustrated as follows:
CAPSULES
A large number of unit capsules are prepared by filling standard two-piece hard gelatin capsules each with 5 milligrams of powdered active ingredient, 150 milligrams of lactose, 32 milligrams of talc, and 8 milligrams magnesium stearate.
CAPSULES
A mixture of active ingredient in soybean oil is prepared and injected by means of a positive displacement pump into gelatin to form soft gelatin capsules containing 2 milligrams of the active ingredient. The capsules are washed in petroleum ether and dried.
TABLETS
A large number of tablets are prepared by conventional procedures so that the dosage unit is 15 milligrams of active ingredient, 7 milligrams of ethyl cellulose, 0.2 milligrams of colloidal silicon dioxide, 7 milligrams of magnesium stearate, 11 milligrams of microcrystalline cellulose, 11 milligrams of cornstarch and 98.8 milligrams of lactose. Appropriate coatings may be applied to increase palatability or delay absorption.
SUSPENSION
An aqueous suspension is prepared for oral administration so that each 5 milliliters contain 10 milligrams of finely divided active ingredient, 500 milligrams of acacia, 5 milligrams of sodium benzoate, 1.0 grams of sorbitol solution, U.S.P., 5 milligrams of sodium saccharin, and 0.025 milliliters of vanilla tincture.
UTILITY
The antihypertensive activity of the compounds of this series is detected with a procedure using DOCA hypertensive rats, which have been shown to be a good predictor of human efficacy.
Rats are made hypertensive by subcutaneous implantation of pellets of desoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) and by giving saline solution to drink essentially according to the method described by Sturtevant [Annals of Internal Medicine, 49, 1281 (1958)]. Graded dose levels of each compound are administered orally to groups of 8 hypertensive rats. The compound is prepared in an aqueous polyvinyl alcohol/acacia vehicle and administered at a volume to body weight ratio of 5.0 ml/kg. Sixteen hypertensive rats receiving the aqueous vehicle by the same route serve as controls for each test. At various intervals of time after treatment, usually 90 minutes, the systolic arterial blood pressure of each rat is determined by a modification of the microphone-manometer technique [Friedman, M. and Freed, S. C., Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol, and Med., 70, 670 (1949)]. That dose of compound which produces a 30 mm mercury (mm Hg) reduction in blood pressure when compared to the mean systolic arterial blood pressure of the control animals is then determined (Effective Dose 30).
When testing by this procedure, the following ED.sub.30 dosages were determined.
In the above examples, all parts are by weight and temperatures are in degrees centigrade unless otherwise indicated.
