Reduction of N-(2-chloro-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-10-yl)formamide with lithium aluminium hydride resulted in the methylamino compound IV. The dimethylamino compound V was obtained by methylation of 10-amino-2-chloro-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepin with formic acid and aqueous formaldehyde. Substitution reactions of 2,10-dichloro-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepin with a series of primary and secondary amines afforded the title compounds VI to XXVIII. The bases were transformed to salts and pharmacologically tested. Only the pyrrolidino compound IX (hydrogen succinate VÚFB-15 551) showed a clear pharmacological profile of a potential antidepressant.

The non-characterized bromo derivative Ia, obtained by bromination of 4-cyclopentylacetophenone, afforded by substitution reactions with diethylamine, benzylmethylamine, benzylisopropylamine, piperidine, morpholine, 1-methylpiperazine and 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine the amino ketones IIa-VIIIa which were reduced with lithium aluminium hydride to the aminoalcohols IIb-VIIIb. Compounds IIIb and IVb were debenzylated by catalytic hydrogenation on palladium to the secondary amines IXb and Xb. The compounds prepared have central stimulant effects in higher doses which appears also in the rotarod test and in the evaluation of spontaneous motility. They have mostly a mild spasmolytic effect of the anticholinergic type, some of them bring about local anesthetic and diuretic effects. The adrenolytic and hypotensive effects were found only with single compounds.

N-formylation of primary and secondary amines was carried out with formic acid in the presence of silica sulfuric acid under solvent-free conditions to give the corresponding formamides in excellent yield and short reaction times.

Using the Curtius reaction, the acids VIa and VIv were transformed to the carbamates IVa and IVb which afforded by alkaline hydrolysis the primary amines Ia and Ib. The N-methyl derivatives IIab were obtained by reduction of the carbamates IVa with lithium aluminium hydride. The N,N-dimethyl derivatives IIIab resulted by methylation of the primary amines Iab with formaldehyde and formic acid. The synthesis of the acid VIb was carried out from phthalide and 2-methoxythiophenol in seven steps. The amines Iab-IIIab showed clear thymoleptic properties in the test of reserpine ptosis in mice and by inhibition of the perphenazine catalepsy in rats. The acid VIb has antiinflammatory activity.

Reactions of 2-(phenylthio)benzyl chloride with dimethylamine, diethylamine, pyrrolidine, piperidine, morpholine, and 1-methylpiperazine afforded the title compounds VI-XI. Reaction of 2-(phenylthio)benzaldehyde with nitromethane gave the nitrostyrene XIV which was reduced with lithium aluminium hydride to 2-(2-(phenylthio)phenyl)ethylamine (XVI). This was transformed to the N-methyl and N,N-dimethyl derivatives XVIII and XIX. The Claisen reaction of (2-(phenylthio)phenyl)acetonitrile with ethyl acetate afforded compound XXI which was cleaved by phosphoric acid to (2-(phenylthio)phenyl)acetone (XX). The Leuckart-Wallach reaction afforded the formamide XXIII which was used as starting material for preparing the amines XXIV-XXVI. The alternative approach to these compounds starting by reaction of the aldehyde XII with nitroethane was complicated by the fact that in addition to the nitropropene XV 2-(phenylthio)benzonitrile was also formed. The synthetic use of the inhomogeneous XV resulted then in mixtures of amines XXIV-XXVI with IV-VI which was followed by means of mass and 1H NMR spectra. The amines XXIV-XXVI were oxidized to the sulfoxides XXVII-XXIX. The oily bases were transformed to crystalline salts and spectra of all homogeneous bases were recorded. Pharmacological testing showed the amine VI (VÚFB-15 370) to be a promising potential antidepressant. The amines XI and XXV showed also pharmacological profile of potential antidepressants.

2-(Methoxyphenylthio)benzaldehydes Xa-Xd were reacted with nitroethane in boiling acetic acid to give the corresponding 1-aryl-2-nitropropenes XIIa-XIId; benzonitriles XIIIa and XIIIc and benzaldoximes XXIc and XXId were isolated as by-products. Chromatographed compounds XIIa-XIId were reduced with lithium aluminium hydride to the primary amines VIIa-VIId, and formylated by heating with ethyl formate to the formamides XIVa, XIVc, and XIVd. Reduction of the formamides with lithium aluminium hydride afforded the secondary amines VIIIa, VIIIc, and VIIId, and methylation of the primary amines with formic acid and formaldehyde gave the tertiary amines IXa, IXc, and IXd. Compound VIIIa was prepared also by an alternative route starting from the nitrile XIIIa and proceeding via XIXa and XIVa. Some of the methoxylated amines were demethylated either by heating with pyridine hydrochloride or by treatment with boron tribromide to the title compounds IVa, IVc, Vc, Vd, VIa, and VIc. The amines prepared were transformed to salts for characterization and for pharmacological testing. Compound VIIIa (hydrogen oxalate V⁄FB-15 475) showed clearly the character of a potential antidepressant.

The isofloxythepin (I) metabolite IV was synthesized via the acids IX and XI and the esters X and XII. The enamine VIII was prepared from 3-fluoro-8-(2-propyl)dibenzo[b,f]thiepin-10(11H)-one by two methods and was reduced to I. Cloflumide (II) was obtained by reaction of 2,10-dichloro-7-fluoro-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepin with 3-(1-piperazinyl)propionamide and was oxidized to the sulfoxide XVI. The unsaturated analogue XVII of clopithepin (III) was prepared from 2-chlorodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-10(11H)-one by reaction with 2-bromoethanol in the presence of 4-toluenesulfonic acid in boiling benzene and by the following substitution reaction with 2-(1-piperazinyl)ethanol. An improved synthesis of 6-methyldibenzo[b,f]thiepin-10(11H)-one (XIX) was elaborated. The acid XXVII was synthesized and cyclized with polyphosphate ester. A mixture of compounds was formed from which the ketone XXXVI was isolated and processed by reaction with formamide and formic acid at 200 °C. One of the products was characterized as the formamide XXXIII and was reduced with lithium aluminium hydride to a basic product supposed to be XXXIV. A series of by-products was isolated and characterized. The enamine VIII (V⁄FB-17 156) was found to be a strong neuroleptic agent, similar to isofloxythepin (I). The enol ether XVII (V⁄FB-17 733) was characterized as a mild, practically noncataleptic neuroleptic agent.
