(wherein Rl, R2, R4, Xl, X~ and A are as hereinbefore defined, Z
represents a single bond, an oxygen atom or a methylene or 1,2-ethylene group, R3' represents a C14 alkyl group or a hydrogen atom, and R7 represents a hydrogen atom)), hydrogenolysing a compound of formula Ib wherein R7 represents a chlorine atom;

td) converting a compound of formula I into an acid addition salt thereof or converting an acid addition salt of a compound of formula 1 into a free base or another salt, e.g. a pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salt;
(e) separating a compound of formula I into the enantiomers and/or diastereomers thereof.

The amination of step (a) is conveniently carried out in an inert solvent, at temperatures of between -10C and the boiling temperature of the solvent, preferably either with at least 2 moles of a secondary amine of formula III per mole of the haloacyl compound of formula II or with 1 to 2 moles of a secondary amine of formula III and an auxiliary base. Examples of suitable solvents include chlorinatad hydrocarbons such as methylene chloride, chloroform and dichloroethane; opPn-chained or cyclic ethers such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and dioxan; aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, xylene, chlorobenzene and pyridine;
alcohols such as ethanol and isopropanol; ketones such as acetone; acetonitrile, dimathylformamide and 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone. Examples of auxiliary bases ,, .

14 1 3 2 0 ~ 9 8 include tertiary organic bases such as triethylamine, N-methyl-piperidine, diethylaniline, pyridine and 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine or inorganic bases such as alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonates or hydrogen carbonates, hydroxides or oxides. If necessary, the reaction may be accelerated by the addition of alkali metal iodides. The reaction times will generally range from 15 minutes to 80 hours, depending on the nature and quantity of the amine of formula III used.

The reaction of step (b) of the compound o~ formula IV
with the acid derivative of formula V may be carried out in a conventional manner. The leaving group Nu is conveniently a group which forms a reactive carboxylic acid derivative together with the carbonyl group to which it is bound. Examples of reactive carboxylic acid derivatives include acid halides, esters, anhydrides or mixed anhydrides, such as those formed from salts of the corresponding acids (wherein Nu represents OH) and acid chlorides such as phosphorus oxychloride, diphosphoric acid tetrachloride or chloroformic acid esters or the N-alkyl-2-acyloxypyridinium salts formed when compounds of general formula V (wherein Nu represents OH) are reacted with N-alkyl-2-halopyridinium salts.

The reaction of step (b) is preferably carried out with the mixed anhydrides of strong mineral acids, particularly dichlorophosphoric acid. The reaction is optionally effected in the presence of an acid binding agent (a proton acceptor). Examples of suitable proton acceptors include alkali metal carbonates and hydrogen carbonates such as sodium carbonate and potassium hydrogen carbonate; tertiary oxganic amines such as pyridine, triethylamine, ethyl diisopropylamine, 4-dimethylaminopyridine and sodium hydride.

The reaction of step (b) may conveniently be carried out ~" 15 1320198 at temperatures of between -25C and 130C in an inert solvent. Examples of suitable inert solvents include chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons such as methylene chloride and 1,2-dichloroethane; open-chained or cyclic ethers such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and 1,4-dioxan; aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, xylene or o-dichlorobenzene; polar aprotic solvents such as acetonitrile, dimethylformamide, l,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone and hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide;
or mixtures thereof. The reaction times generally range from 15 minutes to 80 hours, depending on the nature and quantity of the acylating agent of formula V used. It is not necessary to produce the compounds of formula V
in pure form; instead, they can be prepared in situ in the reaction mixture, in a known manner.

The hydrogenolysis of step (c) is conveniently carried out in the presence of catalysts of metals of the VIIIth sub-group of the periodic table, for example palladium on animal charcoal, palladium on barium sulphate, Raney nickel or Raney cobalt, and under hydrogen pressures of from 1 to 300 bar, and at temperatures of from O'C to 130C, in the presence of solvents, for example alcohols such as methanol and ethanol; ethers such as dioxan and tetrahydrofuran; carboxylic acids, e.g. acetic acid; or tertiary amines, for example triethylamine. If the reaction is carried out in the absence of additional hydrogen chloride acceptors, for example sodium carbonate, potassium hydrogen carbonate, triethylamine or sodium acetate, the hydrochlorides of the desired compounds are formed directly and may be isolated after removal of the catalyst by evaporation of the reaction solution. If in the hydrogenolysis reaction the hydrogen is replaced by formic acid, the reaction will in principle be succPssful even under pressureless conditions. In this alternative embodiment, reaction with formic acid in the presence of dimethylformamide as solvent and palladium on charcoal as catalyst at - 16 1 3 2 ~ 1 g8 temperatures of between 70 and 110C, and reduction with triethylammonium formate in the presence of excess triethylamine, and palladium on animal charcoal or palladium acetate and triarylphosphines such as triphenylphosphine, tris-(o-tolyl)-phosphine, tris-(2,5-diisopropylphenyl)-phosphine, at temperatures of between 40 and llO'C, have proved particularly successful.

The compounds of formula I according to the invention contain up to two independently chiral elements, which may include an asymmetric carbon atom in the side chain.
The second chiral element is the acylated tricyclic group itself, which may occur in two mirror-image forms.
It depends on the nature of the tricyclic group whether the energy barrier for ring inversion at this centre is so high that the individual isomers are stable at ambient temperature and capable of isolation. It has baen ~ound that compounds of formula I wherein y,2 is methine group and ~ ~ represents an o-phenylene group always occur in two diastereoisomeric forms which may be separated into the components at ambient temperature.
The individual diastereoisomers are totally stable in the crystalline state but, in solution and at ambient temperature, revert to the original mixture with a half-life of a few days if there are no space-filling substituents in the peri position, such as a chlorine or a methyl group.

In compounds of formula I wherein x2 reprssents a nitrogen atom and ~ ~ represents an o-phenylene group unsubstituted in the peri positions, the activation energy required is so low that at ambient temperature diastereoisomers can no longer be detected (except by complex lH-NMR spectra), let alone preparatively separated.

The compounds of formula I according to the invention thus contain, as a rule, two shiral centres, one of 17 ~32~98 which is not always configurationally stable at ambient temperature. These compounds may therefore occur in t"o diastereoissmeric forms which may in turn be separated into enantiomeric (+) and (-) forms.

The invention includes the individual isomers as well as the mixtures thereof. The diastereomers may be separated on the basis of their different physico-chemical properties, e.gO by fractional recrystallisation from suitable solvents, by high pressure liquid chromatography, column chromatography or gas chromatography.

The separation of any racemates of the compounds of formula I-may be carried out by known methods, for example using an optically active acid such as (~)- or ~ tartaric acid or a derivative thereof such as (+)-or (-)-diacetyltartaric acid, (+)- or (-)-monomethyltartrate or (~)-camphorsulphonic acid.
According to a conventional method of separating isomers, the racemate of a compound of formula I is reacted with one of the optically active acids specified above in equimolar quantities in a solvent and the crystalline diastereoisomeric salts obtained are separated using their different solubilities. This reaction may be carried out in any type of solvent provided that the latter exhibits sufficiently different solubilities ~or the diastereoisomeric salts.
3Q Preferably, methanol, ethanol or mixtures thereof, e.g.
in a 1:1 ratio by volume, are used. Each of the diastereoisomeric salts is then dissolved in water, neutralised with a base such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide and in this way the corresponding free compound is obtained in the (+) or (-) form.

A single enantiomer or a mixture of two optically active diastereoisomeric compounds covered by formula I may 18 1 ~ 2 0 1 9 8 also be obtained by sarrying out the syntheses described above with only one enantiomer of ~ormulz III or V.

The starting materials of formulae II, III, IV and V
needed to synthesise the condensed diazepinones of formula I are known or may be prepared by methods analogous to known methods - see for example US-A-4550107, EP-A-254955 and DE-A-3643666.

The base-substituted condensed diazepinones of general formula I and the physiologically acceptable acid addition salts thereof have valuable properties; in particular, whilst having excellent stability to hydrolysis, high selectivity and good resorption after oral administration, they have favourable effscts on heart rate and in view of their lack of mydriatic effects or inhibitory effects on the secretion of gastric acid or saliva, they are suitable for use as vagal pacemakers in the treatment of bradycardia and bradyarrhythmia in ~uman as well as veterinary medicine.
Some of the compounds also exhibit spasmolytic properties on peripheral organs, particularly the colon and bladder.

A favourable correlation between, on the one hand, tachycardiac effects and, on the other hand, the undesirable effects on pupil size and the secretion of tears, saliva and gastric acid which occur with therapeutic agents having an anticholinergic component, is of particular importance in the therapeutic use of such substances. The following tests show that the compounds according to the invention exhibit surprisingly favourable correlations in this respect.

19 13~0198 A. Studies of bindlng to muscarinic receptors:

In vitro measurement of the IC50 value The organs were donated by male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 180-220 g. After the heart, submandibular gland and cerebral cortex had been removed, all other steps were car-ied out in ice cold Hepes HCl buffer (pH 7.4; 100 millimolar NaC1, 10 millimolar MgC12). The whole heart was cut up with scissors. A11 the organs were then homogenised in a Potter apparatus.

For the binding test the homogenised organs were diluted by volume as follows:

Whole heart l: 40Q
Cerebral cortex 1: 3000 Submandibular gland 1: 400 The homogenised organs were incubated at a certain concentration of the radioligand and at a series of concentrations of the non-radioactive test substances in Eppendorf centrifuge tubes at 30C. Incubation lasted 45 minutes. The radioligand used was 0.3 nanomolar 3H-N-methylscopolamine t3H-NMS). Incubation was ended by the addition of ice cold buffer followed by vacuum filtration. The filters were rinsed with cold buffer and their radioactivity was determined. This represents the sum of specific and non-specific binding of 3H-NMS.
The proportion of non-specific ~inding was defined as the radioactivity which was bound in the presence of l micromolar quinuclidinylbenzylate. Each measurement was taken four times. The IC,o values of the non-labelled test substances were determined graphically. They represent that concentration of test substance at which the specific binding of 3H-NMS to the muscarinic receptors in the various organs was inhibited by 50~.

` 20 ~2~1~8 The results are set forth in Table I.

B._Investiqation of functional selectivity of the antimuscarinic effect S

Substances with antimuscarinic properties inhibit the effects of agonists supplied exogenically or of acetylcholine, which is released from cholinergic nerve endings. The following is a description of some method~
that are suitable for the detection of cardioselective antimuscarinic agents.

"In vivo" methods The objective of the methods was to confirm the selectivity of the antimuscarinic effect. Those substances which had been selec~ed on the basis of "in vitro" tests were tested for their 1. M1/M2 selectivlty in the rat, 2. Salivation-inhibiting effect on the rat and 3. Inhibition of the acetylcholine effect on the bladder, bronchi and heart rate in the guinea pig.

1. M~/M2 selectivity in the rat The method used was described by Hammer and Giachetti (~ife Sciences 31, 2991-2998 (1982)). 5 minutes after the intravenous injaction of increasing doses of the substance, either the right vagus was electrically stimulated (frequency: 25 Hz; pulse width: ~ms; duration of stimulus: 30s; voltage: supramaximal~ or 0.3 mg/kg of McN--A-343 were intravenously injected into male THOM
rats. The bradycardia caused by vagus stimulation and the rise in blood pressure caused by McN-A-343 were ~ 21 ~32~1~8 determined. The dosage of the substances which reduced either the vagal bradycardia (M~) or the rise in blood pressure (Ml) by 50% was determined graphically. The results are set forth in Table II.
2. Salivation-inhibitinq effect in the rat Using the method of Lavy and Mulder (Arch. Int.
Pharmacodyn. 178, 437~445, (1969)) male THOM rats anaesthetised with 1.2 g/kg of urethane were given increasing doses of the substance by i.v. route. The secretion of saliva was initiated by subcutaneous administration of 2 mg/kg of pilocarpine. The saliva was absorbed with blotting paper and the surface area covered was measured every 5 minutes by planimetry. Tne dosage of the substance which reduced the volume of saliva by 50% was determined graphically. The results are set forth in Table II.

3. Inhibition of the effect of acetylcholine on the bladder, bronchi and heart rate in quinea Piqs 5 minutes after the administration of the test substance, 1~ microgram/kg of acetylcholine were simultaneously injected intravenously and intra-arterially into anaesthetised guinea pigs. The heart rate was recorded directly by extracorporeal derivation of the ECG, the expiration resistance according to Konzett-Ro~ler and contraction of the exposed bladder.
In order to determine the inhi~ition of the acetylcholine activity on -the organs under investigation, dosage/activity curves were recorded and from them -log ED50 values were determined. The results are set forth in Table III.
The ollowing compounds, by way of example, were investigated according to the procedures set forth above:

, 22 ~32~98 A = 11-[4-[3-[(diethylamino)~ethyl]-4-morpholinyl]-1-oxobutyl]-5,11-dihydro-6H-pyrido~2,3-b]tl,4]benzo-diazepin-6-one;

and as comparison substances D = 11-[[2-[(diethylamino)methyl]-1-piperidinyl]acetyl]-5,11-dihydro-6H-pyrido~2~3-b]cl~4]ben~odiazepin-6-one (see US-A-4550107), E = 5,11-dihydro-11-~(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)acetyl]-6H-pyrido[2,3~b]~1t4]benzodiazepin-6-one (see US-A-3660380) and F = atropine.

Moreover, the pharmacological data in Table III
above indicate a surprisingly high power of distinction between the heart and smooth muscle.
The above-mentioned substances show a substantially improved effectiveness compared with the known compound D. At the same time, their therapeutically useful selectivity is retained. This results in a reduction in the quantity of drug to be administered to the patient 26 ~3201~8 without increasing the risk of muscarinic side effects.
Furthermore, the compounds prepared according to the invention are well tolerated; even in the hi~hest doses administered, no toxic side effects were observed in the pharmacological trials.

sodium hydride dispersion in paraffin oil was heated in 160 ml of anhydrous dimethylformamide at 50-80C until the development of hydrogen had ceased. 13.20 g 34 i320~98 (0.0625 mol) of 5,11-dihydro-6H-pyrido~2,3-b][1,4]benzo-diazepin-6-one were added to the resulting sodium salt of the above acid and at -lO~C 9.9 g (0.0646 mol) of phosphorus oxychloride were added dropwise within 10 S minutes. The resulting mixture was stirred for 4 hours at -10C, for 4 hours at 0C and ~or 20 hours at ambient temperature. The mixture was stirred into 300 g of ice, adjusted to pH 9 with sodium hydroxide solution and extracted exhaustively with dichloromethane. The combined organic phases were washed once with a little ice water, dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated by evaporation. The oily residue was triturated with a few drops of diisopropyl ether, whereupon crystallisation occurred. The precipitate was suction-filtered and recrystallised from t-butyl methyl ether.
6.55 g (23% of theory) of colourless crystals were obtained, m.p. 108-110C, which were found, according to thin layer chromatography, mixed melting point, IR, W
