Research on compounds with psychotropic activity. IX--Synthesis of 6-p-methoxyphenylpyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepines and evaluation of their affinities for BDZ and GABA receptor subtypes.

6-p-Methoxyphenylpyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepin-7(6H)-one (IV), cis-7-acetoxy-6,7-dihydro-6-p-methoxyphenylpyrrolo[2,1-d] [1,5]benzothiazepine (V) and some significant 7-acyloxy-6-p-methoxyphenylpyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepines (VI a-g) were synthesized and tested in vitro for inhibition of the specific binding of 3H-Flunitrazepam, 3H-PK 11195, 3H-Muscimol and 3H-(-)Baclofen to central and peripheral benzodiazepine, GABA-A and GABA-B receptors, respectively. The compounds (IV), VI a) and (VI c) were active on the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor; in particular (VI a) and (VI c) were very active. The compound (VI g) showed an affinity, even though scanty, for the central benzodiazepine receptor.

[Compounds with psychotropic activity. VIII. Synthesis and sedative activity of various 9-substituted derivatives of 5-phenylpyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5] benzothiazepine and cis-4,5-dihydro-4-hydroxy-5-phenylpyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepine].

Syntheses of 9-chloro-, 9-trifluoromethyl- and 9-methoxy-5- phenylpyrrolo [2,1-d] [1,5] benzothiazepine [II a-c] and of cis-9-chloro- and cis-9-trifluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-4-hydroxy-5- phenylpyrrolo [2,1-d] [1,5] benzothiazepine with the respective acetyl derivatives (III a-d), according to previously restated routes, are described. The sedative activity was tested against the anti-amphetamine activity in the rat. The 1-[5-trifluoromethyl-2-(alpha- hydroxycarbonylbenzyl ) thiophenyl + ++]-pyrrole ( NF34 ) and the pyrrolo [2,1-d] [1,5] benzothiazepine -5-carboxamide ( NF44 ) showed sedative activity similar to that of diazepam.

[Research on a compound with psychotropic activity. V - a new derivative of pyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepin-6,6-dioxide: synthesis and sedative activity].

The following compounds have been synthesized according to a previously tested route, of the 9-chloro-, 9-trifluoromethyl- and 9-methoxy-5-phenylpyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepin-6,6-dioxide (II a-c), 9-chloro- and 9-trifluoromethyl-5-p-nitrophenylpyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepin-6,6-dioxide (II d, e), 5-(4-pyridyl)pyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepin-6,6-dioxide (III) and 5-(3-pyridyl)pyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepin-6,6-dioxide (IVa) with the 9-chloro- and 9-trifluoromethyl- derivatives (IV b, c) are reported. The sedative action in the rat was tested against the motor activity induced by amphetamine. The 9-chloro-5(3-pyridyl)pyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepin-6,6-dioxide was particularly active and showed sedative action superior to that of diazepam. Marked sedative activity was observed with 9-methoxy-5-phenylpyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepin-6,6-dioxide (NF19) and 9-chloro-5-p-nitrophenylpyrrolo[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepin-6,6-dioxide (NF20).

[Relation between a rapid polyvalent test and single antistreptococcal tests].

ASO and Streptozyme tests have been comparatively tried on 11,200 sera. The former detected 11.96% positive and the latter 13.5%. The difference was due to a greater sensitivity of the Streptozyme test since the most of the Streptozyme positive and ASO negative sera resulted positive in one or more of the single antistreptococcal tests (SK, ADN, SJ, DNA). Only few of the sera which give rise to a positive Streptozyme reaction were otherwise negative and the positive result could be considered aspecific.
