Abstract:
2,9-Dihydro-3H-pyrido[3,2-c]-s-triazolo[4,3-a][1,5]-benzodiazepin-3-ones ##SPC1## Wherein R' and R" are alkyl of 1 to 3 carbon atoms, inclusive; or the group ##EQU1## together is pyrrolidino, piperidino, 4-methylpiperazino or [4-(2-hydroxyethyl)]piperazino; wherein R. sub. 2 and R. sub. 3 are hydrogen, chloro, bromo, trifluoromethyl, or alkyl defined as above and wherein R. sub. 4 is hydrogen, alkyl as defined above or ##EQU2## in which n is the integer 2 or 3 or R', R" or ##EQU3## are defined as above, are obtained by reacting a compound of the formula 1 ##SPC2## Wherein R. sub. 2, R. sub. 3, R', R", or ##EQU4## are defined as above, with phosphorus pentasulfide to give the corresponding 5-thione compound (II); treating II with an alkyl carbazate to obtain the compound of formula III: ##SPC3## wherein R. sub. 2, and R. sub. 3 are defined as above and treating III with an alkyl halide of 1 to 3 carbon atoms inclusive, or ##EQU5## in which n, R', R", or ##EQU6## is defined as above, to obtain those compounds of formula IVA in which R. sub. 4 is alkyl or ##EQU7## as defined above.
