ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In U.S. Pat. No. 4,804,663 there are described 1,2-benzisoxazol-3-yl and 1,2-benzisothiazol-3-yl derivatives having antipsychotic and antiserotonin activity. In EP-A-0,378,255 there are described 4-aminopyrimidinone derivatives as antagonists of the neurotransmitters serotonin and histamine. In JP-A-2-63911 there are described benzothiophene- and benzofuranderivatives as 5-HT
2
receptor antagonists useful for treating ischaemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, depression or schizophrenia. The present compounds differ structurally and show a different pharmacological profile.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The invention is concerned with novel compounds of the formula
the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof and the stereochemically isomeric forms thereof, wherein
X is oxygen or sulphur;
R
1
is hydrogen or halo;
R
2
is hydrogen, C
1-4
alkyl, phenylmethyl or halophenylmethyl;
Alk is C
1-4
alkanediyl;
—Z—A— is a bivalent radical selected from the group consisting of —S—CH

wherein in said bivalent radicals one hydrogen may be replaced by C
1-4
alkyl;
R
3
is phenyl or halophenyl; and
each R
4
independently represents hydrogen, hydroxy, phenylmethyl or halophenylmethyl.
In the foregoing and hereinafter C
1-4
alkanediyl defines bivalent straight and branched chain alkanediyl radicals having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as, for example, methylene, 1,2-ethanediyl, 1,3-propanediyl, 1,4-butanediyl and the branched isomers thereof; halo is generic to fluoro, chloro, bromo and iodo; C
1-4
alkyl defines straight and branch chained saturated hydrocarbon radicals having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as, for example, methyl, ethyl, propyl, 1-methylethyl, butyl, 1,1-dimethylethyl, 1-methyl-propyl, 2-methylpropyl and the like; and halophenylmethyl defines fluorophenylmethyl, chlorophenylmethyl, bromophenylmethyl, iodophenylmethyl and the like.
The term “stereochemically isomeric forms” as used hereinbefore defines all the possible isomeric forms which the compounds of formula (I) may possess. Unless otherwise mentioned or indicated, the chemical designation of compounds denotes the mixture of all possible stereochemically isomeric forms, said mixtures containing all diastereomers and enantiomers of the basic molecular structure. More in particular, stereogenic centers may have either the R- or the S-configuration; substituents on bivalent cyclic saturated hydrocarbon radicals may have either the cis- or trans-configuration and radicals or moieties containing double bonds may have the E- or Z-configuration. Stereochemically isomeric forms of the compounds of formula (I) are obviously intended to be embraced within the scope of this invention.
The pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts as mentioned hereinabove are meant to comprise the therapeutically active non-toxic acid addition salt forms which the compounds of formula (I) are able to form. The latter can conveniently be obtained by treating the base form with appropriate acids such as, for example, inorganic acids, such as hydrohalic acid, e.g. hydrochloric, hydrobromic acid and the like, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid and the like; or organic acids such as, for example, acetic, hydroxyacetic, propanoic, 2-hydroxypropanoic, 2-oxopropanoic, ethanedioic, propanedioic, butanedioic, (Z)-2-butenedioic, (E)-2-butenedioic, 2-hydroxybutanedioic, 2,3-dihydroxybutanedioic, 2-hydroxy-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylic, methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, 4-methylbenzenesulfonic, cyclohexanesulfamic, 2-hydroxybenzoic, 4-amino-2-hydroxybenzoic and the like acids. Conversely the salt form can be converted by treatment with alkali into the free base form. The term acid addition salt also comprises the hydrates and solvent addition forms which the compounds of formula (I) are able to form. Examples of such forms are e.g. hydrates, alcoholates and the like.
