(en)United States Patent METHOD OF MANUFACTURING PHARMACODY- NAMICALLY EFFECTIVE BASIC ESTERS 0F ALKOXY SUBSTITUTED MONO- AND DIPHEN- YL CARBAMIC ACIDS Ales Sekera, Karel Palat, Alois Borovansky, and lawslav Sova, Brno, Czechoslovakia, assignors to Spafa, spojene farmaceuticke zavody, uarodni podnik, Prague,
- Czechoslovakia v No Drawin Application May 31, 1957 Serial No. 662,575 Claims priority, application Czechoslovakia June 11, 1956 9 Claims. (Cl. 260-472) The local anesthetic action of basic esters of N,N-disubstituted carbamic acids was first published by K. Fromherz in Archiv fiir experimentale Pathologie und Pharmakologie, 76, 257, 1914; German Patent No. 272,529. These substances caused no particular sensation because of their comparatively low activity.
ilt has now been found that it is possible to obtain by appropriate substitution in compounds of this series a very high local anesthetic activity. The alkoxy derivatives of diphenyl carbamic acid esters with lower aliphatic amino alcohols particularly surpass the compounds known hitherto very greatly in both surface and infiltration anesthesia. Moreover, they are considerably less toxic and more tolerable in local application than known and commonly used anesthetics such as cocaine and novocaine. In addition, some of the new compounds of this series seem to possess a high degree of spasmolytic effectiveness.
The object of the present invention is a method of making the new compounds, which may be defined by the general formula OO.RaN
s wherein R signifies an alkoxy radical, R analkoxy radical or a hydrogen atom, R, an open or branched aliphatic chain with at most six carbon atoms; R, and R are either hydrogen atoms or alkyl groups, which may be alsomutually joined to form a heterocyclic ring, such as a piperidino or morpholino group.
, The products may be used as free bases, or, if desired, in the form of their ammonium salts with mineral or organic acids.
The method of making said products consists in react- JB derivatives of alkoxyor dialkoxy carbamic acids of the general formula 00.x with basic compounds of the general formula into a heterocyclic ring, other symbols having the same meaning as above.
Among monophenyl carbamic acid derivatives (carbanilic acid derivatives) there are most appropriate the compounds of the general formula R1 R1 0 R.
R 0 R R Rs R RI with basic compounds mentioned above, wherein Z signifies a radical selected from the group consisting of the remaining symbols having the same meaning as above. The products with only one aromatic nucleus possess the following structure:
R is a radical selected from the group consisting of cycloalkyl, aralkyl and aryl, and R R R are either hydrogen atoms or alkyl radicals.
The condensation may be generally carried out by heating the components in a solution of an appropriate solvent such as toluene.
Example 1 The preparation of 4-ethoxy diphenyl carbamic acid ester of diethylamino ethanol. 11.5 g. of sodium are shaken in 600 cc. of boiling dry toluene.
is added in portions. The mixture is then heated under reflux until all the sodium is dissolved, humidity being excluded. Then a hot solution of '138 g. of 4-ethoxy diphenyl carbamic acid chloride in 500 cc. of dry toluene is added and the heating continued for one hour. The
precipitated sodium chloride is separated by filtration and I The preparation of 4-butoxy diphenyl carbamic ester of diethylamino ethanol: this substance may be obtained by reacting 59 g. of diethylamino ethanol with 152 g. of 4-butoxy diphenyl carbamic acid chloride in the man;

. (a) 3-butoxy diphenyl carbarnic ester of diethylamino ethanol; the base boils at 135 C./0.02 mm., its hydrochloride melts at 116-119" C. (recrystallized from a mixture of toluene-petroleum ether).
(b) 2-butoxy diphenyl carbamic acid ester of diethylamino ethanol. The bas'e'boils at 150 C./0.03 mm., its hydrochloride melts at 136 C. (recrystallized from toluene-petroleum ether).

7 Example 4 The preparation of 4-phenoxycarbanilic acid ester of diethylamino ethanol: 211 g. of p-phenoxy phenyl isocyanate are dissolved in 1000 cc. of dry toluene and the hot solution is added in portions to a boiling solution of 117g. of dry, freshly redistilled diethylamino ethanol in 1500 cc. of dry toluene. After having been boiled for an hour the reaction mixture is left standing for 12 hours. Then 20 cc. of water are added and the whole is shaken vigorously. After an additional 24 hours the mixture is washed several times with water until alkaline reaction disappears. The basic ester is then extracted with diluted hydrochloric acid, the extract is made alkaline with sodium carbonate and the aqueous solution is again extracted with ether. The hydrochloride of thedesired base may be directly precipitated from the dried ethereal solution by adding an equivalent of hydrogen chloride in a dry ethereal solution. The hydrochloride melts, after having been recrystallized from toluene, at 136-137 C. 7

After a recrystallization from an ethanol-ether mixture the corresponding hydrochloride melts at 127-128 C. i

Thus, for example,'3-butoxy diphenyl carbamate of diethylamino ethanol (hydrochloride) is insurface anesthesia 76 times and in infiltration anesthesia 11 1 addition salts thereof.

The 4-butoxy derivativeis in surface anesthesia 53 times in infiltration anesthesia 14.5 times more eifective than novocaine, while its toxicity is about 20 percent lower. The same butoxy derivative is about 4 times more elficient in infiltration anesthesia than cocaine, which, however, is 5 times more toxic.
