This invention relates to a new process for the
preparation of 2-acylamino - benzylamine derivatives
having valuable pharmacological activity and/or being
intermediates for the preparation of valuable
pharmacologically active compounds.
The preparation of 2-amino-benzylamines by
reacting the corresponding 4H-3, 1-benzoxazines with
amines is known from the literature (see for example R. C.
Elderfield "Heterocyclic Compour.ds"~ Vol. 6, page 574).
According to the present invention there is
provided a process for the preparation of' compounds of
general formula

an alkyl group containing from 1 to 3 carbon atoms; R3 represents a
cyclohexyl, hydroxycyclohexyl, isopropylaminocarbonylmethyl or
morpholinocarbonylmethyl group, and R4 represents a benzoyl group) and

The group R4' is the compound of formula II may
for example represent a phenyl, 2-chlorophenyl or 4-methyl :~

Using the process according to the invention we .
have prepared compounds of general formula I and acid
addition salts thereof in excellent yields.
The reaction is conveniently carr1ed out in the :-
presence of a solvent, for example tetraline, or in the
: presence of an excess of~the amine of formula III used, at
temperatures from 100 to 200 C, preferably, however, at
temperatures from 130 to 180 C. The reaction may, however,
also be carried out in the absence of a solvent.
The compounds of general formula I thereby
obtained may~ if desired, be subsequently converted into
--

The dehydration is conveniently effected by mea~s of
a dehydrating agent, advantageouc].y a mineral acid, for
example hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulph~ric
acid or phosphoric acid `
The reaction is preferably carried out in the presen-
ce of a solvent,for example ether, tetrahydrofuran or
dio~ane conveniently at temperatures frorn.0 to 50C,
preferablyj however, at temperatures frorn 15 to 25C.
- The benzyl of general formula IV used as starting
materials may.for example be obtained by reaction of the
corresponding ~ -amino~benzyl alcohols (which rnay be
obtained by reduction of the corresponding benzaldehydes
with ~sodium borohydride) with appropriate aromatic acid
halides ln pyridlne and subsequent alkaline saponifica-
tion of the esters formed.

11.2 g (0.025 mol) of 6.8-dibromo-2-phenyl-4H-3,1-benzoxazine
hydrobromide were refluxed with 17.0 g (0.15 mol) of N-methyl-cyclohexylamine
for 1.5 hours. Subsequently, the reaction mixture was mixed with 2N sodium
hydroxide solution and extracted several times with ether and the organic
layer was then dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated to dryness. The
residue was dissolved in absolute ethanol and ether and the solution was
acidified with ethanolic hydrochloric acid, whereby the 2-benzoylamino-N-
cyclohexyl-3,5-dibromo-N-methyl-benzylamine hydrochloride crystallized ou~.
