formed being eliminated by azeotropic distillation. The imino
derivative which is obtained is hydrogenated by means of sodium
borohydride in methanol or lithium hydride in tetrahydrofuran.
This hydrogenation may be carried out over a wide range of
temperature.
The foregoing method produces the compounds of for~ula
(V) in the form of a mixture of axial and equatorial isomers.
This mixture may be separated into two fractions by virtue of
differing solubilities of the hydrochloride of the isomers in an
aqueous solution having a pH value of 3 or by chromatography.
Hence the compounds of formulae (I) and (III) may be obtained either
in the form of a mixture of their axial and equatorial isomers,
or in the form of the axial or equatorial isomer. However it has
not yet been possible to determine whether the fraction which i8
insoluble in water having a pH value of 3 is constituted by either
the axial or equatorial isomer or possibly by a mixture of the
two, and likewise with the soluble fraction. In view of this,
the term "form a" will hereinafter be used to designate that
compound represented by formula (V) of which the Rf in the chosen
2C assay of thin-layer chromatography is smaller than that of the
corresponding i30meric compound of ~ormula (V) which will be
designated hereinafter by the term "form b". The results of the
thin-layer chromatographic assay in question are illustrated in

~ he same denominations "form a" and "form b" will be
used hereinafter to designate the corresponding isomers of the
substances of formulae (III) and (I) of which the starting-product
is either "form a" or "form b" of the compound represented by
formula (v). Consequently, the above-described process for
obtaining the derivatives of formula (I) using derivatives of
formula (v) a~ starting-product~ is equally applicable to either
"form a" or "form b" of the derivatives of formula (v) for the
preparation of the corresponding isomers of formula (I).
The compounds of the invention have been found to
possess valuable pharmacological properties and, in particular,
some of them have been found to possess a powerful analgesic
action which is devoid of any morphine-like effects.
Said properties render the compounds concerned of
particular interest in the treatment of pain.
Thus the invention includes within its scope a method
of relieving pain in a subject in need of such treatment by
administering to the subject an effective amount of the appro-
priate compound of formula (I) orof a pharmaceutically acceptable
acid addition salt thereof.
Analgesics are agents which relieve pain by acting
centrally to elevate the pain threshold without disturbing
consciousness or altering other sen~ory conditions.
Agents which are u3ed principally for the symptomatic
relief of pain may, for convenience of classification, be divided
into two general groups :
0 1) Narcotic analgesics, such as the o~ium derivatives.
3 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Amongst these, morphine is one of the most important
drugs and possesses numerous useful properties, analgesia being

- 5 -
~i. "
., ~, .,

iO770~0

one of its main activities.
No other drugs i8 no generally useful in relieving
various catagories of severe pain. Unfortunately, morphine
causes euphoria and addiction and it depresses respiration.
If morphine, or a related compound, i9 given over a
long period of time, tolerance to the analgesio effect de~elops
90 that the do~e must be incr~a~ed periodically to obtain
equivalent pain relief. For these reasons, it is generally
agreed that morphine and its derivatives ~hould not be uqed
for pain when some other analgesic will ~uffice.
The analgesic compounds of the invention are completely
devoid of any morphine-like effects and their use may therefore
be recommended in a larger number of cases than the morphine
deri~atives.
2) Non-narcotic analge~ics such as, for example, the
; salicylate derivatives.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ !
These are generally le~s active than the narcotic
analgesics but, on the other hand, they do not depress respira-
tion and do not cause any or only very slight addiction.
It will be seen that the analgesic compounds of the
invention compare very favourably to the most commonly used non-
narcotic analgesics.
In addition to the above, some compounds of formula I
have been found to possess useful pharmacological properties
capable of rendering them of considerable value in the treatment
of disorders of the cardiovascular system characterized by high
blood pre~qure.
A further object of the invention is therefore a method
of treating pathological disorders of arterial pressure and, in
particular, hyper~ention in a subject in need of such treatment
by administering to the said subject at least one appropriate
compound of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid

addition salt thereof,
There are numerous types of hypertension but no universal
remedy is at preeent know~ which is capable of combating these
different types of diseases, indi~idual cases varying widely as
regards their response to various drugs.
They are therefore many antihyperten3ive agents which
are used to treat the different types of hypertension.
Amongst them, ~ome compounds are known to exert a
ganglioplegic effect in that they interrupt the sympathicotonic
impulses thus causing relaxation of the vascular walls. Others
are characterized by a rather narrow margin between their thera-
peutic and toxic doses.
~ inally, it is known that certain antihypertensive
agent~ exert such a sudden and powerful antihypertensive effect
that their action is difficult to control.
; The antihypertensive compounds of the invention do not
present these disadvantages.
Pharmacological tests have been undertaken with a ~iew
to demonstrating either the analgesic action or the antihyper-
tensive effects of the compounds of the in~ention.1) Analgesic action
The following compounds of the invention were found to
be particularly useful a~ analgesics :
4-~(N-phenyl-N-acetyl)-aminoJ -l-l 3-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-propyl1 -

propyl~ -trans-decahydroquinoline (Compound E).
The first test was carried out according to the technique
of KOS~ER (Fed. Proc. 18, 412, 1959) on batches of 20 mice which
had been deprived of food for 18 hours.
Each batch of animals with the exception of the controls
was given an intragastric dose of the compound to be studied so
that each batch received a higher dose than the preceding batch.
Thirty minutes after administration, the animals of each batch,
as well as the control animals, were given intraperitoneally
0.2 ml. of a 0.25~ acetic acid solution per 10 g. of body-weight.
During the 20 minutes following the injection of acetic
acid, the number o~ characteristic contorsions made by the animals
was noted. The absence of contor~ions corresponds to animals
under the influence of analgesia.
Note wa~ taken of the AD50, i.e. the dose of the
compound under study which provoked analgesia in half of the
animals treated.

10 - The second test was carried out according to the
technique of NILSEN (Ac~a Pharmacol, et toxicol. 18, 10 1961)
on batches of 10 mice.
The animals were connected to a source of elec$ric
current by means of two electrodes inserted into the tail.
The threshold-voltage was then determined, i.e. the
minimum voltage which, in the course of two successive shocks,
caused the animals to squeak at least one time out of two. After
this, the compound to be studied was administered by intragestric
ro~te. At various times after ad~inistration, four successive
shocks were given at the threshold-voltage determined and it was
considered that the animal was protected if it did not squeak
after any of the shocks.
Note was taken of the dose of compound (AD50) which
suppre~sed the squeak in half of the treated animals.
The results of this test are given in the following

1957) on batches of 10 male mice
A typical syndrome was produced in the animal~ by intra-
peritoneal injection of 0.25 ml. of a 0.02% aquecus ~olution of
2-phenyl-1,~-benzoquinone (phenylbenzoquinone).
The syndrome in que~tion is characteriaed by intermittent
contractions of the abdomen, twi~ting and turning of the trunk
and exten~ion of the hind legs. Note was taken of the number of
movements occurring over a period of 30 minute~ starting 15
minutes after the injection of phenylbenzoquinone.
The compound to be tested was injected 30 minutes
before the phenylbenzoquinone in such a way that each batch
received a higher do~e than the preceding batch, a control batch
receiving only the phenylbenzoquinone.
Note was taken of the AD50, i.e. the dose of substance
which reduced at least by half the number of contorsions in half
of the animals, as compared to the number of contorsions observed
in the control group.

The fourth test was carried out according to the tech-
nique of CHAR~IER and al (Arch. int. Pharmacodyn. 1~4, 306, 1961)
on batches of 10 rats.
The animals were connected to a source of electric
current by means of two electrodes of which one was attached to
the tail and the other maintained in the rectum.
lhe pain-threshold voltage was then determined for each
rat by passing a current of 2 volts and i~creasing the current by
one volt at a time until the animal gave a squeak. ~his control
test was repeated three times at intervals of 15 minutes. lhe
compound under study was then administered by intragastric route
and, starting from the threshold-voltage already determined
note was taken, every 10 minutes for 2 hours, of the voltage which
caused the animals to squeak.
The results were noted according to the WINTER and
FIATAKER scale (J.Pharmacol. Exp. Therap. 98, 305, 1950) and the
AD's 50 obtained are li~ted in the Table given hereunder :

Finally, a test wa~ carried out according to the tech-
nique of D'AMOUR and SMI~H (J Pharm. Exp. ~her. 72, 74, 1941)
on batche6 of 10 male rat~ weighing about 200 g.
A 300-watt heating-bulb was focu~ed on the tip of the
rat' 9 tail at such a distance that a typical twitch of the tail
(flick-tail) wa~ obtained after 4 to 6 second3 of irradiation.
~ he animals, with the exception of a control batch,
were giYen the compound to be tested by sub-cutaneous route and
note was taken of the time which elapsed between the beginning
of irradiation and the first reaction pf the animal (reaction
time), as compared to the reaction time of the control animals.

the preferred compound of the invention i9:
4- ~(N-phenyl-N-carbethoxy)-amino ~ 3-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-
propylJ -trans-decahydroquinoline (Compound F).
A pharmacological test was undertaken with a view to
demonstrating the antihypertensive action of Compound F.
This test was carried out on male rats belonging to a
race which has been specially bred to produce animals having
high blood pressure, according to the technique of OKAMO~O and
AOKI (Jap. Circul. J. 27, 282, 1963).
The animals employed were about ten weeks old and had
a blood pressure reading in the region of 180 mm.Hg.
This test was divided into two series. In the first
series, one single dose of the compound under study was admini ter-
ed by intragastric route to each animal and the arterial pressure
of the latter was measured every hour for six hours after adminis-
tration. In the second series, the product under study was given
by the same route every day for ele~en consecutive days and
arterial pressure was measured daily throughout this period.
The amount of compound administered varied from one
animal to another, as far as the first ~eries of tests was
concerned.
The following results were obtained :

A solution of 76.8 g. (0.5 mol) of 4-oxo-trans-
decahydroquinoline and 1.0 g. of _-toluenesulphonic acid in 350 ml.
of hexane was refluxed in a one-litre flask and 46.3 g. (0.5 mol)
of aniline were added.
Refluxing was continued until the water which formed
- was completely eliminated by means of a Dean-Stark system and
140 ml. of hexane was distilled off. The solution was allowed
to cool and 250 ml. of benzene were added. The reactlon medium
was firstly washed with water, then with a diluted ~olution of
sodium hydroxide and finally again with water. The resulting
solution was dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate, filtered and
the solvents were eliminated to give 102.4 g. of crude (4-
phenylimino-trans-decahydroquinoline (yield : 89~).
