An improved process for making 5,11-dihydro-11-ethyl-5-methyl-8-{2-{(1-oxido-4-quinolinyl)oxy}ethyl}-6H-di pyrido[3,2-b:2',3&#x2032;-e][1,4]diazepin-6-one.

Process for making 5,11-Dihydro-11-ethyl-5-methyl-8{2-{(1-oxido-4-quinolinyl)oxy}ethyl}-6H-di pyrido[3,2-b:2',3&#x2032;-e][1,4]diazepin-6-one

Novel heterocyclicmethanols are disclosed having the formula: ##STR1## wherein Z is pyrrolidinyl, piperidinyl, homopiperidinyl or pyridinyl; R.sup.1 is hydrogen, loweralkyl or carbethoxymethyl;

Aryloxymethyl derivatives of nitrogenous heterocyclic methanols and

N-(Arylthioalkyl)-N'-(aminoalkyl)ureas and thioureas and oxidation derivatives having the formula ##STR1## wherein B is thio, sulfinyl or sulfonyl; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are hydrogen, loweralkyl, cycloalkyl, 2-furanyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl or phenyl-loweralkyl and R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are hydrogen, loweralkyl, phenyl or phenyl-loweralkyl wherein phenyl is optionally substituted, or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 taken with the adjacent nitrogen form a heterocyclic residue. The compounds are useful in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmia.

N-(arylthioalkyl)-N'-(aminoalkyl)ureas useful in the treatment of

N-(arylthioalkyl)-N'-(aminoalkyl)ureas and thioureas and oxidation derivatives having the formula ##STR1## wherein B is thio, sulfinyl or sulfonyl; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are hydrogen, loweralkyl, cycloalkyl, 2-furanyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl or phenyl-loweralkyl and R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are hydrogen, loweralkyl, phenyl or phenyl-loweralkyl wherein phenyl is optionally substituted, or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 taken with the adjacent nitrogen form a heterocyclic residue.

N-(arylthioalkyl)-N'-(aminoalkyl)ureas

N-(Aryloxyalkyl)-N'-(aminoalkyl)ureas and thioureas having the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are hydrogen, loweralkyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl or phenyllower alkyl, and R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are hydrogen, loweralkyl, phenyl and phenylalkyl or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 taken together with the adjacent nitrogen form a heterocyclic residue are disclosed in a method of suppressing cardiac arrhythmias.
