     GUINEA PIG ILEUM ASSAY--TONIC CONTRACTION 
     Male guinea-pigs weighing from 300-400 grams were stunned and bled. The abdomen was opened and 10-15 cm of terminal ileum was carefully removed and cleaned and placed in Tyrode&#39;s Solution of the following composition: NaCl (8 g/l), KCl (0.2 g/l), MgCl 2  (0.2 g/l.). CaCl 2  (0.2 g/l). NaH 2  PO 4  (0.05 g/l), NaHCO 3  (1.0 g/l) and Glucose (1 g/l). The solution was maintained at 37° C. and gassed with 95%O 2  and 5%CO 2 . Portions of the ileum were placed over a glass rod, a shallow incision was made the length of the mesenteric attachment just severing the outer-longitudinal muscle layer. The longitudinal muscle was separated from the underlying circular muscle by gentle dissection (Rang, H. P. Annals of N.Y. Academy of Science Vol. 144, page 756, (1964)). The tissue was fixed at one end to a tissue holder, the other end was connected by a thread to a force transducer and suspended in a muscle bath containing Tyrode&#39;s Solution maintained at 37° C. and gassed with 95%O 2  and 5%CO 2 . An initial tension of 500 mg was applied and the tissue allowed to equilibrate for 60 minutes prior to the start of the study. During this period the tissue was washed every 16 minutes. Each preparation, at 16 minute intervals, was challenged with KCl sufficient to yield a bath K +  concentration of 80 mMK for 2 minutes, then washed with fresh solution. The 16 minute interval between K +  challenges was maintained throughout the study. Upon stabilization of the responses to the K +  challenge the test compound (potential calcium entry antagonist) was introduced into the bath 2 minutes prior to and during the 2 minute exposure to K +  after which the bath was cleared and washed with fresh solution. Logarithmically increasing doses (up to 10 -4  M) of the potential antagonist were administered as the study progressed. 
     The measure of compound&#39;s ability to inhibit the tonic contraction of muscle is a measure of its activity as a calcium channel blocking agent. The IC 50  is that concentration at which a compound inhibits the tonic contraction of muscle by 50%. 
     The activity of compounds of the invention in this test is given in the Table II which follows. 
     Calmodulin (CaM) antagonist activity (ATPase Test) 
     Calmodulin (CaM) antagonist activity was determined from the inhibition of CaM-activated Ca 2+  -Mg 2+  -ATPase activity in the following test. 
     Preparation of CaM-deficient erythrocyte membranes 
     Erythrocyte membranes were prepared from rat according to Luthra et al., Biochim. Biophys. Acta. 418:180, 1976. Packed erythrocytes were washed three times with 0.172M Tris-HCl, pH 7.6. The buffy coat was carefully removed. Erythrocytes hemolysis was induced by addition of 280 ml of distilled water to 20 ml of a 50% suspension of erythrocytes in 0.172M Tris-HCl, pH 7.6. After centrifugation at 27,000×g for 30 minutes, erythrocytes membranes were obtained as a pellet. The pellet was washed 3 times with 20 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 7.6 containing 1 mM ethylene glycol bis(β-aminoethyl ether)N,N,N&#39;,N&#39;-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) and for the next wash EGTA was omitted. Thus obtained almost white ghosts, that is the erythrocyte membranes, were washed once with 18 mM-18 mM histidine-imidazole buffer, pH 7.1, the resulting pellet of CaM-deficient erythrocyte membranes was suspended in the same buffer to give a final protein concentration of about 2 mg/ml. 
     Ca 2+  -Mg 2+  -AtPase assay 
     The ATPase assay used here was essentially the same as that described by Gapinath and Vincenzi, Biochim. Biophys. Res. Commun. 77:1203, 1977. The reaction mixture in a final incubation volume of 1.0 ml contained 2 mM ATP, 18 mM-18 mM histidine-imidazole buffer, pH 7.1, 0.1 mM EGTA, 3 mM MgCl 2 , 80 mM NaCl, 15 mM KCl, 0.1 mM ouabain, CaM, 200 μg of erythrocyte ghost proteins and the compound to be tested. CaCl 2  (0.2 mM) was present in all tubes except in those for the determination of Mg 2+  -ATPase. The reaction was started by addition of ATP and carried out at 37° C. for 30 min. Inorganic phosphate liberated was determined. Protein was determined using the method of Lowry et al. J. Biol. Chem. 193:265, 1951. 
     CaM-deficient erythrocyte membranes yield a Ca 2+  -Mg 2+  -ATPase that is stimulated by CaM above the basal activity. The specific activity of the basal Ca 2+  -Mg 2+  -ATPase is about 10 nmoles of inorganic phosphate/mg protein/min and of the maximally activated enzyme 40-50 nmoles of inorganic phosphate/mg protein/min. The CaM concentration was set at 2 units (CaM units are as described by the Sigma Chemical Company) in the following tests. The activity of a test compound was calculated as the percent inhibition of the CaM-stimulated activity. Concentration-response curves were constructed from the percent inhibition versus the concentration of the test compound, and the IC 50 , which is determined graphically, is that concentration of the test compound causing 50% inhibition. 
     The activity of compounds of this invention in this test is given in Table II which follows.

     The compounds of formula I, and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, as herein described, can be incorporated into standard pharmaceutical dosage forms. The compounds of formula I are useful for oral or parenteral application with the usual pharmaceutical carrier materials, for example, organic or inorganic inert carrier materials, such as water, gelatin, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, talc, vegetable oils, gums, polyalkylene glycols, and the like. The pharmaceutical preparations can be employed in a solid form, for example, as tablets, or capsules, or in liquid form, for example as solutions, suspensions or emulsions. Pharmaceutical adjuvant materials can be added and include preservatives, stabilizers, wetting or emulsifying agents, salts to change the osmotic pressure or to act as buffers. The pharmaceutical preparations can also contain other therapeutically active substances. 
     The invention also relates to a method of inducing calcium antagonist activity in a warm-blooded animal in need of such treatment which comprises administering an effective amount of a compound of formula I. The invention also relates to a method of lowering blood pressure or treating ischemia by bringing about myocardial preservation during ischemia, which comprises administering an effective amount of a compound of formula I, or pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof to a warm-blooded animal in need of such treatment. The amount of an oral daily dosage can be determined by one skilled in the art and would be comparable to that of diltiazem. The amount of an intravenous dosage can also be determined by one skilled in the art and is comparable to that of diltiazem. It is to be understood, however, that dosages may vary from individual to individual and accordingly the above recitation is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention in any way. 
     The following examples further illustrate the invention. All temperatures are in degrees C., unless otherwise mentioned. 
    
    
     EXAMPLE 1 
     2-Aminobenzo[g]benzothiazole 
     To 160 mL of thionyl chloride 64.0 g of N-(2-naphthyl)-β-thiourea was added portionwise while the temperature of the reaction mixture was kept at 30°-40° (internal temperature). After the addition was completed, an additional 80 mL of thionyl chloride was added and the mixture was heated at 50°-55° for 4 hours. It was cooled to room temperature and diluted with 400 mL of ethyl acetate and filtered. The filtrate in 400 mL of water was basified with concentrated ammonium hydroxide. The aqueous suspension was shaken with 300 mL ethyl acetate, then the product was separated by filtration and dried to give 54.1 g (85%) of 2-aminobenzo[g]benzothiazole, mp 258°-260°. 
     EXAMPLE 2 
     2-Aminonaphthalene-1-thiol 
     To a solution of 30.0 g sodium hydroxide in 30 mL of water and 140 mL of ethylene glycol was added 18.0 g of 2-aminobenzo[g]benzothiazole. The mixture was heated at reflux under nitrogen for 20 hours and diluted with 80 mL of water. After cooling, the mixture was filtered, then the filtrate was chilled in an ice-bath and neutralized with acetic acid. The aqueous suspension was extracted with ether (3×200 mL) and the combined extracts were dried (magnesium sulfate). Removal of the solvent gave the product to which heptane (3×150 mL) was added and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. (This step removed traces of acetic acid). The yield of the 2-aminonaphthalene-1-thiol was 15.4 g (97%), mp 108°-110°. A sample of this compound was recrystallized from ethanol, mp 109°-110°. This compound is sensitive to air and therefore was used immediately in the next step of the synthetic scheme. 
     EXAMPLE 3 
     (±)erythro- and threo-[(2-Amino-1-naphthalenyl)thio]-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic Acid Methyl Ester 
     Under nitrogen, a mixture of 15.0 g of 2-aminonaphthalene-1-thiol and 17.8 g of trans-3-(p-methoxyphenyl)glycidate in 150 mL of toluene was stirred and heated at reflux over a period of 17 hours. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give 35.0 g (97%) of a mixture of (±)-erythro- and threo-[(2-amino-1-naphthalenyl)thio]-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid methyl ester. (The erythro/threo ratio of this oil was 8:1, as determined by NMR spectrometry.) The mixture of title compounds, on treatment with hydrogen chloride (anhydrous) in ethyl acetate afforded 31.7 g (88%) of (±)-erythro-[(2-amino-1-naphthalenyl)thio]-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid methyl ester hydrochloride, mp 172°-174°. A sample was recrystallized from methanol--ether, mp 183°-185° (d).

After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated to a volume of about 20 mL. The crystals were separated by filtration to give 1.4 g of 2H-naphtho[1,2-b]-1,4-thiazin-3(4H)-one, mp 211°-212°. The mother liquors after removal of 1.4 g of the above compound were concentrated under reduced pressure to give 11.0 g of a mixture of (±)-threo-[(2-amino-1-naphthalenyl)thio]-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid methyl ester, 2H-naphtho[1,2-b]-1,4-thiazin-3(4H)-one and p-methoxybenzaldehyde. The mixture was chromatographed on a column using 120 g of silica gel. The column was eluted with 75 mL portions of methylene chloride. The first six portions of which were collected and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure gave 1.1 g of an oil, whose nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum was identical with that of p-methoxybenzaldehyde. Further elution of the column with the same solvent (fractions 7-19) afforded 1.0 g of 2H-naphtho[1,2-b]-1,4-thiazin-3(4H)-one. A sample of this compound was recrystallized from ethanol, mp 211°-212°. (±)-threo-[(2-Amino-1 -naphthalenyl)thio]-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid methyl ester was obtained from the column by further elution with methylene chloride. The methylene chloride fractions 20-35 were combined and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure to afford 1.2 g of (±)-threo-[(2-amino-1-naphthalenyl)thio]-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid methyl ester, which was treated with hydrogen chloride (anhydrous) in ethyl acetate to afford 1.1 g (85%) of the hydrochloride of (±)-threo-[(2-amino-1-naphthalenyl)thio]-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid methyl ester, mp 139°-140°. The hydrochloride salt (1.1 g) on treatment with dilute sodium hydroxide and extraction of the aqueous suspension with ethyl acetate gave after removal of the solvent 1.0 g of (±)-threo-[(2-amino-1-naphthalenyl)thio]-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid methyl ester.

After removal of about 100 mL of ethanol the mixture was diluted with water (60 mL) and extracted with ether (100 mL). The aqueous solution was chilled, acidified with acetic acid and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 mL). The combined ethyl acetate solutions were washed with brine and dried (magnesium sulfate). Removal of the solvent at reduced pressure gave 19.0 g of (±)-erythro-[(2-amino-1-naphthalenyl)thio]-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid which after recrystallization from acetonitrile afforded 17.1 g (81%) of pure (±)-erythro-[(2-amino-1-naphthalenyl)thio]-2-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid, mp 171°-173°.
