TECHNICAL FIELD
This invention relates to novel piperidinylamino tricyclic compounds and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them. The pharmaceutically active compounds of this invention can be used as substance P antagonists.
BACKGROUND ART
Substance P is a naturally occurring undecapeptide belonging to the tachykinin family of peptides, the latter being so-named because of their prompt stimulatory action on smooth muscle tissue. More specifically, substance P is a pharmaceutically active neuropeptide that is produced in mammals (having originally been isolated from gut) and possesses a characteristic amino acid sequence that is illustrated by D. F. Veber et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 4,680,283. The wide involvement of substance P and other tachykinins in the pathophysiology of numerous diseases has been amply demonstrated in the art. For instance, substance P has recently been shown to be involved in the transmission of pain or migraine, as well as in central nervous system disorders such as anxiety and schizophrenia, in respiratory and inflammatory diseases such as asthma and rheumatoid arthritis, respectively, and in gastrointestinal disorders and diseases of GI tract, like ulcerative colitis and Crohn's diseases, etc. It is also reported that the tachykinin antagonists are useful for the treatment of allergic conditions, immunoregulation, vasodilation, bronchospasm, reflex or neuronal control of the viscera and senile dementia of the Alzheimer type, emesis, sunburn and Helicobacter pylori infection.
International Publications WO 93/01170, WO 95/08549 and WO 97/08144 disclose a wide variety of piperidine derivatives, as tachykinin antagonists such as substance P antagonists.

General Synthesis
The piperidine compounds of the formula (I) of this invention may be prepared as described in the following reaction schemes.
Unless otherwise indicated, in the reaction schemes that follow, Ar 1 , Ar 2 , X and n are defined as above.
Scheme 1 illustrates the preparation of compounds of the formula (I). ##STR5##
Referring to Scheme 1, N-protection of a compound of the formula (IX) (Ar 2 is phenyl or the like and Y is for example 2-methoxyphenyl) may be carried out by treatment with (t-BuOCO) 2 O (Boc 2 O) in the presence of a base such as sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) or triethylamine (Et 3 N) to obtain a compound of the formula (X). An alternative route for N-protection of a compound of the formula (IX) may be carried out by treatment with carbobenzoxy chloride (Cbz--Cl) in the presence of a base such as sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) or triethylamine (Et 3 N). Compound (IX) is known or can be prepared by known methods, for example according to a method described in International Publication No. WO93/01170. Compound (X) is subjected to hydrogenolysis to obtain a compound of the formula (XI). The hydrogenolysis may be carried out by treatment with H 2 or ammonium formate (HCO 2 NH 4 ) in the presence of a metal catalyst such as a palladium on charcoal (e.g., 20% palladium on charcoal) in a suitable solvent.
Then, the compound (XI) is subjected to reductive alkylation with Ar 1 --CHO, selected from the groups of the formulae (W, X, R 1 and R 2 are defined above): ##STR6## to obtain a compound of the formula (XII). This reaction can be carried out in the presence of hydride reagents include borohydrides such as sodium borohydride (NaBH 4 ), sodium cyanoborohydride (NaBH 3 CN) and sodium triacetoxyborohydride (NaB(OAc) 3 H), borans, aluminum-based reagents and trialkylsilanes. Suitable solvents include polar solvents such as methanol, ethanol, methylene chloride, tetrahydrofuran (THF), dioxane and ethylacetate. This reaction is typically carried out at a temperature from -78° C. to reflux temperature of the solvent, preferably 0° C. to 25° C. for 5 minutes to 48 hours. The compound (XII) may be converted into a compound of the formula (I) by treatment with acid catalyst such as hydrochloride (HCl) in methanol, concentrated (conc.) HCl in ethylacetate or CF 3 CO 2 H in dichloroethan under suitable conditions.
Further, compound, Ar 1 --CHO as mentioned above can be prepared by direct or indirect formylation of a corresponding tetrazole compound (III-a) or (III-b) or a imidazole compound (III-c) as shown below.
Any formylation methods known to those skilled in the art may be used to introduce a formyl group into a benzene ring. For example, direct formylation may be accomplished by contacting the quinoline or benzazepin compound with a suitable formylating agent in the presence of a suitable catalyst. Suitable formylating agent/catalyst systems include dichloromethyl methyl ether/titanium (IV) chloride (Cl 2 CHOCH 3 /TiCl 4 ), trifluoroacetic acid (CF 3 CO 2 H)/hexamethylenetetamine (modified Duffs conditions) and phosphoryl trichloride (POCl 3 )/DMF (Vilsmeier's conditions). Indirect formylation may be achieved by halogenating the quinoline or benzoazepin compound, displacing the halogen atom introduced with a cyano group, and then subjecting the resultant cyano-substituted compound to reduction. The halogenation as used herein may be carried out according to the procedure reported in G. A. Olah et al. J. Org Chem, Vol. 58, p. 3194, 1993. The displacement of the halogen atom with a cyano group may be performed according to the methods reported in D. M. Tschaem et al., Synth Commun, Vol. 24., p. 887, 1994 or K. Takagi et al., Bull Chem. Soc. Jpn. Vol. 64, p. 1118, 1991. The reduction as used herein may be performed in the presence of diisopropyl aluminiumhydride (DIBAL-H) in dichloromethane or Raney nickel in formic acid.
Scheme 2 illustrates methods for preparing a compound of the formula (III-a), (III-b) or (III-c). ##STR7##
A tetrazole compound (III-a) or (III-b) can be prepared by reacting a corresponding compound of the formula (V), such as 1-indanone or 1-tetralone derivative, with sodium azide or potassium azide in the presence of an acid catalyst such as sulfonic acid (Route 1). This reaction can be carried out for example in a reaction inert solvent such as dichloromethane, at a temperature from -50° C. to reflux temperature of the solvent , preferably from 0° C. to 25° C. for 10 minutes to 48 hours, preferably 30 minutes to 3 hours.
Alternatively, the tetrazole compound (III-a) or (III-b) can be prepared from a compound (IV-a) or (IV-b) with POX 3 (X is Cl or Br) alone or in the presence of PX 5 , and further reaction of the reaction mixture with sodium azide or potassium azide to give the compound (III-a) or (III-b) (Route 2-2, reported for example in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication Gazette No. 52-57195). The compound of (IV-a) or (IV-b) can be reacted with Lawesson's Reagent in a reaction inert solvent, such as toluene, at reflux temperature for 5 minutes to 24 hours to exchange oxo group of the compound (IV-a) or (IV-b) with thioxo group. Then the thioxo compound can be reacted with hydrazine, preferably in a poler solvent, such as water, methanol or ethanol at a temperature from 0° C. to 100° C. for 5 minutes to 24 hours, followed by a reaction with nitrous acid for example in water in the presence of acid such as acetic acid at a temperature from -15° C. to 15° C. for 5 minutes to 24 hours to give the compound of (III-a) or (III-b).
The intermediate (IV-a) or (IV-b) may also be reacted with diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD) in the presence of triphenylphosphine (Ph 3 P) in a reaction inert solvent such as azidotrimethylsilane (TMSN 3 ) to give the compound of (III-a) or (III-b) (J. V. Duncia et al., J. Org. Chem. 1991, Vol. 56, pp. 2395-2400).
The compound (IV-a) or (IV-b) can be prepared by subjecting a compound (V) to the Schmidt reaction (Route 2-1, reported in for example March's Advanced Org. Chem., p. 986-987). The Schmidt reaction can be carried out at a temperature from -50° C. to reflux temperature of the solvent for 10 minutes to 48 hours.
The intermediate of the formula (IV-a), wherein n is 2, may be prepared by reacting a nitrobenzaldehyde (VIII) with malonic acid in the presence of pyridine in a reaction inert solvent such as ethanol to give a compound (VII) (Route 4-1), followed by a conventional hydrogenation, for example, using a metal catalyst such as a palladium on charcoal (Route 4-2) (G. H. Jones et. al., Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, Vol. 30, No.2, pp. 295-303, 1987). The reaction of the compound (VIII) with malonic acid in the presence of pyridine can be carried out by heating the mixture at the solvent reflux temperature for 30 minutes to 3 days. Then, the intermediate (IV-a) can be reacted with a corresponding ethylenediamine in the presence of toluene-p-sulfonic acid (p-TsOH) to give the compound (III-c) (Route 3-1) according to the methods reported in R. F. Cookson et al., J. S. C. Perkin I, p. 1850, 1975. This reaction is typically carried out without solvent or in a reaction inert solvent such as xylene at a temperature of 100° C. to 250° C. for 30 minutes to 48 hours. The compound of formula (III-c) can be oxidized to give a compound of (III-d) (Route 3-2) under suitable conditions known to a skilled person. This reaction can be carried out in the presence of a metal catalyst such as Raney nickel in a reaction inert solvent such as methanol or ethanol, or in the presence of an oxidizing agent such as KMnO 4 or MnO 2 in a reaction inert solvent such as acetone, benzene or toluene.
Starting materials of the formula (V) and (VIII) are either known, or may be prepared according to conventional procedures known for the preparation of analogous compounds.
The compounds of formula (I), and the intermediates shown in the above reaction schemes can be isolated and purified by conventional procedures, such as recrystallization or chromatographic separation.
As the piperidine compounds of this invention possess at least two asymmetric centers, they are capable of occurring in various stereoisomeric forms or configurations. Hence, the compounds can exist in separated (+)- and (-)-optically active forms, as well as mixtures thereof. The present invention includes all such forms within its scope. Individual isomers can be obtained by known methods, such as optical resolution, optically selective reaction, or chromatographic separation in the preparation of the final product or its intermediate.
In so far as the piperidine compounds of this invention are basic compounds, they are all capable of forming a wide variety of different salts with various inorganic and organic acids. Although such salts must be pharmaceutically acceptable for administration to animals, it is often desirable in practice to initially isolate the piperidine base compound from the reaction mixture as a pharmaceutically unacceptable salt and then simply convert to the free base compound by treatment with an line reagent and thereafter convert the free base to a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt. The acid addition salts of the piperidine base compounds of this invention are readily prepared by treating the base compound with a substantially equivalent amount of the chosen mineral or organic acid in an aqueous solvent or in a suitable organic solvent, such as methanol or ethanol. Upon careful evaporation of the solvent, the desired solid salt is readily obtained. The acid which are used to prepare the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of the aforementioned piperidine base compounds of this invention are those which form non-toxic acid addition salts, i.e., salts containing pharmaceutically acceptable anions, such as the hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, nitrate, sulfate or bisulfate, phosphate or acid phosphate, acetate, lactate, citrate or acid citrate, tartrate or bi-tartrate, succinate, maleate, fumarate, gluconate, saccharate, benzoate, methanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, p-toluenesulfonate and pamoate (i.e., 1,1'-methylene-bis-(2-hydroxy-3-naphthoate))salts.
The piperidine compounds of the invention which have also acidic groups are capable of forming base salts with various pharmaceutically acceptable cations. Examples of such salts include the alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal salts and particularly, the sodium and potassium salts. These salts are all prepared by conventional techniques.
The chemical bases which are used as reagents to prepare the pharmaceutically acceptable base salts of this invention are those which form non-toxic base salts with the herein described acidic piperidine derivatives. These particular non-toxic base salts include those derived form such pharmaceutically acceptable cations as sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium, etc. These salts can easily be prepared by treating the aforementioned acidic piperidine compounds with an aqueous solution containing the desired pharmaceutically acceptable cation, and then evaporating the resulting solution to dryness, preferably under reduced pressure. Alternatively, they may also be prepared by mixing lower alkanoic solutions of the acidic compounds and the desired alkali metal alkoxide together, and then evaporating the resulting solution to dryness in the same manner as before. In either case, stoichiometric quantities of reagents are preferably employed in order to ensure completeness of reaction and maximum production of yields of the desired final product.
The active piperidine compounds of the present invention exhibit significant substance P receptor-binding activity and therefore, are of value in the treatment of a wide variety of clinical conditions which are characterized by the presence of an excess of said substance P activity. Such conditions include gastrointestinal disorders, central nervous system disorders, inflammatory diseases, emesis, urinary incontinence, pain, migraine or angiogenesis in a mammalian subject, especially humans. For treatment of emesis, these compounds may preferably be used in combination with a 5HT 3 receptor antagonist.
The active piperidine compounds of the formula (I) of this invention can be administered via either the oral, parenteral or topical routes to mammals. In general, these compounds are most desirably administered to humans in doses ranging from about 0.3 mg up to 750 mg per day, although variations will necessarily occur depending upon the weight and condition of the subject being treated and the particular route of administration chosen. However, a dosage level that is in the range of from about 0.06 mg to about 2 mg per kg of body weight per day is most desirably employed. Nevertheless, variations may still occur depending upon the species of animal being treated and its individual response to said medicament, as well as on the type of pharmaceutical formulation chosen and the time period and interval at which such administration is carried out. In some instances, dosage levels below the lower limit of the aforesaid range may be more than adequate, while in other cases still larger doses may be employed without causing any harmful side effects provided that such higher dose levels are first divided into several small doses for administration throughout the day.
The compounds of the present invention may be administered alone or in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents by either of the above routes previously indicated, and such administration can be carried out in single or multiple doses. More particularly, the novel therapeutic agents of the invention can be administered in a wide variety of different dosage forms, i.e., they may be combined with various pharmaceutically acceptable inert carriers in the form of tablets, capsules, lozenges, trochees, hard candies, powders, sprays, creams, salves, suppositories, jellies, gels, pastes, lotions, ointments, aqueous suspensions, injectable solutions, elixirs, syrups, and the like. Such carriers include solid diluents or fillers, sterile aqueous media and various nontoxic organic solvents, etc. Moreover, oral pharmaceutical compositions can be suitably sweetened and/or flavored. In general, the therapeutically-effective compounds of this invention are present in such dosage forms at concentration levels ranging about 5.0% to about 70% by weight.
For oral administration, tablets containing various excipient such as microcrystalline cellulose, sodium citrate, calcium carbonate, dicalcium phosphate and glycine may be employed along with various disintegrants such as starch and preferably corn, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid and certain complex silicates, together with granulation binders like polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, gelatin and acacia. Additionally, lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate, sodium lauryl sulfate and talc are often very useful for tabletting purposes. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in gelatine capsules; preferred materials in this connection also include lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene grycols. When aqueous suspensions and/or elixirs are desired for oral administration, the active ingredient may be combined with various sweetening or flavoring agents, coloring matter or dyes, and, if so desired, emulsifying and/or suspending agents as well, together with such diluents as water, ethanol, propylene glycol, glycerin and various like combinations thereof.
For parenteral administration, solutions of a compound of the present invention in either sesame or peanut oil or in aqueous propylene glycol may be employed. The aqueous solutions should be suitably buffered (preferably pH>8) if necessary and the liquid diluent first rendered isotonic. These aqueous solutions are suitable for intravenous injection purposes. The oily solutions are suitable for intra-articular, intra-muscular and subcutaneous injection purposes. The preparation of all these solutions under sterile conditions is readily accomplished by standard pharmaceutical techniques well-known to those skilled in the art. Additionally, it is also possible to administer the compounds of the present invention topically when treating inflammatory conditions of the skin and this may preferably be done by way of creams, jellies, gels, pastes, ointments and the like, in accordance with standard pharmaceutical practice.
The activity of the compounds of the present invention, as substance P antagonists, is determined by their ability to inhibit the binding of substance P at its receptor sites in CHO-cells which reveal NK1 receptor or IM-9 cells employing radioactive reagents. The substance P antagonist activity of the herein described piperidine compounds is evaluated by using the standard assay procedure described by D. G. Payan et al., as reported in The Journal of Immunology, Vol. 133, p. 3260, 1984. This method essentially involves determining the concentration of the individual compound required to reduce by 50% the amount of radiolabelled substance P reagents at their receptor sites in said isolated cow tissues or IM-9 cells, thereby affording characteristic IC 50 values for each compound tested. More specifically, inhibition of [ 3 H]SP binding to human IM-9 cells by compounds are determined in assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 1 mM MnCl 2 , 0.02 % bovine serum albumin, bacitracin (40 μg/ml), leupeptin (4 μg/ml), chymostatin (2 μg/ml) and phosphoramidon (30 μg/ml)). The reaction is initiated by the addition of cells to assay buffer containing 0.56 nM [ 3 H]SP and various concentrations of compounds (total volume; 0.5 ml) and allowed to incubate for 120 min at 4° C. Incubation is terminated by filtration onto GF/B filters (presoaked in 0.1% polyethylenimine for 2 hours). Nonspecific binding is defined as the radioactivity remaining in the presence of 1 μM SP. The filters are placed into tubes and counted using liquid scintillation counter. Some compounds, prepared in the working examples as described below, were tested in accordance with the above procedures, and showed good binding activities (i.e., IC 50 value of 0.1 to 50 μM).
The adverse effect on Ca 2+ channel binding affinity is determined by study of verapamil binding in a rat heart membrane preparation. More specifically, verapamil binding is performed as previously described by Reynolds et al., (J. Phannacol. Exp. Ther. Vol. 237, p. 731, 1986). Briefly, incubations are initiated by the addition of tissue to tubes containing 0.25 nM [ 3 H]desmethoxyverapamil and various concentrations of compounds (total volume; 1 ml). Nonspecific binding is defined as radioligand binding remaining in the presence of 3-10 μM methoxyverapamil.
The activity of the compounds of this invention against CNS disorders is determined in a [Sar 9 , Met(O 2 ) 11 ]substance P-induced tapping test in gerbils. More specifically, gerbils are lightly anesthetized with ether and the skull surface is exposed. [Sar 9 , Met(O 2 ) 11 ]substance P or vehicle (5 μl) are administered directly into the lateral ventricles via a 25 gauge needle inserted 3.5 mm below lambda. Following injection, gerbils are placed in 2 liter beaker individually and monitored for repetitive hind paw tapping. Some compounds prepared in the following Examples were tested in accordance with these testing methods. As a result, it was found that the compounds of the present inventions have good antagonist activity toward substance P, particularly good activity against CNS disorders with favorable metabolical properties.
The anti-inflammatory activity of the compounds of this invention is demonstrated by a capsaicin-induced plasma extravasation test. In this test, anti-inflammatory activity is determined as the percent inhibition of plasma protein extravasation in the ureters of male Hartley guinea pigs (weighing 300-350 g). Plasma extravasation is induced by intraperitoneal injection of capsaicin (30 μM in 0.1% BSA containing buffer, 10 ml/animal) into the guinea pigs pentobarbital-anesthetised 25 mg/kg i.p.) and fasted overnight. Test compounds are dissolved in 0.1% methyl cellulose-water and given orally 1 hour before capsaicin challenge. Evans blue dye (30 mg/kg) is administered intravenously 5 minutes before the challenge. The animals are killed 10 minutes after capsaicin injection and both right and left ureter are removed. Tissue dye content is quantitated after overnight formamide extraction at 600 nm absorbance. This test method is known in the literature (A. Nagahisa et al., European Journal of Pharmacology, Vol. 217, pp. 191-195, 1992).
The half life of the compounds of this invention is determined in a human liver microsome preparation. More specifically, the compound (1 μM) was incubated with pooled human liver microsome (2.0 mg/ml), NADP (1.3 mM), NADH (0.93 mM), glucose-6-phosphate (3.3 mM) MgCl 2 (3.3 mM), and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (8 units/ml) in a total volume of 1.2 ml 100 mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4. At various time points (0, 5, 10, 30 and 60 min), a 100 μl sample was added to acetonitrile solution (1.0 ml), which included an internal standard. The precipitated protein was spun down in a centrifuge (3,000× g, 5 min). The supernatant was analyzed by LC-MS. LC-MS unit was consisted of Hewlett Packard HP1090 HPLC system and Sciex API-III. Samples(10 μl) were injected by means of autosampler, onto Hewlett Packard ODS-Hypersil column (2.1×20 mm). A mobile phase was consisted of 80% acetonitrile in 10 mM ammonium acetate. The measurement of API-III was analyzed with multiple reacting monitoring (MRM) detection.

TECHNICAL FIELD
This invention relates to novel piperidinylamino tricyclic compounds and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them. The pharmaceutically active compounds of this invention can be used as substance P antagonists.
BACKGROUND ART
Substance P is a naturally occurring undecapeptide belonging to the tachykinin family of peptides, the latter being so-named because of their prompt stimulatory action on smooth muscle tissue. More specifically, substance P is a pharmaceutically active neuropeptide that is produced in mammals (having originally been isolated from gut) and possesses a characteristic amino acid sequence that is illustrated by D. F. Veber et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 4,680,283. The wide involvement of substance P and other tachykinins in the pathophysiology of numerous diseases has been amply demonstrated in the art. For instance, substance P has recently been shown to be involved in the transmission of pain or migraine, as well as in central nervous system disorders such as anxiety and schizophrenia, in respiratory and inflammatory diseases such as asthma and rheumatoid arthritis, respectively, and in gastrointestinal disorders and diseases of GI tract, like ulcerative colitis and Crohn's diseases, etc. It is also reported that the tachykinin antagonists are useful for the treatment of allergic conditions, immunoregulation, vasodilation, bronchospasm, reflex or neuronal control of the viscera and senile dementia of the Alzheimer type, emesis, sunburn and Helicobacter pylori infection.
International Publications WO 93/01170, WO 95/08549 and WO 97/08144 disclose a wide variety of piperidine derivatives, as tachykinin antagonists such as substance P antagonists.

General Synthesis
The piperidine compounds of the formula (I) of this invention may be prepared as described in the following reaction schemes.
Unless otherwise indicated, in the reaction schemes that follow, Ar 1 , Ar 2 , X and n are defined as above.
Scheme 1 illustrates the preparation of compounds of the formula (I). ##STR5##
Referring to Scheme 1, N-protection of a compound of the formula (IX) (Ar 2 is phenyl or the like and Y is for example 2-methoxyphenyl) may be carried out by treatment with (t-BuOCO) 2 O (Boc 2 O) in the presence of a base such as sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) or triethylamine (Et 3 N) to obtain a compound of the formula (X). An alternative route for N-protection of a compound of the formula (IX) may be carried out by treatment with carbobenzoxy chloride (Cbz--Cl) in the presence of a base such as sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) or triethylamine (Et 3 N). Compound (IX) is known or can be prepared by known methods, for example according to a method described in International Publication No. WO93/01170. Compound (X) is subjected to hydrogenolysis to obtain a compound of the formula (XI). The hydrogenolysis may be carried out by treatment with H 2 or ammonium formate (HCO 2 NH 4 ) in the presence of a metal catalyst such as a palladium on charcoal (e.g., 20% palladium on charcoal) in a suitable solvent.
Then, the compound (XI) is subjected to reductive alkylation with Ar 1 --CHO, selected from the groups of the formulae (W, X, R 1 and R 2 are defined above): ##STR6## to obtain a compound of the formula (XII). This reaction can be carried out in the presence of hydride reagents include borohydrides such as sodium borohydride (NaBH 4 ), sodium cyanoborohydride (NaBH 3 CN) and sodium triacetoxyborohydride (NaB(OAc) 3 H), borans, aluminum-based reagents and trialkylsilanes. Suitable solvents include polar solvents such as methanol, ethanol, methylene chloride, tetrahydrofuran (THF), dioxane and ethylacetate. This reaction is typically carried out at a temperature from -78° C. to reflux temperature of the solvent, preferably 0° C. to 25° C. for 5 minutes to 48 hours. The compound (XII) may be converted into a compound of the formula (I) by treatment with acid catalyst such as hydrochloride (HCl) in methanol, concentrated (conc.) HCl in ethylacetate or CF 3 CO 2 H in dichloroethan under suitable conditions.
Further, compound, Ar 1 --CHO as mentioned above can be prepared by direct or indirect formylation of a corresponding tetrazole compound (III-a) or (III-b) or a imidazole compound (III-c) as shown below.
Any formylation methods known to those skilled in the art may be used to introduce a formyl group into a benzene ring. For example, direct formylation may be accomplished by contacting the quinoline or benzazepin compound with a suitable formylating agent in the presence of a suitable catalyst. Suitable formylating agent/catalyst systems include dichloromethyl methyl ether/titanium (IV) chloride (Cl 2 CHOCH 3 /TiCl 4 ), trifluoroacetic acid (CF 3 CO 2 H)/hexamethylenetetamine (modified Duffs conditions) and phosphoryl trichloride (POCl 3 )/DMF (Vilsmeier's conditions). Indirect formylation may be achieved by halogenating the quinoline or benzoazepin compound, displacing the halogen atom introduced with a cyano group, and then subjecting the resultant cyano-substituted compound to reduction. The halogenation as used herein may be carried out according to the procedure reported in G. A. Olah et al. J. Org Chem, Vol. 58, p. 3194, 1993. The displacement of the halogen atom with a cyano group may be performed according to the methods reported in D. M. Tschaem et al., Synth Commun, Vol. 24., p. 887, 1994 or K. Takagi et al., Bull Chem. Soc. Jpn. Vol. 64, p. 1118, 1991. The reduction as used herein may be performed in the presence of diisopropyl aluminiumhydride (DIBAL-H) in dichloromethane or Raney nickel in formic acid.
Scheme 2 illustrates methods for preparing a compound of the formula (III-a), (III-b) or (III-c). ##STR7##
A tetrazole compound (III-a) or (III-b) can be prepared by reacting a corresponding compound of the formula (V), such as 1-indanone or 1-tetralone derivative, with sodium azide or potassium azide in the presence of an acid catalyst such as sulfonic acid (Route 1). This reaction can be carried out for example in a reaction inert solvent such as dichloromethane, at a temperature from -50° C. to reflux temperature of the solvent , preferably from 0° C. to 25° C. for 10 minutes to 48 hours, preferably 30 minutes to 3 hours.
Alternatively, the tetrazole compound (III-a) or (III-b) can be prepared from a compound (IV-a) or (IV-b) with POX 3 (X is Cl or Br) alone or in the presence of PX 5 , and further reaction of the reaction mixture with sodium azide or potassium azide to give the compound (III-a) or (III-b) (Route 2-2, reported for example in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication Gazette No. 52-57195). The compound of (IV-a) or (IV-b) can be reacted with Lawesson's Reagent in a reaction inert solvent, such as toluene, at reflux temperature for 5 minutes to 24 hours to exchange oxo group of the compound (IV-a) or (IV-b) with thioxo group. Then the thioxo compound can be reacted with hydrazine, preferably in a poler solvent, such as water, methanol or ethanol at a temperature from 0° C. to 100° C. for 5 minutes to 24 hours, followed by a reaction with nitrous acid for example in water in the presence of acid such as acetic acid at a temperature from -15° C. to 15° C. for 5 minutes to 24 hours to give the compound of (III-a) or (III-b).
The intermediate (IV-a) or (IV-b) may also be reacted with diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD) in the presence of triphenylphosphine (Ph 3 P) in a reaction inert solvent such as azidotrimethylsilane (TMSN 3 ) to give the compound of (III-a) or (III-b) (J. V. Duncia et al., J. Org. Chem. 1991, Vol. 56, pp. 2395-2400).
The compound (IV-a) or (IV-b) can be prepared by subjecting a compound (V) to the Schmidt reaction (Route 2-1, reported in for example March's Advanced Org. Chem., p. 986-987). The Schmidt reaction can be carried out at a temperature from -50° C. to reflux temperature of the solvent for 10 minutes to 48 hours.
The intermediate of the formula (IV-a), wherein n is 2, may be prepared by reacting a nitrobenzaldehyde (VIII) with malonic acid in the presence of pyridine in a reaction inert solvent such as ethanol to give a compound (VII) (Route 4-1), followed by a conventional hydrogenation, for example, using a metal catalyst such as a palladium on charcoal (Route 4-2) (G. H. Jones et. al., Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, Vol. 30, No.2, pp. 295-303, 1987). The reaction of the compound (VIII) with malonic acid in the presence of pyridine can be carried out by heating the mixture at the solvent reflux temperature for 30 minutes to 3 days. Then, the intermediate (IV-a) can be reacted with a corresponding ethylenediamine in the presence of toluene-p-sulfonic acid (p-TsOH) to give the compound (III-c) (Route 3-1) according to the methods reported in R. F. Cookson et al., J. S. C. Perkin I, p. 1850, 1975. This reaction is typically carried out without solvent or in a reaction inert solvent such as xylene at a temperature of 100° C. to 250° C. for 30 minutes to 48 hours. The compound of formula (III-c) can be oxidized to give a compound of (III-d) (Route 3-2) under suitable conditions known to a skilled person. This reaction can be carried out in the presence of a metal catalyst such as Raney nickel in a reaction inert solvent such as methanol or ethanol, or in the presence of an oxidizing agent such as KMnO 4 or MnO 2 in a reaction inert solvent such as acetone, benzene or toluene.
Starting materials of the formula (V) and (VIII) are either known, or may be prepared according to conventional procedures known for the preparation of analogous compounds.
The compounds of formula (I), and the intermediates shown in the above reaction schemes can be isolated and purified by conventional procedures, such as recrystallization or chromatographic separation.
As the piperidine compounds of this invention possess at least two asymmetric centers, they are capable of occurring in various stereoisomeric forms or configurations. Hence, the compounds can exist in separated (+)- and (-)-optically active forms, as well as mixtures thereof. The present invention includes all such forms within its scope. Individual isomers can be obtained by known methods, such as optical resolution, optically selective reaction, or chromatographic separation in the preparation of the final product or its intermediate.
In so far as the piperidine compounds of this invention are basic compounds, they are all capable of forming a wide variety of different salts with various inorganic and organic acids. Although such salts must be pharmaceutically acceptable for administration to animals, it is often desirable in practice to initially isolate the piperidine base compound from the reaction mixture as a pharmaceutically unacceptable salt and then simply convert to the free base compound by treatment with an line reagent and thereafter convert the free base to a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt. The acid addition salts of the piperidine base compounds of this invention are readily prepared by treating the base compound with a substantially equivalent amount of the chosen mineral or organic acid in an aqueous solvent or in a suitable organic solvent, such as methanol or ethanol. Upon careful evaporation of the solvent, the desired solid salt is readily obtained. The acid which are used to prepare the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of the aforementioned piperidine base compounds of this invention are those which form non-toxic acid addition salts, i.e., salts containing pharmaceutically acceptable anions, such as the hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, nitrate, sulfate or bisulfate, phosphate or acid phosphate, acetate, lactate, citrate or acid citrate, tartrate or bi-tartrate, succinate, maleate, fumarate, gluconate, saccharate, benzoate, methanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, p-toluenesulfonate and pamoate (i.e., 1,1'-methylene-bis-(2-hydroxy-3-naphthoate))salts.
The piperidine compounds of the invention which have also acidic groups are capable of forming base salts with various pharmaceutically acceptable cations. Examples of such salts include the alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal salts and particularly, the sodium and potassium salts. These salts are all prepared by conventional techniques.
The chemical bases which are used as reagents to prepare the pharmaceutically acceptable base salts of this invention are those which form non-toxic base salts with the herein described acidic piperidine derivatives. These particular non-toxic base salts include those derived form such pharmaceutically acceptable cations as sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium, etc. These salts can easily be prepared by treating the aforementioned acidic piperidine compounds with an aqueous solution containing the desired pharmaceutically acceptable cation, and then evaporating the resulting solution to dryness, preferably under reduced pressure. Alternatively, they may also be prepared by mixing lower alkanoic solutions of the acidic compounds and the desired alkali metal alkoxide together, and then evaporating the resulting solution to dryness in the same manner as before. In either case, stoichiometric quantities of reagents are preferably employed in order to ensure completeness of reaction and maximum production of yields of the desired final product.
The active piperidine compounds of the present invention exhibit significant substance P receptor-binding activity and therefore, are of value in the treatment of a wide variety of clinical conditions which are characterized by the presence of an excess of said substance P activity. Such conditions include gastrointestinal disorders, central nervous system disorders, inflammatory diseases, emesis, urinary incontinence, pain, migraine or angiogenesis in a mammalian subject, especially humans. For treatment of emesis, these compounds may preferably be used in combination with a 5HT 3 receptor antagonist.
The active piperidine compounds of the formula (I) of this invention can be administered via either the oral, parenteral or topical routes to mammals. In general, these compounds are most desirably administered to humans in doses ranging from about 0.3 mg up to 750 mg per day, although variations will necessarily occur depending upon the weight and condition of the subject being treated and the particular route of administration chosen. However, a dosage level that is in the range of from about 0.06 mg to about 2 mg per kg of body weight per day is most desirably employed. Nevertheless, variations may still occur depending upon the species of animal being treated and its individual response to said medicament, as well as on the type of pharmaceutical formulation chosen and the time period and interval at which such administration is carried out. In some instances, dosage levels below the lower limit of the aforesaid range may be more than adequate, while in other cases still larger doses may be employed without causing any harmful side effects provided that such higher dose levels are first divided into several small doses for administration throughout the day.
The compounds of the present invention may be administered alone or in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents by either of the above routes previously indicated, and such administration can be carried out in single or multiple doses. More particularly, the novel therapeutic agents of the invention can be administered in a wide variety of different dosage forms, i.e., they may be combined with various pharmaceutically acceptable inert carriers in the form of tablets, capsules, lozenges, trochees, hard candies, powders, sprays, creams, salves, suppositories, jellies, gels, pastes, lotions, ointments, aqueous suspensions, injectable solutions, elixirs, syrups, and the like. Such carriers include solid diluents or fillers, sterile aqueous media and various nontoxic organic solvents, etc. Moreover, oral pharmaceutical compositions can be suitably sweetened and/or flavored. In general, the therapeutically-effective compounds of this invention are present in such dosage forms at concentration levels ranging about 5.0% to about 70% by weight.
For oral administration, tablets containing various excipient such as microcrystalline cellulose, sodium citrate, calcium carbonate, dicalcium phosphate and glycine may be employed along with various disintegrants such as starch and preferably corn, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid and certain complex silicates, together with granulation binders like polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, gelatin and acacia. Additionally, lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate, sodium lauryl sulfate and talc are often very useful for tabletting purposes. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in gelatine capsules; preferred materials in this connection also include lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene grycols. When aqueous suspensions and/or elixirs are desired for oral administration, the active ingredient may be combined with various sweetening or flavoring agents, coloring matter or dyes, and, if so desired, emulsifying and/or suspending agents as well, together with such diluents as water, ethanol, propylene glycol, glycerin and various like combinations thereof.
For parenteral administration, solutions of a compound of the present invention in either sesame or peanut oil or in aqueous propylene glycol may be employed. The aqueous solutions should be suitably buffered (preferably pH>8) if necessary and the liquid diluent first rendered isotonic. These aqueous solutions are suitable for intravenous injection purposes. The oily solutions are suitable for intra-articular, intra-muscular and subcutaneous injection purposes. The preparation of all these solutions under sterile conditions is readily accomplished by standard pharmaceutical techniques well-known to those skilled in the art. Additionally, it is also possible to administer the compounds of the present invention topically when treating inflammatory conditions of the skin and this may preferably be done by way of creams, jellies, gels, pastes, ointments and the like, in accordance with standard pharmaceutical practice.
The activity of the compounds of the present invention, as substance P antagonists, is determined by their ability to inhibit the binding of substance P at its receptor sites in CHO-cells which reveal NK1 receptor or IM-9 cells employing radioactive reagents. The substance P antagonist activity of the herein described piperidine compounds is evaluated by using the standard assay procedure described by D. G. Payan et al., as reported in The Journal of Immunology, Vol. 133, p. 3260, 1984. This method essentially involves determining the concentration of the individual compound required to reduce by 50% the amount of radiolabelled substance P reagents at their receptor sites in said isolated cow tissues or IM-9 cells, thereby affording characteristic IC 50 values for each compound tested. More specifically, inhibition of [ 3 H]SP binding to human IM-9 cells by compounds are determined in assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 1 mM MnCl 2 , 0.02 % bovine serum albumin, bacitracin (40 μg/ml), leupeptin (4 μg/ml), chymostatin (2 μg/ml) and phosphoramidon (30 μg/ml)). The reaction is initiated by the addition of cells to assay buffer containing 0.56 nM [ 3 H]SP and various concentrations of compounds (total volume; 0.5 ml) and allowed to incubate for 120 min at 4° C. Incubation is terminated by filtration onto GF/B filters (presoaked in 0.1% polyethylenimine for 2 hours). Nonspecific binding is defined as the radioactivity remaining in the presence of 1 μM SP. The filters are placed into tubes and counted using liquid scintillation counter. Some compounds, prepared in the working examples as described below, were tested in accordance with the above procedures, and showed good binding activities (i.e., IC 50 value of 0.1 to 50 μM).
The adverse effect on Ca 2+ channel binding affinity is determined by study of verapamil binding in a rat heart membrane preparation. More specifically, verapamil binding is performed as previously described by Reynolds et al., (J. Phannacol. Exp. Ther. Vol. 237, p. 731, 1986). Briefly, incubations are initiated by the addition of tissue to tubes containing 0.25 nM [ 3 H]desmethoxyverapamil and various concentrations of compounds (total volume; 1 ml). Nonspecific binding is defined as radioligand binding remaining in the presence of 3-10 μM methoxyverapamil.
The activity of the compounds of this invention against CNS disorders is determined in a [Sar 9 , Met(O 2 ) 11 ]substance P-induced tapping test in gerbils. More specifically, gerbils are lightly anesthetized with ether and the skull surface is exposed. [Sar 9 , Met(O 2 ) 11 ]substance P or vehicle (5 μl) are administered directly into the lateral ventricles via a 25 gauge needle inserted 3.5 mm below lambda. Following injection, gerbils are placed in 2 liter beaker individually and monitored for repetitive hind paw tapping. Some compounds prepared in the following Examples were tested in accordance with these testing methods. As a result, it was found that the compounds of the present inventions have good antagonist activity toward substance P, particularly good activity against CNS disorders with favorable metabolical properties.
The anti-inflammatory activity of the compounds of this invention is demonstrated by a capsaicin-induced plasma extravasation test. In this test, anti-inflammatory activity is determined as the percent inhibition of plasma protein extravasation in the ureters of male Hartley guinea pigs (weighing 300-350 g). Plasma extravasation is induced by intraperitoneal injection of capsaicin (30 μM in 0.1% BSA containing buffer, 10 ml/animal) into the guinea pigs pentobarbital-anesthetised 25 mg/kg i.p.) and fasted overnight. Test compounds are dissolved in 0.1% methyl cellulose-water and given orally 1 hour before capsaicin challenge. Evans blue dye (30 mg/kg) is administered intravenously 5 minutes before the challenge. The animals are killed 10 minutes after capsaicin injection and both right and left ureter are removed. Tissue dye content is quantitated after overnight formamide extraction at 600 nm absorbance. This test method is known in the literature (A. Nagahisa et al., European Journal of Pharmacology, Vol. 217, pp. 191-195, 1992).
The half life of the compounds of this invention is determined in a human liver microsome preparation. More specifically, the compound (1 μM) was incubated with pooled human liver microsome (2.0 mg/ml), NADP (1.3 mM), NADH (0.93 mM), glucose-6-phosphate (3.3 mM) MgCl 2 (3.3 mM), and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (8 units/ml) in a total volume of 1.2 ml 100 mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4. At various time points (0, 5, 10, 30 and 60 min), a 100 μl sample was added to acetonitrile solution (1.0 ml), which included an internal standard. The precipitated protein was spun down in a centrifuge (3,000× g, 5 min). The supernatant was analyzed by LC-MS. LC-MS unit was consisted of Hewlett Packard HP1090 HPLC system and Sciex API-III. Samples(10 μl) were injected by means of autosampler, onto Hewlett Packard ODS-Hypersil column (2.1×20 mm). A mobile phase was consisted of 80% acetonitrile in 10 mM ammonium acetate. The measurement of API-III was analyzed with multiple reacting monitoring (MRM) detection.
