Description
The present invention is concerned with new 1,2-dihydroquinolin-2-one derivatives and with the preparation thereof, as well as with pharmaceutical compositions containing these derivatives.
The 1,2-dihydroquinolin-2-ones according to the present invention are compounds of the general formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3, which can be the same or different, are hydrogen atoms or lower alkyl radicals, R.sub.4 is a hydrogen or halogen atom or a lower alkyl or lower alkoxy radical, n is 2, 3, 4 or 5 and A is a valency bond or a methylene radical optionally substituted by a phenyl radical; and the pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof with non-toxic inorganic and organic acids.
The lower alkyl radicals in the definitions of R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 and the lower alkyl and lower alkoxy radicals in the definition of R.sub.4 can be straight-chained or branched and contain up to 6 and preferably up to 4 carbon atoms.
The halogen atom is preferably a fluorine, chlorine or bromine atom, chlorine being most preferred.
We have found that the new basic ethers of 1,2-dihydroquinolin-2-one of general formula (I), in the case of parenteral as well as per oral administration, exhibit an outstanding anti-allergic action which can be demonstrated in the pharmacological test of passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA test) in vivo in rats. The inhibiting potency of this group of compounds can also be convincingly demonstrated in vitro on the basis of the antigen-induced mast cell degranulation. Therefore, the compounds of general formula (I) according to the present invention can be used especially advantageously for combating allergic diseases, for example allergic asthma, hay fever and urticaria.
The new compounds of general formula (I) can be further worked up in various ways to give compounds which also display pharmacological effectiveness, especially anti-allergic and anti-hypertensive effectiveness. Therefore, they are also valuable intermediates for the preparation of pharmacologically-effective materials.
The new compounds (I) according to the present invention can be prepared in various ways. Thus, for example:
(a) a 1,2-dihydroquinolin-2-one of the general formula: ##STR3## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 have the same meanings as above, is reacted with a piperazine derivative of the general formula: ##STR4## wherein n, A and R.sub.4 have the same meanings as above and X is a reactive residue; or
(b) a 1,2-dihydroquinolin-2-one of the general formula: ##STR5## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and n have the same meanings as above and X' is a reactive residue, is reacted with a piperazine derivative of the general formula: ##STR6## wherein A and R.sub.4 have the same meanings as above, and, when R.sub.1 is a hydrogen atom in the product obtained, the product is, if desired, subsequently N-alkylated and, if desired, a compound obtained of general formula (I) is converted into a pharmacologically acceptable salt.
The reactive residues X and X' can be any known group which can be nucleophilically removed. Especially preferred residues of this type include chlorine and bromine atoms, as well as mesyloxy and tosyloxy radicals.
The reactions according to the present invention can be carried out by known methods. Thus, for example, in the case of process (a), the hydroxy-1,2dihydroquinolin-2-one of general formula (II) is condensed in an appropriate solvent, such as ethanol, isopropanol or preferably ethoxyethanol, with the piperazine of general formula (III) at an elevated temperature, in the presence of an alkali alcoholate. As solvent, there can also be used dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulphoxide or hexametapol.
In the case of process (b), the reaction of a dihydroquinolin-2-one of general formula (IV) with a piperazine of general formula (V) is carried out in one of the above-mentioned solvents, advantageously with the addition of a tertiary amine, such as triethylamine, or of a Huenig base or of a strongly basic ion exchanger but can also be carried out with, for example, potassium tert.-butylate in dimethyl sulphoxide.
The starting materials of general formula (II), (III), (IV) and (V) are either known from the literature or can be prepared analogously to the processes known from the literature.
The pharmacologically acceptable salts are obtained in the conventional manner, for example by neutralization of the compounds of general formula (I) with non-toxic inorganic or organic acids, for example hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrobromic acid, acetic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, malic acid, salicylic acid, malonic acid, maleic acid or succinic acid.
For the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions, the compounds of general formula (I) are mixed in the usual way with appropriate pharmaceutical carrier substances and aroma, flavoring and coloring materials and formed, for example, into tablets or dragees or, with the addition of appropriate adjuvants, suspended or dissolved in water or in an oil, for example olive oil.
The compounds of general formula (I) can be administered orally and parenterally in liquid or solid form. As injection medium, it is preferred to use water which contains the stabilizing agents, solubilizing agents and/or buffers conventionally used for injection solutions. Additives of this type include, for example, tartrate and borate buffers, ethanol, dimethyl sulphoxide, complex formers (such as ethylendiamine-tetraacetic acid), high molecular weight polymers (such as liquid polyethylene oxide) for viscosity regulation and polyethylene derivatives of sorbitol anhydrides.
Solid carrier materials which can be used include, for example, starch, lactose, mannitol, methyl cellulose, talc, highly dispersed silicic acid and high molecular weight polymers (such as polyethylene glycol).
Compositions suitable for oral administration can, if desired, contain flavoring and/or sweetening agents. For topical administration, the compounds (I) according to the present invention can also be used in the form of powders or salves, for which purpose they are mixed with, for example, powdered, physiologically compatible diluents or conventional salve bases.
Apart from the compounds mentioned in the specific examples, the following compounds are also preferred according to the present invention:
4-methyl-6-{2-[4-(4-chlorobenzyl)-piperazin-1-yl]-ethoxy}-2oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline;
4-methyl-8-{3-[4-(4-chlorobenzyl)-piperazin-1-yl]-propoxy}-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline; and

With respect to the proper dosage and methods of application for the instant compounds, these are comparable to those for the commercially known compound "Fragivix", i.e. 2-ethyl-3-(4'-hydroxybenzoyl)-benzo-furan. They can also be administered per os. The instant compounds make possible comprehensive therapy of acute as well as chronic phlebological and capillary afflications as well as varicose syndromes. The instant compounds retard reactions leading to edemas and swellings, including those of allergic origin.
The typical daily dosage of 10 to 300 mg results in reducing or eliminating the above afflications, commonly within some days. A preferred dosage is 30-100 mg.
The superior activity of the novel compounds is shown by comparing the inhibition of the passive cutaneous anaphylactic reaction in rats produced by injection of serum containing reaginic antibodies to egg albunin. Diethylcarbamazin, i.e. 1-diethylcarbamoyl-4-methylpiperazine, was used as a comparison compound. Specifically, tests were run as follows:
Serum containing reaginic (IgE-like) antibody to egg albumin was prepared by injecting rats intramuscularly with 0.1 ml of a solution of the antigen (10 mg/ml) in saline together with 0.5 ml of Bordetella pertussis vaccine (Behring; 2.times.10.sup.10 organisms/ml). 9-14 Days later the animals were bled from the abdominal aorta; the serum was pooled and stored at -20.degree. C. until required. The titer of the serum, i.e. the highest dilution inducing passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) in the rat following a 48-hour latent period, was between 1:8 and 1:32. For use in these experiments the serum was diluted 1:24. The reaginic nature of the antibody was demonstrated by its ability to induce PCA with a latent period in excess of 7 days and also by abolition of its PCA activity by heating it at 56.degree. C. for 1 hour.
The animals were anesthetized with 2,2-dichloro-1,1-difluoroethyl-methyl ether, sold under the trademark Penthrane, and were sensitized by injecting 0.1 ml of the antiserum into the shaved abdominal flanks. After 48 hours for reaginic PCA, the animals were given an intravenous injection of 1 ml of saline solution containing 0.5% by weight of egg albumin and 0.25% by weight of Evans blue.
After having killed and exsanguinated the animals, the size in square millimeters and the intensity, in arbitrary scores, of the resulting blue spot were determined. The product of these two parameters was used to determine the degree of the reaction and the degree of reaction with no active material was taken as the standard against which to measure % inhibition of the anaphylactic reaction.
6 Animals were used per dose level and for control.
The test materials was administered per os immediately before the antigen. The volume of the application was varied to give the indicated dosage of active material. The results obtained were as follows:

These pharmacological data show that the novel compounds exert a far stronger antianaphylactoid activity than Diethylcarbamazin.
It will be appreciated that the instant specification and examples are set forth by way of illustration and not limitation, and that various modifications and changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
