Process for their production, pharmaceutical preparations containing these compounds as well as the new starting materials and intermediate products and processes for their production,
Among the heteroaryl radicals possible according to Formula Ia, the 3-thienyl, 3-furyl and 3-pyrrole radicals are preferred.
As heteroaryl radical of Formula Ib, according to the invention the 3-pyridyl or 4-pyridyl, the 5-pyrimidine, 4-pyridazine or pyrazine radicals are especially suitable.
As cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl or aryl radical lc, the cyclohexyl, cyclohex-1-enyl, cyclohex-2-enyl-, cyclohex-3-enyl-, as well as the phenyl radical are to be especially emphasized.
Alkenyl radical Id preferably is to exhibit up to 3 double bonds.
As halogen substituents that are possible in the heteroaryl radical of Formula Ia, a chlorine or bromine atom are especially to be named.
If the heteroaryl radical of Formula Ia is alkyl substituted, then monosubstitution is preferred.
Cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl or aryl radical Ic can be substituted by one or two chlorine and/or bromine atom(s). The radicals named can also be substituted by one or two, optionally protected hydroxy and/or alkoxy radicals with 1 to 8 carbon atoms.
The compounds of general Formula I have a strong affinity for the gestagen receptor, without themselves developing gestagen activity. They are competitive antagonists of the progesterone (antigestagens); since they displace from the receptor the progesterone necessary for maintaining pregnancy, they are suitable for triggering abortions and for inducing birth.
In addition to the named indications, the compounds according to the invention can also be used for treatment of endometriosis, dysmenorrhea and hormone-associated tumors, such as e.g., breast cancer and durosarcoma.
To characterize the antigestagen effect of the compounds according to the invention, the abortive effectiveness was determined. The tests were performed on female rats with a weight of about 200 g. After successful mating, the start of pregnancy was checked by detection of sperm in vaginal smears. The day of the sperm detection counts at day 1 of pregnancy (=d 1 p.c.).
The treatment of the animals with the substance to be tested in each case or with the solvent was performed on d. 5 to d. 7 p.c.
On d. 9 p.c., the animals were killed and the uteri were examined for nidations and absorptive points. The lack of nidations was considered an abortion.

To characterize the antiglucocorticoid effect, the influence of the substances according to the invention on tyrosineaminotransferase was determined. The test system is based on a measurement of the activity of the liver enzyme tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) in cultures of RHC (rat hepatoma cells). The enzyme catalyzes the first step in the metabolization of tyrosine and can be induced in the liver as well as in hepatoma cells by glucocorticoids. The activity is easily measured in crude extracts (Granner and Tomkins, (1970) Meth. Enzymol. 15, 533). The enzyme converts the amino group of tyrosine into 2-oxoglutaric acid. In doing so, glutamic acid and p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate are produced. In alkaline solution, from p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate there is formed the more stable p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, whose absorption is measured at 331 nm. The TAT activity in RHC cells shows a dose-dependent induction with cortisol (max. act. at 10.sup.-6 M) or dexamethasone (max. act. at 10.sup.-7 M). The activity can be stimulated above the basal value by a factor of 4-6. Simultaneous treatment with corticoid and antiglucocorticoid leads to a reduction of the TAT activity.
Compounds A and E according to the invention show, in this test, about 1%, compounds F and G about 2%, compound D about 5% and compound B about 100% of the activity of 11beta-[4-dimethylaminophenyl)-17beta-hydroxy-17alpha-(prop-1-inyl)-4,9-estradien-3-one RU 486 [B], a substance that is to be considered standard (7th Int. Congress of Endocrinology Jul. 1-7, 1984, Quebec City, Canada: Excerpts Medica, Amsterdam-Oxford-Princeton).
The compounds according to the invention of general formula I can be used in the form of pharmaceutical preparations. The production of the preparations is performed according to galenic methods known in the art by mixing with organic or inorganic, inert carrier material that is suitable for enteral, percutaneous or parenteral administration.
The dosage of the compounds according to the invention for the indications given is between 1 and 1,000 mg daily.
The 13-alkyl-11beta-phenylgonanes of general formula I, in which the 11beta-phenyl radical in 4 position carries the substituents according to the invention, are produced according to the process according to claim 11.
In doing so, a compound of general formula II ##STR7## in which K means a blocked keto group in the form of ketal, thioketal, oxime or methyloxime, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the above-mentioned meaning and R.sup.3' and R.sup.4' have the same meaning as R.sup.3 or R.sup.4, and hydroxy groups optionally present in R.sup.3 and hydroxy and/or acyl groups optionally present in R.sup.4 are protected, with the effect of a dehydration agent that is capable of releasing the protected function(s), is subjected to water separation with formation of 4(5) double bonds, is again protected in cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl or aryl radical Id, alkylthio and/or dialkylamino radicals optionally present in radical Id are oxidized optionally to the corresponding sulfoxide, Sulfone and/or N-oxide and then reacted optionally with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in the presence of tertiary amines at temperatures between -20.degree. C. and +40.degree. C.
The acidic treatment is performed in a way known in the art in that the compound of Formula II, which contains at least two protective groups, is dissolved in a solvent miscible with water such as aqueous methanol, ethanol or acetone and catalytic amounts of mineral or sulfonic acid such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, perchloric acid or p-toluenesulfonic acid, or an organic acid, such as acetic acid, are left to act on the solution until water is separated and protective groups are removed. The reaction that occurs at temperatures of 0.degree.-100.degree. C., can also be performed with an acidic ion exchanger. The course of the reaction can be followed with analytical methods, for example by samples taken by thin film chromatography.
To produce the compounds of general Formula II, there exist various possibilities according to the invention.
In one variant, starting from a compound of general Formula III ##STR8## the latter is reacted, according to the usual processes of the C.sub.17 side chain build-up by introduction of substituents R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 by nucleophilic addition to the C.sub.17 ketone and subsequent reactions ("Teipenoids and Steroids", Specialist Periodical Report, The Chemical Society, London, Vol. 1-12) into a compound of general Formula IV ##STR9##
Access to the 13alpha-methyl-or 13alpha-ethyl series (R.sub.2 is in alpha position) is performed--such described, e.g., in European patent application 0259 248--by irradiation of intermediate products of general Formula III (Tetrahedron Letters 26., 2069 (1985), R.sub.2 is in beta position) with ultraviolet light.
While the nucleophilic addition to the 17-ketone of the 13beta-alkyl series yields only adducts with the hydroxy group in beta position and the entering group in the alpha position to the five-membered ring, the addition to the corresponding 13-epi-17-ketone occurs generally with the formation of both possible isomeric forms at C-17 which, however, are easily separated by chromatography or fractionated crystallization. In many cases, both isomers are pharmacologically effective, even if differences can exist in the strength of the effect.
The nucleophilic addition of HC.ident.CX in which X means hydrogen, alkyl with 1-4 C atoms or halogen, is performed with the aid of a compound of general formula MC.ident.CX, in which X has the meaning indicated above and M represents an alkaline metal.
The metallo-organic compound can also be formed in situ and brought to reaction with the 17-ketone. Thus, for example there can be left to react on the 17-ketone, in a suitable solvent, acetylene and an alkaline metal, in particular potassium, sodium or lithium, in the presence of an alcohol or in the presence of ammonia. The alkaline metal can also be used in the form of, for example, methyl or butyl lithium. As solvents, dialkylether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxan, benzene and toluene are suitable in particular.
To produce the 17-chloroethinyl compound, the metallo-organic chloroethinyl compound is formed in situ from 1,1-dichloroethylene and an ethereal alkaline metal solution, such as for example methyl or butyl lithium solution and is reacted with the 17-ketone in solvents, such as tetrahydrofuran or diethylether.
The 17-ethinyl-17-hydroxy compounds can be hydrated in alcoholic solution with mercury salt catalysis into the 17-acetyl-17-hydroxy compounds (Chem. Ber. [Chemical Reports] 111, (1978), 3086-3093).
The introduction of 3-hydroxypropine, propene or propane into the 17 position is performed by reaction of the 17-ketone with metallized derivatives of propargyl alcohol, for example with 1-lithium-3-tetrahydropyran-2'-yloxy-propine-1 into the 17-(3-hydroxy-1-propinyl)-17-hydroxy compounds, which can then be hydrogenated into the 17-(3-hydroxypropyl or 3-hydroxypropenyl)-17-hydroxy compounds. The hydrogenation must be performed under conditions that guarantee exclusively attack on the C--C triple bond, without saturating the optionally present tetrasubstituted 9(10) double bond. This succeeds, for example, with hydrogenation at room temperature and normal pressure in solvents such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, tetrahydrofuran (THF) or acetic ester with the addition of noble metal catalysts such as platinum or palladium.
The introduction of the homologs hydroxyalkyne, hydroxyalkene and hydroxyalkane groups is performed in a suitable way with homologs of propargyl alcohol.
The compound with the Z configured double bond in the hydroxypropenyl group is produced by hydrogenation of the acetylenic triple bond with a deactivated noble metal catalyst (J. Fried, J. A. Edwards: Organic Reactions in Steroid Chemistry, Van Nostrand Reinhold Company 1972, page 134 and H. O. House: Modern Synthetic Reactions 1972, page 19). As deactivated noble metal catalysts, for example 10% palladium on barium sulfate in the presence of an amine or 5% palladium on calcium carbonate with the addition of lead(II) acetate are suitable. The hydrogenation is interrupted after the absorption of an equivalent hydrogen.
The compound with the E-configured double bond in the hydroxypropenyl group is produced by reduction of the acetylenic triple bond in a way known in the art. In the literature there are described a whole series of methods for converting alkynes into trans-olefins, for example the reduction with sodium in liquid ammonia (J. Am. Chem. Soc, 63 (1941) 216), with sodium amide in liquid ammonia (J. Chem. Soc., 1955, 3558), with lithium in low molecular amines (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 77 (1955) 3378), with boranes (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 93 (1971) 3395) and 94 (1971 (6560), with diisobutylaluminum hydride and methyllithium (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 89 (1967) 5085) and in particular with lithium aluminum hydride/alcoholate (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 89 (1967) 4245). Another possibility is the reduction of the triple bond with chromium(II)-sulfate in the presence of water or dimethylformamide in a slightly acidic environment (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 85 (1964) 4358) as well as generally the reduction by the action of transition metal compounds with alternation in the oxidation step.
If end products of Formula I are desired with R.sub.3 /R.sub.4 in the meaning of ##STR10## then 17-(3-hydroxypropyl) compound is oxidized in a way known in the art, for example with Jones reagent, manganese dioxide, pyridinium dichromate, pyridinium chlorochromate, chromic acid-pyridine or with the Fetizon reagent silver carbonate/celite (Compt. Rend. 257 (1968) 900).
To introduce the grouping ##STR11## the 17 ketone is converted with tosylmethylisocyanide into the 17-nitrile compound, from the 17-nitrile compound there is obtained, with methyllithium or methylmagnesium bromide, the 17-acetyl compound which, after enolization with K-tert.-butylate in tetrahydrofuran and reaction with methyl iodide, yields the desired grouping in 17 position.
The formation of the 17-cyanomethyl side chain is performed in a way known in the art from the 17-ketone, for example by the 17-spiro epoxide and cleavage of the spiro epoxide with HCH according to Z. Chem. 15, (1978) 259-260.
The introduction of the 17-hydroxyacetyl side chain is also performed according to methods known in the art, for example according to the methods described in J. Org. Chem. 47, (1982), 2993-2995.
Free hydroxy groups in the 17 position can be esterified or etherified in a way known in the art.
The compounds of general formula IV are then reacted, by Grignard addition of an aryl Grignard compound that already carries in the 4 position the desired substituent R.sup.1, into a compound of general Formula II that is further processed in the way already indicated.
But according to the invention it is also possible to react a compound of general formula IV with a compound of the type ##STR12## in which W means MgX (X=Br, I) or preferably Li (S. H. Lee, R. N. Hanson and D. E. Seitz, Tetrahedron Letters 25, 1751 (1984) and m 1,2,3,4, preferably 1 or 4, with generation of a compound of general formula V ##STR13## in which K, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 have the meaning already indicated (K Torssell, J. Goldman, T. E. Petersen: Liebigs Ann. Chem. 1973, 231-240).
From such a compound, the compound of general formula II is obtained in a Pd (O) catalyzed reaction in the presence of an R.sup.1 Br compound, in which R.sup.1 is the substituent R.sup.1 desired in the end product.
If a compound of general formula II is to be produced in which substituent R.sup.2 is exclusively in alpha position, one can proceed so that a compound of general formula IV (R.sup.2 =alpha position) is brought to reaction with a Grignard adduct of formula ##STR14## and the reaction product of general formula VI ##STR15## in which K, R.sup.2, R.sup.3' and R.sup.4' have the meaning indicated above is further reacted to introduce the R.sup.1 substituent into the 4 position of the 11beta configured phenyl ring in the presence of catalytic amounts of Pd(O) with a tin organic compound of general formula R.sup.1 Sn(C.sub.m H.sub.2m+1).sub.3 (J. K. Stille. Angew. Chem. [Applied Chemistry] 96 (1986) 504-519) into the corresponding compound of general formula II ##STR16##
Instead of the variant just mentioned, it is also possible to react a compound of general formula VI, first palladium(O) catalyzed with a hexaalkyldistannane [C.sub.m H.sub.2m+1).sub.3 Sn].sub.2 (m=1,2,3,4, preferably 1 or 4) into a compound of general formula V and to further process the latter--as already indicated--into a compound of general formula II (Y. Yamamoto, Y. Azuma, H. Mitoh, Communications, pages 564-565, 1986, T. J. Bailey, Tet. Let., 27, pages 4407-4410, 1986.
The intermediate products of general formulas III to VI occurring according to claim 12 during the course of possible synthesis routes to the initial products of general formula II can all be isolated in substance and also count as part of the object of this invention.
Common to all process variants described above is the fact that into the C17-keto compound of general Formula III there are first introduced, by nucleophilic addition, the precursors R.sup.3', R.sup.4' of the R.sup.s and R.sup.4 substituents or these two substituents themselves, with formation of a compound of general Formula IV and that only afterwards is the 11beta-phenyl radical with the corresponding substitution pattern established in the 4 position.
In contrast to this, according to the invention the synthesis of the compounds of general formula I-can also be started with a 13beta-alkyl-5,10-epoxide of general Formula VII ##STR17## in which K and R.sup.2 have the meaning indicated further above, in that into the latter there is first introduced a phenyl radical that exhibits, in the 4 position, the labile tin trialkyl group (alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4), preferably C.sub.1 or C.sub.4) by Grignard addition of a suitable 4-(trialkylstannyl)-aryl Grignard compound or alkylation with a 4-(trialkylstannyl)-aryllithium compound with formation of a compound of general formula VIII From a compound of general formula VIII, by coupling, which is transition metal-catalyzed, preferably Pd(O)-catalyzed, with a compound R.sup.1 -Y(Y-Br, I) there is reached a compound of general formula IX ##STR18## next by oxidation of the 17beta-OH function and optionally subsequent irradiation with ultraviolet light (conversion of the beta-alkyl into a 13alpha alkyl group) there is reached a compound of general formula X ##STR19## in which the substituents have the meanings already indicated and R.sup.2 can be in alpha as well as beta position, into which then the R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 substituents are introduced in the way already described by nucleophilic addition and they are separated from the protective groups present by acidic treatment with the release of a compound according to the invention of general formula I.
The sequence of the reaction steps described here, running through the compounds of formulas IX and X, starting from a compound of formula VIII can, starting from the same compound VIII, also be switched, in that first the 17beta-OH is oxidized into the corresponding 17-keto function, next optionally it is irradiated with ultraviolet light and then, by transition metal-catalyzed, preferably Pd(O)-catalyzed coupling with a compound R.sup.1 -Y (Y=Br, I), the intermediate compound already described above of general formula X is generated, which is then reacted--also as already described--into a compound of formula I. In doing so, a compound of general formula XI is passed through ##STR20##
In a compound of general formula (XI) nucleophilic addition can also be first performed to the C-17 atom to establish the radicals R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 or their precursors R.sup.3' and R.sup.4' with formation of a compound of general formula V which then, as already indicated, is further to be processed.
The compounds of general formulas VIII to XI, just as those of formulas III to VI, can also be isolated in substance and belong to the object of this invention.
The following representative examples serve to explain the invention.
Without further elaboration, it is believed that one skilled in the art can, using the preceding description, utilize the present invention to its fullest extent. The following preferred specific embodiments are, therefore, to be construed as merely illustrative, and not limitative of the remainder of the disclosure in any way whatsoever.
