This application is a 371 of PCT/JP95/01606 filed Aug. 11, 1995.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to intermediates for preparing optical active 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives useful as preventive and therapeutic agents for ischemic heart diseases and hypertension. More particularly, the present invention relates to novel 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives represented by the general formula (I) below ##STR2## (wherein the symbols have the same meanings as defined below) and salts thereof, which are substrates for preparing optical active 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives by biochemical reactions by using microorganisms and enzymes as well as intermediates of the substrates, and to novel optical active 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives represented by the general formula (II) ##STR3## (wherein the symbols have the same meanings as defined below) and salts thereof.
BACKGROUND ART
Those 1,4-dihydropyridine compounds having two different carboxylic acid ester groups at the 3- and 5-positions, respectively, of the dihydropyridine ring have an asymmetric carbon atom at the 4-position of the dihydropyridine ring and, hence, provide two kinds of optical isomers. Recent research on the biological effects of these compounds has reported that there are differences between the optical isomers in pharmacological activity, in vivo kinetics, safety and so on �K. Tamazawa et al., J. Med. Chem., Vol. 29, 2504 (1986)!.
When the compounds having an asymmetric carbon atom are used as a drug, the idea of administering only one of the isomers that is more preferrable as a drug is becoming generally accepted in order not to give an unnecessary load to the living organism. From this viewpoint, investigation has been made for various methods for preparing optical active 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives.
Generally known methods for synthesizing optical acitve 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives include the method using (4R)-1,4-dihydropyridinecarboxylic acid monoester as an intermediate, into which a desired ester radical is introduced �A. Ashimori et al., Chem. Pharm. Bull., Vol. 39, 18 (1991)!.
As the method for preparing the optical active intermediates, (4R)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid monoesters, there are known the chemical mehtod by Shibanuma et al. �Chem. Pharm. Bull. Vol. 28, 2809 (1980)! and the enzymatic methods by Achiwa et al. �Tetrahedron Letter, 32, 5805 (1991)! and by Charles J. Sih et al. �Tetrahedron Letter, 32, 3465 (1991)!.
Among these methods, the enzymatic methods are excellent manufacturing methods since they asymmetrically hydrolyze prochiral 1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid diesters so that the other of the isomers, that is unusable and wasted in the chemical method, does not have to be wasted.
However, the enzymatic methods require that the reaction should proceed in an aqueous medium due to their nature. Therefore, the conventional methods, in which highly hydrophobic 1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid diester is used as a substrate, have failed to proceed the reaction at increased substrate concentrations in spite of use of an auxiliary solvent (acetone, methanol, dimethyl sulfoxide, diemthylformamide and so on) so that only a limited reaction efficiency has been obtained.
Accordingly, there has been a keen demand for the development of an efficient method for preparing an optical active isomer, i.e., (4R)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid monoester, using a substrate which has high polarity and is water-soluble.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
As a result of intensive investigation with a view to solving the above-described problems, the present inventors have discovered highly water-soluble substrates suitable for preparing (4R)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid monoester derivatives by using microorganisms or enzymes, and thus completed the present invention.

�Method for Preparing Compound (I)!
The compounds represented by the general formula (I) can be prepared by combinations of methods which are known per se.
The compounds represented by the general formula (I) can be prepared, for example, according to Reaction Scheme-1 below.
In the below reaction scheme, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 represent a combination of a hydrogen atom and a 2-carboxybenzoyl group, or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 taken together represent a phthaloyl group. The other symbols have the same meanings as defined above.
The reaction scheme will be described briefly below.
First, an ethanol amine derivative (III) with its amino group(s) being protected is reacted with a diketene (IV) to give an acetoacetic acid ester derivative (V) (step a). Then, the acetoacetic acid ester derivative (V) and ammonia (VI) are reacted to form a .beta.-aminocrotonic acid ester derivative (VII) (step b). Also, the acetoacetic acid ester derivative (V) and a benzaldehyde derivative (VIII) are condensed to produce an .alpha.-benzylidene-.beta.-ketoester derivative (IX) (step c). Next, the .beta.-aminocrotonic acid ester derivative (VII) and the .alpha.-benzylidene-.beta.-ketoester derivative (IX) are condensed by heating (step d) to produce the target compound. ##STR8##
The step a can be performed by dropwise adding a diketene (IV) to a solution of an ethanolamine derivative (III) in an inert solvent (tetrahydrofuran (THF) or the like) in the presence of a base (triethylamine or the like) and stirring the resulting mixture for 1 to 24 hours at a temperature being in the range of from 0.degree. to 100.degree. C.
The step b can be carried out by adding an ammonium salt which is easy to handle (ammonium carbonate or the like) to a solution of acetoacetic ester derivative (V) in an inert solvent (ethanol or the like) and stirring the resulting mixture at 15.degree. to 60.degree. C. for 1 to 24 hours.
The step c can be performed by adding the benzaldehyde derivative (VIII) to a solution of the acetoacetic acid ester derivative (V) in an inert solvent (dioxane or the like) and heating the resulting mixture at 80.degree. to 110.degree. C. for 2 to 24 hours with stirring.
The step d can be peformed by stirring the .beta.-aminocrotonic acid ester (VII) and the .alpha.-benzylidene-.beta.-ketoester derivative (IX) at 50.degree. to 90.degree. C. for 2 to 24 hours in the presence or absence of inert solvents (dioxane or the like).
Also, the steps b, c and d can be performed at a time. That is, the target compound can be produced in one step by heat-condensing 2 equivalents of acetoacetic ester derivative (V) with ammonia (VI) and benzaldehyde derivative (VIII) (Reaction Scheme-2). ##STR9##
Also, the target compounds can be prepared by the method in which the acetoacetic ester derivative (V), .beta.-aminocrotonic acid ester derivative (VII), and the benzaldehyde derivative (VIII) are heat-condensed (Reaction Scheme-3), or by the method in which the acetoacetic acid ester derivative (V), the .alpha.-benzylidene-.beta.-ketoester derivative (IX), and the ammonia (VI) are heate-condensed (Reaction Scheme-4). ##STR10##
Among the compounds obtained as described above, the compounds (Ia) in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 taken together represent a phthaloyl group can be converted to the compounds represented by the general formula (I) by subjecting the compounds to a hydrolysis reaction. ##STR11## �Metod for Preparing Comound (II)!

The conidia are of poro-type that grow through small holes at the apex of the conidiophore and separated by septa to have a shape of stacked bricks. The bottom of the conidia is round with the pointed apex, and the color is brown.
FI-741 Strain
This strain forms well developed white cotton-like mycelia on a potato dextrose agar medium, the base of the mycelia becoming brown with a progress of cultivation. The conidia are formed in a spherical organ called pycnidium having an opening in the apex. The conidia are relatively long, smooth and not viscous. Upon maturity, they turn brown and have thickened cell walls.
FI-1007 Strain
This strain forms greyish white mycelia on a potato dextrose agar medium, the base of the mycelia becoming slightly pinkish brown with a progress of cultivation. The conidia are of a phialo-type that emerge from the topmost phialide on a conidiophore. The conidiophore mostly does not form forks but the phialide forks often to take an oblong configuration.
Search was made based on the morphological properties described above consulting with The General of Fungi Sporulating in Pure Culture (J. A. von ARX (1970)), which resulted in the identification of FI-4 strain as Alternaria sp., FI-741 as Botryodioplodia sp., FI-1007 as Paecilomyces sp.

It produces no melanine pigment or no other dispersive pigment. The hyphae in the medium develop well without being cut and there are aerial hyphae. On the aerial hyphae are coadunating many conidia which are spirally chained. The surface of the conidia is smooth. The cell wall contains L-diaminopimelic acid. It does not assimilate L-hydroxyproline. It is sensitive to 100.mu.g/ml of oleandomycin. Search was made based on the morphological properties described above consulting with Bergey's Mannual of Systematic Bacteriology Volume 4, which resulted in the identification of A-914 as Streptomyces viridosporus.
