Description

This invention relates to novel 2-(1-piperazinyl)-4-phenylcycloalkanopyridine derivatives having psychotropic activity, processes for the production thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition containing the said compound as an active ingredient.
PRIOR ART
There have hitherto been known some 2-(1-piperazinyl)-4-arylpyridine derivatives and related compounds which have pharmacological activities. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,469,696 [Japanese First Publication (Kokai) No. 58-963] discloses 2-(1-piperazinyl)-4-arylpyridine derivatives, however, the compounds disclosed therein are merely the compounds having an aryl group or a 2-furyl group at 5-position of pyridine ring, structure of which is completely different from that of the compounds of the present invention. Besides, the pharmacological activity of these compounds disclosed in the above reference is lipid absorption-inhibitory action which is also completely different from that of the compounds of the present invention. It is clear from the experiments by the present inventors, whereby the 4,5-bis-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-methyl-2-(4-phenyl-1-piperazinyl)pyridine disclosed in the above mentioned U.S. patent did not show any psychotropic activity, that is, it shows no inhibitory effect on an apomorphine-induced vomiting, which can be an index for anti-psychotic drug and no binding property to dopamine (D.sub.2) and serotonin (S.sub.2) receptors.
Moreover, a pyridine derivative having a piperazinyl group and a phenyl group at 2-position and 4-position of pyridine ring thereof respectively, 2-[4-(4-methylbenzyl)-1-piperazinyl]-4-phenylpyridine has been reported to have a weak activity as an anti-psychotic drug or as a neuroleptic drug, [cf: U.S. Pat. No. 4,831,034, Japanese First Publication (Kokai) No. 63-48267]. However, the structure of this compound is obviously different from that of the compounds of the present invention in respect to that this compound does not form the condensed ring between 5- and 6-positions of pyridine ring.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present inventors have extensively searched for compounds having an activity on the central nervous system and have found that novel 2-(1-piperazinyl)-4-phenylcycloalkanopyridine derivatives of the formula (I) disclosed hereinafter have excellent psychotropic activity and are useful as an anti-psychotic drug or an anti-anxiety drug and further as a drug for the treatment of cerebral insufficiency diseases.
An object of the invention is to provide novel 2-(1-piperazinyl)-4-phenylcycloalkanopyridine derivatives having excellent psychotropic activity. Another object of the invention is to provide processes for the production of these compounds. A further object of the invention is to provide a pharmaceutical composition being useful as an anti-psychotic or anti-anxiety drug etc. containing said compound as an active ingredient. These and other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the following description.

Examples of the leaving atom or group are halogen atoms, lower alkythio groups (e.g. methylthio, ethylthio, propylthio, butylthio, etc.), arylsulfonyloxy groups (e.g. benzenesulfonyloxy, p-toluenesulfonyloxy, etc.), and alkylsulfonyloxy groups (e.g. methanesulfonyloxy, etc.).
The reaction of the compound of the formula (II) and the compound of the formula (III) is carried out in an appropriate solvent or without using any solvent under atmospheric pressure or under pressure. Suitable examples of the solvent are aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g. toluene, xylene, etc.), ketones (e.g. methyl ethyl ketone, etc.), ethers (e.g. dioxane, diglyme, etc.), alcohols (e.g. ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, butanol, etc.), N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide. The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a basic substance. Suitable examples of the basic substance are alkali metal carbonates (e.g. sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, etc.), alkali metal hydrogen carbonates (e.g. sodium hydrogen carbonate, potassium hydrogen carbonate, etc.), tertiary amines (e.g. triethylamine, etc.), but an excess amount of the compound of the formula (III) may be used instead of using the basic substance. When the compound of the formula (III) is in the form of a hydrate, the hydrate may be used. The reaction temperature is usually in the range of 40.degree. to 200.degree. C. The starting compound (II) can be prepared in the procedure as described in Reference Examples 1 to 94 hereinafter or in a similar process.

The compounds of the formula (I-4) wherein R.sup.14 is benzyloxycarbonyl can alternatively be prepared by a conventional process from a compound of the formula (I) wherein R.sup.14 is methyl or benzyl having optionally a substituent.
(3) Process C
The compounds of the formula (I) wherein R.sup.1 is a hydrogen atom can also be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula (I-5): ##STR9## wherein R.sup.15 is methyl or unsubstituted or substituted benzyl (the substituent on the phenyl ring of the benzyl is a member selected from lower alkyl, lower alkoxy and halogen atoms), and R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, R.sup.7, R.sup.8, m and n are as defined above, with ethyl chlorocarbonate or 1-chloroethyl chlorocarbonate to give a compound of the formula (I-6): ##STR10## wherein R.sup.16 is ethoxycarbonyl, 1-chloroethoxycarbonyl, and R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, R.sup.7, R.sup.8, m and n are as defined above, or a compound of the formula (I-7): ##STR11## wherein R.sup.17 is acyl, and R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, R.sup.7, R.sup.8, m and n are as defined above, followed by hydrolysis of the compound of the formula (I-6) or (I-7).

The hydrolysis of the compound of the formula (I-6) wherein R.sup.16 is 1-chloroethoxycarbonyl is usually carried out by heating the compound in methanol. The compounds of the formulae (I-5) and (I-7) can be prepared by the same process as the above-mentioned Process A.
(4) Process D
The compound of the formula (I) wherein R.sup.1 is a group other than a hydrogen atom can be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula (I-8): ##STR12## wherein R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, R.sup.7, R.sup.8, m and n are as defined above, with a compound of the formula (IV):

The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a basic substance. The basic substance includes the same substances as used in the above Process A. The reaction temperature is usually in the range of 30.degree. to 150.degree. C. The compounds of the formula (I-8) can be prepared by the same processes as the above-mentioned Processes A to C.
When the compounds of the formula (I) prepared by the Processes A and D have a hydroxyl group in the structure thereof, they can be converted into corresponding ester derivatives or ether derivatives by reacting the compound with an appropriate acylating agent or a lower alkylating agent. These reactions are usually carried out by a conventional method.
The compounds of the formula (I) prepared by the above mentioned Processes can be isolated and purified from the reaction mixture by a conventional method.
The compounds of the formula (I) of the present invention are obtained in the form of a free base or a salt or a hydrate depending on the kinds of the starting compound, the kinds of reaction, the reaction conditions, and the like.

EXPERIMENT 3
In Vitro Binding Property to Dopamine (D.sub.2), Serotonin (S.sub.1, S.sub.2) and Adrenaline (.alpha..sub.1) Receptors:
Dopamine (D.sub.2), serotonin (S.sub.1, S.sub.2) and adrenaline (.alpha..sub.1) receptor binding assays were carried out according to the methods of I. Creese et al. [Eur. J. Pharmacol., 46, 377 (1977), S. J. Peroutka et al. [Mol. Pharmacol. 16, 687 (1979)], J. E. Leysen et al. [Mol. Pharmacol., 21, 301 (1982)] and D. C. U'Prichard et al. [Mol. Pharmacol., 13, 454 (1977)], respectively.
Crude synaptosome fractions were prepared from some brain regions in rats for receptor sources. Radioactive ligands used were [.sup.3 H] spiperone (D.sub.2), [.sup.3 H] serotonin (S.sub.1), [.sup.3 H] ketanserin (S.sub.2) and [.sup.3 H] WB-4101 (.alpha..sub.1). The binding assay was performed by incubating aliquots of synaptosome fraction in buffer solution (final volume: 1 ml) containing a [.sup.3 H] labelled ligand and a test compound. The assay was terminated by rapid filtration through Whatman GF/B glass fiber filters attached to a cell-harvester (Brandel) and radioactivity on the filters was counted in a Packard Triscarb scintillation counter. Specific binding was calculated as a difference between amounts of radioactivity in the presence and absence of an unlabelled ligand [spiperone (D.sub.2), serotonin (S.sub.1), methysergide (S.sub.2) and prazosin (.alpha..sub.1)]. The IC.sub.50 value of the test compounds (concentration causing 50% inhibition of [.sup.3 H] ligand specific binding) was determined by probit analysis. The results are shown in Table 3.

EXPERIMENT 4
Increasing Effect on Concentration of Brain Monoamine Metabolites
A group of 5 male mice (Std-ddy strain, 25-30 g) was used for examining effect of the test compounds on concentration of brain monoamine metabolites. It is generally accepted that an increase in each monoamine is mainly caused by each monoamine receptor blockade.
Mice were killed by decapitation 2 hours after treatment with the test compounds. Brains were quickly taken out, homogenized in 1N formic acid-acetone solution, and centrifuged in a refrigerated ultracentrifuge. The supernatant was evaporated by blowing with N.sub.2 gas. Then, the residue was again resolved in 0.01 N acetic acid, and served for determining concentration of dopamine metabolites, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA), a norepinephrine metabolite, 3-methyl-4-hydroxyphenylethylene glycol (MOPEG), and a serotonin metabolite, 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (5-HIAA) concentrations by HPLC with electrochemical detection. The effect of the test compounds on concentration of each monoamine metabolite is shown as % of control (level of non-dosed animals=100) in Table 4.

EXPERIMENT 5
Improving Effect on Scopolamine-induced Deficit of Spontaneous Alternation Behavior
A group of 15-25 male mice (Std-ddY strain, 22-28 g) was used for evaluating effect of the test compounds on scopolamine-induced deficit of spontaneous alternation in a T-maze, which is a known animal model of memory impairment due to hypofunction of the cholinergic nervous system. The T-maze used consists of a stem and two arms which are 25 cm long, 5 cm wide and 10 cm high. The first 10 cm of the stem and last 10 cm of each arm are divided by sliding doors into start and goal boxes.
A test compound and scopolamine hydrobromide (1 mg/kg) were intraperitoneally administered to each mouse, and after 30 minutes a test of spontaneous alternation task in the T-maze was continuously repeated for 8 trials. Commonly, naive mice alternate each (right and left) goal box in turn, but scopolamine-treated animals tend to enter the same goal box repeatedly. The effect of the test compounds was expressed as % improvement (complete improvement to the alternation level of non-dosed mice=100%). The results are shown in Table 5.

EXPERIMENT 6
Improving Effect on Cycloheximide-induced Amnesia of Passive Avoidance Response
Anti-amnesic effect of the test compounds was examined using mice given cycloheximide, which is a known amnesia-inducing agent.
A group of 15-20 male mice (Std-ddY strain, 27-33 g) was subjected to training and retention trials for a passive avoidance task in a step-down apparatus (30.times.30.times.50 cm) with a grid floor and a wooden platform (4.times.4.times.4 cm) in a center of the floor. In the training trial, each mouse was first placed on the platform. When the mouse stepped down on the grid floor, an electric shock (1 Hz, 0.5 sec, 60 VDC) was delivered to the feet for 15 seconds. Immediately after the training trial, cycloheximide (60 mg/kg, s.c.) and a test compound (i.p.) were administered. The retention trial was carried out 24 hours thereafter, the time from placing again each mouse placed on the platform until stepping down on the grid floor (step-down latency) was measured. The step-down latency in the retention trial was markedly shortened by treatment of cycloheximide (amnesia). The effect of test compounds was assessed by % improvement (complete improvement to the latency level of non-dosed animals=100%). The results are shown in Table 6.
