2,6-dialkyl-4-(benzothiazol- or benzoxazol-7-yl)-1,4-dihydropyridines

The invention relates to novel dihydropyridines substituted by heterocycles, processes for their preparation and their use in medicaments, in particular in agents having positive inotropic action.
It is already known that 1,4-dihydropyridines have vasodilating properties and can be used as coronary agents and antihypertensives [compare Brit. Patent 1,173,862 and 1,358,951; DE-OS (German Published Specification) 2,629,892 and 2,752,820]. Furthermore, it is known that 1,4-dihydropyridines cause an inhibition of the contractility of smooth and cardiac muscles and can be employed for the treatment of coronary and vascular disorders [compare Fleckenstein, Ann. Rev. Pharmacol. Toxicol., 17, 149-166 (1977)].
It is moreover known that, in addition to a positive inotropic cardiac action, 3-nitro-dihydropyridines can in general have the disadvantage of an undesired constricting action on the coronary vessels [compare Schramm et al., Nature 303, 535-537 (1983) and DE-OS (German Published Specification) 3,447,169].
With knowledge of the prior art, it was unforeseeable that the compounds according to the invention would have a positive inotropic action on the heart muscle, increasing the contractility and having largely neutral vascular behavior.
The invention relates to new dihydropyridines substituted by heterocycles, of the general formula (I) ##STR4## in which
R.sup.1 and R.sup.5 are identical or different and represent straight-chain or branched alkyl having up to 8 carbon atoms,

The compounds according to the invention exist in stereoisomeric forms which either behave as image and mirror image (enantiomers) or which do not behave as image and mirror image (diastereomers). The invention relates both to the antipodes and the racemic forms as well as the diastereomer mixtures. The racemic forms, like the diastereomers, can be separated into the stereoisomerically uniform components in a known manner (compare E. L. Eliel, Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds, McGraw Hill, 1962).

or
[B] the aldehydes of the general formula (II) are first reacted with the compounds of the general formula (V), if desired with the isolation of the ylidene compounds of the general formula (VII) ##STR13## in which
R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 have the abovementioned meanings, and in a next step reacted with the abovementioned compounds of the general formula (III) in inert solvents, in the presence of ammonia or ammonium salts or directly with enaminocarboxylic acid derivatives of the general formula (VIII) ##STR14## in which

and in the case in which R.sup.4 does not denote hydrogen,
[D] compounds of the general formula (I), in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 have the abovementioned meanings and R.sup.4 represents hydrogen, are reacted with the corresponding alcohols, if appropriate via a reactive acid derivative, in which case by use of the enantiomerically pure carboxylic acid the corresponding enantiomers of the ester are obtained.
The processes according to the invention can be illustrated by the following equation: ##STR16##
Suitable solvents for processes [A], [B] and [C] are all inert organic solvents. These preferably include alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, n- or iso-propanol, ethers such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane or glycol monoethyl ether or glycol diethyl ether, glacial acetic acid, pyridine, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulphoxide, acetonitrile or hexamethylphosphoric triamide or toluene.
Suitable solvents for process [D] are the above-mentioned solvents with the exception of the alcohols.
The reaction temperature for the processes [A], [B], [C] and [D] can be varied within a relatively wide range. In general, the reaction is carried out in a range from 10.degree. C. to 200.degree. C., preferably from 20.degree. C. to 150.degree. C.
The processes can be carried out at normal pressure, and at elevated or reduced pressure (for example from 0.5 to 5 bar), preferably at normal pressure.
When carrying out the processes according to the invention, any desired ratio of the substances participating in the reaction can be used. In general, however, molar amounts of the reactants are used.
Suitable reagents for the activation of the carboxylic acid are the customary reagents such as inorganic halides, for example thionyl chloride, phosphorus trichloride or phosphorus pentachloride, or carbonyldiimidazole, carbodiimides such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide or 1-cyclohexyl-3-[2-(N-methylmorpholino)ethyl]carbodiimide-p-toluenesulphonate or N-hydroxyphthalimide or N-hydroxy-benzotriazole.
Enantiomerically pure forms are obtained, for example, by separating mixtures of diastereomers of the compounds of the general formula (I), in which R.sup.4 represents an optical ester radical, by a customary method, then preparing the enantiomerically pure carboxylic acids and then, if desired, converting them into the enantiomerically pure dihydropyridines by esterification with appropriate alcohols.
Chiral ester radicals which are suitable are all esters of enantiomerically pure alcohols such as, for example, 2-butanol, 1-phenylethanol, lactic acid, lactic acid esters, mandelic acid, mandelic acid esters, 2-aminoalcohols, sugar derivatives and many other enantiomerically pure alcohols.
The diastereomers are in general separated either by fractional crystallization, by column chromatography or by Craig partition. Which is the optimum process must be decided from case to case, and sometimes it is also expedient to use combinations of the individual processes. Separation by crystallization or Craig partition or a combination of both processes is particularly suitable.
The enantiomerically pure dihydropyridines are preferably esterified in ethers such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide, methylene chloride, chloroform, acetonitrile or toluene.
The aldehydes of the general formula (II) are also new and can be prepared by a process in which
a) either compounds of the general formula (IX)
R.sup.31 --CH.sub.3 (IX)
in which
R.sup.3' represents the radicals of the formula ##STR17## in which
R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 have the abovementioned meanings, are halogenated to give compounds of the general formula (X)
R.sup.3' --CH.sub.2 --Hal (X)
in which
R.sup.3' has the abovementioned meaning and
Hal represents halogen, preferably bromine, reacted with acetate ions and then hydrolyzed to give compounds of the general formula (XI)
R.sup.3' --CH.sub.2 OH (XI)
in which
R.sup.3' has the abovementioned meaning, and in a last step oxidized by a customary method,
b) or by a process in which compounds of the general formula (XII)
R.sup.3" --CH.sub.3 (XII)
in which
R.sup.3" represents a radical of the formula ##STR18## in which
R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 have the abovementioned meanings, are halogenated to give compounds of the general formula (XIII)
R.sup.3" --CH(Br).sub.2 (XIII)
in which
R.sup.3" has the abovementioned meaning, and then hydrolyzed by a customary method.
The process according to the invention can be illustrated by way of example by the following equation: ##STR19##
Suitable solvents in this case are all inert organic solvents which do not change under the reaction conditions. These preferably include alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol or isopropanol, or ethers such as diethyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, glycol dimethyl ether, or diethylene glycol dimethyl ether or amides such as hexamethylphosphoric triamide or dimethylformamide, or acetic acid. It is also possible to use mixtures of the solvents mentioned.
Suitable oxidizing agents in the case of the hydroxymethyl compounds are, for example, manganese dioxide, dimethyl sulphoxide, ceric ammonium nitrate, dipyridine-chromium(VI) oxide, sodium dichromate, iodosobenzene, pyridine chlorochromate, silver carbonate on celite or Jones reagent. Manganese dioxide is preferred.
The oxidations and reductions can be carried out at normal pressure or at elevated or reduced pressure (for example from 0.5 to 5 bar), preferably at normal pressure.
The compounds of the general formula (IX) are known [compare Acta Chem. Second Ser B., 31, 203 (1977)].
The compounds of the general formula (X) are known or can be prepared by methods known from the literature [compare J. Org. Chem. 46, 3259 (1981)].
The acetoacetic esters of the formula (III) are known or can be prepared by customary methods [compare D. Borrmann, "Umsetzung von Diketonen mit Alkoholen, Phenolen und Mercaptanen" (Reaction of diketones with alcohols, phenols and mercaptans), in Houben-Weyl, Methoden der organischen Chemie, (Methods of Organic Chemistry), Vol. VIII/4, 230 et seq. (1968)].
The ylidene compounds (IV) and (VII) are new, but can be prepared by customary methods [compare H. Dornow and W. Sassenberg, Liebigs Ann. Chem. 602, 14 (1957)].
The aminocrotonic acid derivatives of the formula (VI) and (VIII) are known or can be prepared by known methods [S. A. Glickman, A. C. Cope, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 67, 1017 (1946)].
The compounds of the general formula (V) are also known [compare N. Levy, C. W. Scaife, J. Chem. Soc. (London) 1946, 1100; C. D. Hurd, M. E. Nilson, J. Org. Chem. 20, 927 (1955)].
The above preparation processes are only indicated for clarification. The preparation of the compounds of the formula (I) and (II) is not restricted to these processes, but any modification of these processes can be used in the same way for the preparation of the compounds according to the invention.
The compounds according to the invention exhibit an unforeseeable, valuable pharmacological action spectrum. They influence the contractility of the heart and the tone of the smooth musculature. They can therefore be employed in medicaments for influencing pathologically altered blood pressure, as coronary therapeutics and for the treatment of cardiac insufficiency. Moreover, they can be used for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, for the reduction of blood sugar, for the detumescence of mucosal membranes and for influencing the salt and fluid balance.
The cardiac and vascular effects were discovered in the isolated perfused guinea-pig heart.
For this, the hearts of 250 to 350 g guinea-pigs are used. The animals are sacrificed by a blow to the head, the thorax is opened and a metal cannula is tied into the exposed aorta. The heart is separated out of the thorax with the lungs and attached to the perfusion apparatus with continuous perfusion via an aortic cannula. The lungs are separated at the lung roots. A Krebs-Henseleit solution (1) (118.5 mmol/l of NaCl, 4.75 mmol/l of KCl, 1.19 mmol/l of KH.sub.2 PO.sub.4, 1.19 mmol/l of MgSO.sub.4, 25 mmol/l of NaHCO.sub.3, 0.013 mmol/l of Na.sub.2 EDTA) whose CaCl.sub.2 content is 1.2 mmol/l is used as the perfusion medium. 10 mmol/l of glucose are added as an energy-producing substrate. The solution is filtered particle-free before the perfusion. The solution is aerated with carbogen (95% O.sub.2, 5% CO.sub.2) to maintain a pH of 7.4. The hearts are perfused with a constant flow (10 ml/min) at 32.degree. C. by means of a peristaltic pump.
To measure the cardiac function, a liquid-filled latex balloon which is connected to a pressure transducer via a liquid column is inserted through the left auricle into the left ventricle, and the isovolumetric contractions are recorded on a rapid recorder (Opie, L., J. Physiol. 180 (1965), 529-541). The perfusion pressure is recorded by means of a pressure transducer which is connected to the perfusion system upstream of the heart. Under these conditions, a reduction in the perfusion pressure indicates a coronary dilatation, and an increase or decrease in the left ventricular contraction amplitude indicates a reduction or an increase in the heart contractility. The compounds according to the invention are perfused into the perfusion system in suitable dilutions shortly upstream of the isolated heart.
The new active compounds can be converted in a known manner into the customary formulations, such as tablets, coated tablets, pills, granules, aerosols, syrups, emulsions, suspensions and solutions, using inert, non-toxic, pharmaceutically suitable excipients or solvents. In this connection, the therapeutically active compound should in each case be present in a concentration of about 0.5 to 90% by weight of the total mixture, i.e. in amounts which are sufficient in order to achieve the dosage range indicated.
The formulations are prepared, for example, by extending the active compounds with solvents and/or excipients, if appropriate using emulsifiers and/or dispersants, where, for example, in the case of the use of water as a diluent, organic solvents can optionally be used as auxiliary solvents.
Administration is carried out in a customary manner, preferably orally or parenterally, in particular perlingually or intravenously.
In general it has proved advantageous on intravenous administration to administer amounts of about 0.001 to 1 mg/kg, preferably about 0.01 to 0.5 mg/kg of body weight to achieve effective results, and on oral administration the dosage is about 0.01 to 20 mg/kg, preferably 0.1 to 10 mg/kg of body weight.
In spite of this, it may be necessary to deviate from the amounts mentioned, in particular depending on the body weight or the type of administration route, on individual behaviour towards the medicament, the nature of its formulation and the point in time or interval at which administration takes place. Thus, in some cases it may be sufficient to manage with less than the above-mentioned minimum amount, while in other cases the upper limit mentioned must be exceeded. In the case of the administration of larger amounts, it may be advisable to divide these into several individual doses over the course of the day.
