Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to .Iadd.certain .Iaddend.haloalkanesulfonanilides .Iadd.(specifically certain haloalkylsulfonamidobenzophenones) .Iaddend.which have valuable pharmacological activity.Iadd., especially anti-inflammatory activity.Iaddend.. Steroids having cortisone-like activity have heretofore been used for treatment of inflammatory, e.g. arthritic conditions. While these are effective, they have certain undesirable side effects. Consequently, there is a need for effective anti-inflammatory agents which are free of such disadvantages.
The novel and efficacious compounds of the present invention are non-steroidal in character, and their use does not entail side effects peculiar to steroid therapy. Of particular value in the anti-inflammatory compounds of the present invention is their relatively low toxicity, and they are well-tolerated by the gastrointestinal tract. A number of the new compounds also have anti-pyretic and analgesic activity. The pharmacological activities of these compounds have been elucidated by means of mammalian animal tests. .Iadd.
The prior art also includes disclosures of certain haloalkanesulfonanilides, alleged to have protective action against the attack of textile pests, mold and bacteria. Representative of these disclosures are those contained in British Patents 738,758 and 856,452 and French Patent 1,188,591.
Thus, British Patent 738,758 discloses the formula
[hal.sub.x --R.sub.1.SO.sub.2.NH].sub.n --R
wherein R is said to include mono- or divalent polynuclear carbocyclic radicals wherein aromatic nuclei are linked either directly by a C--C-- linkage or by the bridging members --O--, --S--, --SO.sub.2 --, --SO--, --CH.sub.2 --, --CH=CH--, -- CO--, --N=N--, or they are condensed, R.sub.1 is an aliphatic hydrocarbon radical, x is an integer and n is 1 or 2 depending upon the valency of R. This is the only disclosure in the British Patent of any structure in which aromatic nuclei are linked by the bridging member --CO--, although theoretical lists of intermediates in the preparation of compounds containing other linking groups between aromatic rings are named as are compounds having structures in which two rings are bonded directly or are fused, or are connected through oxy, sulfonyl and azo groups.
British Patent 856,452 relates (inter alia) to haloalkyl (e.g. dichloromethanesulfonyl, chloroethanesulfonyl, trifluoro- or trichloromethanesulfonyl, trichloroethanesulfonyl-, etc.). Sulfonamides of amidodiphenylamines which are halogenated on one or both aromatic nuclei. It also refers to British Patent 738,758 and summarizes certain of its teachings.
French Patent 1,188,591 has a disclosure somewhat similar to that of British Patent 738,758 but of comparable or less pertinence to the subject matter of the present case.
Thus, the particular haloalkylsulfonamidobenzophenone anti-inflammatory agents of the present invention are not rendered obvious by the teachings of these foreign patents, individually or collectively.





DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION .Iaddend.
The present invention contemplates providing a novel class of pharmacologically active compounds, especially compounds with anti-inflammatory activity. The invention further aims to provide compositions of the novel, active compounds which are suitable for administration for pharmacological purposes. Within the purview of the invention are processes for the preparation and use of the compounds of the invention for pharmacological purposes. Still other objectives of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from reading the following disclosure.
The novel benzoylhaloalkanesulfonanilides of the invention (which may also be termed haloalkylsulfonamidobenzophenones) have the formula:
Formula I ##SPC2##
wherein R.sub.x is a haloalkyl group having up to four carbon atoms and at least one halogen atom bonded to the alpha carbon atom or if there is no halogen bonded to said alpha carbon atom, having at least 2 halogen atoms bonded to the beta carbon atoms, R is hydrogen, alkyl or alkenyl containing not more than three carbon atoms, or a pharmaceutically acceptable cation; each Y .Iadd.and Y' .Iaddend. is selected from hydroxy, halogen and alkyl, alkoxy, haloalkyl and haloalkoxy groups having up to 4 carbon atoms and n and n' are each 0-3.
Unless otherwise specified, in the compounds of the invention, the various halogen atoms in an R.sub.x group can be the same or different, the various Y .Iadd.and Y'.Iaddend. groups can be the same or different (regardless of whether they occur as substituents on the same ring or on the two different rings) and n and n' can be the same or different. When n and n' are both zero, the rings will be unsubstituted, i.e. the compounds will have the formulae: ##SPC3##
The compounds of Formula I have anti-inflammatory action when tested by standard test methods using animals, as described more particularly hereinafter.
Compounds of this invention wherein R.sub.x contains up to two carbon atoms are presently preferred, and those in which R.sub.x contains one carbon atom are most preferred. Compounds wherein the halogen in the R.sub.x is fluorine and/or chlorine are presently preferred, particularly wherein the halogen therein is all fluorine (especially compounds in which R.sub.x is HCF.sub.2 -- or H.sub.2 CF--). The compounds in which R.sub.x is perfluorinated also form a preferred group, particularly trifluoromethyl.
Preferably in the foregoing groups and other compounds of the invention, the haloalkylsulfonamido group in the compounds of the invention is oriented meta to the carbonyl group.
The compounds in which n and n' are zero, or in which one of them is zero and the other is one and the Y or Y' is hydroxy have outstanding anti-inflammatory activity and therefore also form a preferred class.
When R is alkyl, it is preferred that R is methyl or ethyl. When Y and/or Y' are alkyl or alkoxy, it is preferred that the alkyl and alkoxy groups contain one carbon atom. Similarly when Y and/or Y' are haloalkyl or haloalkoxy, it is preferred that they contain one carbon atom.
The products of the present invention are effective anti-inflammatory agents and some also are analgesic and anti-pyretic agents. The anti-inflammatory activity can be conveniently demonstrated using assays designed to test the ability of these compounds to antagonize the local edema which is a characteristic of the anti-inflammatory response (rat foot edema test) and to inhibit the onset of the erythematous manifestation of inflammation (guinea pig erythema test).
The edema test is performed on adult female rats. One group of 10 rats serves as non-medicated controls, while another group of 10 rats receives the test compound at various times prior to the induction of the edema, usually 15 minutes, one hour and/or 18 hours. The test compound is administered as a suspension in 4 percent aqueous solution of acacia. Edema is induced by the plantar injection of 0.5 percent carrageenin (0.1 ml./foot) into the right hind foot. The left hind foot receives a like volume of 0.9 percent saline solution. One hour later, the volume of each hind foot is determined plethysmographically. The edema is expressed as the increase in the volume of the edemogen injected foot (volume of the "edemogen foot" less the volume of the "saline foot"). The percent inhibition is calculated by dividing the mean increase in the edema of the edemogen foot of the medicated group by the mean increase in the non-medicated group, multiplied by 100. An active dose is that giving a statistically significant inhibition of the induced edema, usually about 30-35 percent inhibition.

(3) Winter, Proc. Soc. Exper. Biol. Med. 111: 544, 1962.
The erythema test is performed on adult, albino guinea pigs of either sex weighing 400-600 g. Hair is removed from the abdomen of the animals by a depilatory mixture the afternoon of the day prior to the day on which they are to be used. One group of 5 animals serves as non-medicated controls, while another group of 5 receives the test compound 30 minutes prior to direct exposure to ultraviolet light. For induction of erythema, the animal is restrained on a small animal board. Three circular sections (6-8 mm. in diameter) of the ventrolateral abdominal area of the animal are then exposed to a controlled amount of ultraviolet radiation. Two hours after exposure, the erythema is scored 0-5 on the basis of its intensity and completeness (full or partial circles). The maximal score per animal is 15. The percent inhibition is calculated on the basis of the mean score for the medicated group versus the non-medicated group. An active dose is taken to be that giving a statistically significant inhibition of the induced erythema, usually 35-40 percent inhibition. Modifications of this test include variation in the time and method of drug administration.

Aspirin, which is very widely used as an anti-inflammatory agent, is only marginally active at 150 mg./kg. in the rat foot edema test.
The compounds named hereinabove, and their salts are made by the general process described hereinbelow and as further specifically illustrated in the examples.
To produce the compounds of Formula I, wherein R is hydrogen, an aminobenzophenone is condensed with a haloalkylsulfonyl halide or anhydride according to the following scheme: ##SPC4##
wherein R.sub.x, n,n'.[.and Y.]. .Iadd.Y and Y' .Iaddend. are as previously defined and X represents a halogen atom, preferably chlorine or fluorine, or the corresponding anhydride grouping --OSO.sub.2 R.sub.x (R.sub.x being defined as above). Approximately equivalent amounts of the reactants are brought together at temperatures most often ranging between about -15.degree. and 150.degree. C. If necessary or desirable, the reaction can be carried out in a pressure vessel. The reaction is preferably, but not necessarily, carried out in the presence of an acid acceptor such as the alkali or alkaline earth metal carbonates and bicarbonates or a tertiary amine such as pyridine, triethylamine or N,N-dimethylaniline. The amount of the acid acceptor can be varied widely; however, a 10 mole percent excess of that amount of base sufficient to bind the liberated strong acid (HX) is routinely employed.
The condensation is usually conducted in the presence of an appropriate inert organic solvent. Typical solvents suitable for this purpose are methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, benzene, toluene, bis(2-methoxyethyl) ether, acetonitrile, nitromethane, and the like.
After reaction is complete, if the reaction solvent is not water miscible, the product mixture can be extracted with a dilute aqueous base solution. The product, in the form of a salt which is usually soluble in the aqueous layer, is precipitated therefrom by addition of a mineral acid such as hydrochloric or sulfuric acid, and collected by filtration. Alternatively the product mixture can be washed with aqueous hydrochloric acid, the solvent evaporated in vacuo, and the residue dissolved in a dilute aqueous base solution which is washed with dichloromethane and treated with decolorizing charcoal. The product, in the form of a salt is then isolated as described above.
If the reaction solvent is water miscible, the product is generally obtained by dilution of the reaction mixture with water. The product, a solid or oil, is separated and purified by conventional methods. The compounds prepared according to the foregoing procedures are crystalline solids purified, in general, by recrystallization from aqueous alcohol, trichloroethylene, hexane, benzene-hexane mixtures and the like. Elution chromatography has also been found to be a useful purification technique.
An additional and preferred method of obtaining the compounds of the invention in which Y .Iadd.or Y' .Iaddend.is hydroxy is by cleavage of the alkoxy group of the comparable sulfonanilides in which Y .Iadd.or Y' .Iaddend.is alkoxy. This can be done conveniently with hydrogen iodide-acetic acid mixtures. Alternatively, other known ether cleavage methods, e.g. hydrobromic acid-acetic acid, may be used.
When R is hydrogen in the compounds of the invention, this hydrogen is acidic in nature. Consequently, they readily form salts of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, amines and the like. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of these acidic compounds are included within the scope of Formula I, when R is a pharamaceutically acceptable cation.
Many of the salts are readily prepared by adding the stoichiometric amount of the selected base in inert solvent solution to the acidic compound. The resulting solution is treated to remove the solvent, e.g. by evaporation under reduced pressure. The salts are conveniently used in making pharmaceutical preparations for administration of the compounds, e.g. in capsules for oral administration. Another method for the preparation of salts of the invention is the reaction of a salt of the invention with an organic or inorganic salt in a cation exchange reaction.
Compounds of the invention wherein R is alkyl or alkenyl are readily prepared by the reaction of the compounds of the invention where R is hydrogen or a cation with an alkyl or alkenyl halide. This method for alkylation is known to the art.
Suitable haloalkanesulfonylanhydrides and halides (e.g. chlorides and fluorides) for use as starting materials in these procedures are known to the art, for example:
fluoromethanesulfonyl chloride,
fluorochloromethanesulfonyl chloride,
difluoromethanesulfonyl chloride,
dichloromethanesulfonyl chloride,
2,2,2-trifluoroethanesulfonyl chloride,
trifluoromethanesulfonyl chloride,
1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethanesulfonyl chloride,
bromomethanesulfonyl chloride,
2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropanesulfonyl chloride,
2-hydroperfluoropropanesulfonyl chloride,
and may others disclosed e.g. in U.S. Pat. No. 2,732,398.
The aminobenzophenones used in producing the compounds of the invention are generally described in the chemical literature or can be prepared from corresponding known substituted nitrobenzophenones by reduction. Any nitrobenzophenones or aminobenzophenones not specifically disclosed in the chemical literature are prepared by methods known in the literature for analogous compounds. Exemplary of such starting materials are:
5-amino-2-chlorobenzophenone,
3-amino-4'-fluorobenzophenone,
3-amino-5-bromobenzophenone,
3-amino-4'-ethylbenzophenone,
3-amino-2'-ethoxybenzophenone,
3-amino-4'-ethoxybenzophenone, etc.
The following examples are given for the purpose of further illustrating the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope thereof. All melting and boiling points are uncorrected. All parts are by weight unless otherwise specified in the examples.
EXAMPLE 1
Preparation of 3-benzoylfluoromethanesulfonanilide
A 500 ml flask fitted with reflux condenser was charged with 8.7 g. of N,N-dimethylaniline (0.72 mole), a solution of 12.8 g. of 3-aminobenzophenone (0.065 mole) in 50 ml. of methylene chloride, 8.6 g. of fluoromethanesulfonyl chloride (0.065 mole, B.P. 138-141.degree. C.) and 200 ml. of methylene chloride. The mixture was heated at reflux temperature overnight, then cooled, washed twice with 500 ml. portions of 10 percent hydrochloric acid and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed by evaporation leaving an oil that crystallized after 3 hours in the vacuum oven to afford relatively pure product, M.P. 116-119.degree. C. This solid was taken up in 300 ml. of 10 percent aqueous sodium hydroxide. The solution was warmed, treated with activated carbon and acidified to pH 1 with concentrated hydrochloric acid. An oil formed initially but crystallized to give a solid, M.P. 115-117.degree. C. This was recrystallized from 95 percent ethanol to give analytically pure product, M.P. 117-120.degree. C.
