ANTI-ALLERGIC ACTIVITY
The compounds of this invention of formula I are useful in the prevention or treatment of allergic reactions in a mammal.
More specifically, the compounds of this invention are useful for the prophylactic treatment as well as for the management of anaphylactic reactions and atopic allergic manifestations, for example, bronchial asthma, hay fever, allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, food allergies, urticaria and the like, in a sensitized mammal.
The prevention or treatment of allergic reactions in a mammal by administration of a compound of formula I is demonstrated by using known anti-allergic tests in an appropriate animal model. An example of such a test is the passive paw anaphylaxis (PPA) method, described by R. R. Martel and J. Klicius, Int. Archs. Allergy Appl. Immun., 54, 205 (1977). In this method reaginic antibody-induced hypersenstivity is produced in the rat hindpaw. Increased vascular permeability is determined by measuring the increase in paw volume. An effective anti-allergic drug inhibits the increase in paw volume when compared to untreated reaginic hypersensitive controls. For example, according to this test: 3-oxo-5H-pyrimido [2,1-c][1,4]benzoxazine-1-carboxylic acid, ethyl ester (described in Example 4) at an intraperitoneal dose of 10 mg/kg of body weight causes a 40% inhibition of the increase in paw volume, at 15 minutes; 9-chloro- 3-oxo-5H-pyrimido-[2,1-c][1,4]benzothiazine-1-carboxylic acid, ethyl ester (described in Example 4) at an intraperitoneal does of 30 mg per kg of body weight causes a 48% inhibition of the increase in paw volume at 15 minutes; and 9-chloro-5H-pyrimido[2,1-c][1,4]benzoxazin-3-one (described in Example 6) at an intraperitoneal dose of 30 mg per kg of body weight causes a 19% inhibition of the increase in paw volume at 15 minutes.
When the compounds of formula I of this invention are used for suppressing allergic manifestations of anaphylactic reactions and atopic hypersensitivity in a mammal, they are used alone or in combination with pharmacologically acceptable carriers, the proportion of which is determined by the solubility and the chemical nature of the compound, chosen route of administratin and standard biological practice.
For example, they are administered orally in solid form i.e. capsule or tablet. They can also be administered orally in the form of suspensions or solutions or they may be injected parenterally. They can be administered parenterally by the nasal route, for instance, as drops or aerosol; or by inhalation from an aerosol.
In addition, the compounds of this invention can be administered in conjunction with common anti-allergic agents, for example, known compounds effecting anti-histaminic, analgesic, central nervous system depressant, anti-hypertensive, immunosupressive, anti-bradykinin, anti-serotonin or endocrinological responses.
The tablet compositions for oral administration contain the active ingredient in admixture with non-toxic pharmaceutical excipients known to be suitable in the manufacture of tablets. Suitable pharmaceutical excipients are, for example, starch, milk sugar, certain types of clay and so forth. The tablets can be uncoated or they can be coated by known techniques so as to delay disintegration and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby provide a sustained action over a longer period.
The aqueous suspensions of the compounds of formula I for oral administration contain the active ingredient the admixture with one or more non-toxic pharmaceutical excipients known to be suitable in the manufacture of aqueous suspension. Suitable excipients are, for example, methylcellulose, sodium alginate, gum acacia, lecithin and so forth. The aqueous suspensions can also contain one or more preservatives, one or more coloring agents, one or more flavoring agents and one or more sweetening agents.
Non-aqueous suspensions for oral administration can be formulated by suspending the active ingredient in a vegetable oil, for example, arachis oil, olive oil, sesame oil, or coconut oil, or in a mineral oil, for example liquid paraffin, and the suspension may contain a thickening agent, for example beeswax, hard paraffin or ethyl alcohol. These compositions can also contain a sweetening agent, flavoring agent and antioxidant.
For administration to a mammal by parenteral injection, it is preferred to use the compounds of formula I in solution in a sterile aqueous vehicle which may also contain other solutes, such as buffers or preservatives, as well as sufficient quantities of pharmaceutically acceptable salts or of glucose to make the solution isotonic.
The compounds of formula I can also be administered as nasal powders or insufflations. For such purpose the compounds are administered in finely divided solid form together with a pharmaceutically acceptable solid carrier, for example, a finely divided polyethylene glycol (e.g. "Carbowax 1540") or finely divided lactose. Such compositions may also contain other excipients in finely divided solid form.
For administering the compounds of this invention by inhalation from an aerosol, the compound of formula I is dissolved in water or ethanol and mixed with a volatile propellant, for example, dichlorotetrafluoroethane and dichlorodifluoromethane, and placed in a pressurized container having a metering valve to release a predetermined amount of material.
The dosage of the compounds of formula I as anti-allergic agents will vary with the form of administration and the particular compound chosen. Furthermore, it will vary with the particular host as well as the age, weight and condition of the host under treatment as well as with the nature and extent of the symptoms. Generally, treatment is initiated with small dosages substantially less than the optimum dose of the compound. Thereafter, the dosage is increased by small increments until the optimum effect under circumstances is reached. In general, the compounds of this invention are most desirably administered at a concentration level that will generally afford effective results without causing any harmful or deleterious side effects. For example, an effective anti-allergic amount of a compound of formula I usually ranges from about 0.1 mg to about 500 mg per kg of body weight per day in single or divided dose, although as aforementioned, variations will occur. However, a dosage level that is in the range from about 0.5 mg to about 200 mg per kg of body weight per day in single or divided dose is employed most desirably in order to achieve effective results.
PROCESS
For the preparation of the compounds of formula I, the preferred starting materials are the compounds of formula II in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are the same or different selected from the group or hydrogen, lower alkyl and halo. Reaction Scheme I illustrates a preferred method for the preparation of the starting materials of formula II.
REACTION SCHEME I ##STR2##
The sequence of reactions illustrated in Reaction Scheme I essentially is described by M. Mazharuddin and G. Thyagarajan, Chem. Ind. (London), 178 (1971) for the preparation of the compound of formula II in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are hydrogen. For the preparation of the compounds of formula II, the phenol derivatives of formula III either are known and commercially available or are prepared by conventional methods described in the chemical literature. Condensation of the compound of formula III in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are the same or different selected from the group of hydrogen, lower alkyl and halo with 1.1 to 1.5 molar equivalents of chloroacetonitrile and potassium carbonate in acetone at 20.degree. to 60.degree. C. for four to ten days affords the corresponding compound of formula IV in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are as defined immediately above. In turn, the compound of formula IV is treated with five to eight molar equivalents of sodium methoxide in methanol at 15.degree. to 30.degree. C. for one-half to five hours to give the corresponding compound of formula II in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are as defined immediately above.
The compound of formula II in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are the same or different selected from the group of hydrogen, lower alkyl and halo is in turn reacted with at least one, preferably 1.0 to 1.2 molar equivalents, of a compound of formula R.sup.3 C .tbd.C--COO--(lower alkyl) in which R.sup.3 is hydrogen, hydroxymethyl or lower alkoxycarbonyl to obtain the corresponding compound of formula I in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are as defined herein. The reaction is performed conveniently in an organic solvent at temperatures from 10.degree. to 100.degree. C., preferably 40.degree. to 80.degree. C. Suitable organic solvents include the lower alkanols, for instance methanol or ethanol, tetrahydrofuran, benzene and dioxane. The time required for the reaction depends on the reaction temperature, with times of one hour to two days usually being sufficient.
