Description

TECHNICAL FIELD
This invention relates to 3N-substituted 3,4-dihydropyrimidine derivatives of the formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 is methyl or ethyl, R.sup.2 is methyl or ethyl, R is phenyl or substituted phenyl, X is chloro or methyl and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, processes for preparation thereof and their use as agents for treating disorders of the cariovascular system.
Since the above dihydropyrimidine derivatives of the formula (1) have substantially the same strong vasodilative effects as nicardipine and the effects endure over a long term, said compounds are useful as agents for treating disorders of the cardiovascular system, for example, hypotensors, agents for amelioration of brain circulation and anti-angina pectoris agents.
BACKGROUND ART
Currently it is being found that calcium antagonists (Ca.sup.++ antagonists), which had been spotlighted as new agents for treating disorders of the cardiovascular system, have a variety of pharmacological effects and are active not only against hypertension, angina pectoris, brain circulation and metabolism incompetence and arrhythmia but also for prevention of arterial sclerosis and increase in effects of carcinostatic agents. Thus indications as to the benefits of Ca.sup.++ antagonists continue to increase.
Ca.sup.++ antagonists which have been known include Nifedipine, Nicardipine, Verapamil, Diltiazen and the like. But there is room for improvement in the properties of the above-mentioned known Ca.sup.++ antagonists such as duration, organ-selectivity, stability against light, heat etc. and side effects. Up to this day, however, dihydropyrimidine derivatives have not often been investigated. Only a few references disclose said derivatives. [For example refer to Silversmith, E. F. J., Org. Chem., 27, 14090 (1962), Nasipuri, D. et al., Synthesis 1073 (1982), Kashima, C., Tetrahedron Letters 209 (1982) and Japanese Patent Public Disclosure No. 73572/59 (Bayer, A.B.)]
This can be considered to be due to the instability and tautomerism of the hydropyrimidine derivatives.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The inventors eagerly investigated the Ca.sup.++ antagonists which are currently considered to be important. As a result we found that N-substituted 3,4-dihydropyrimidine derivatives of the formula (1) have excellent vasodilative effects.
The present invention provides N-substituted 3,4-dihydropyrimidine derivatives of the formula (1) and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof and processes for preparation of the same.
Dihydropyrimidine derivatives of the formulae: ##STR3## wherein R, R.sup.2 and X are as defined above, and which are tautomeric isomers, have vasodilative effects too. But the compounds of the formula (1) were synthesized in order to obtain compounds having higher stability and activity.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
3N-substituted 3,4-dihydropyrimidine derivatives of the formula (1) can be prepared in the following procedures:
(i) 6-methyl-dihydropyrimidine (2) and (2')
An .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated carbonyl compound of the formula (3): ##STR4## wherein R.sup.2 is methyl or ethyl and R is phenyl or substituted phenyl is reacted with not less than one equivalent of acetamidine in a suitable alcohol to obtain a tetrahydropyrimidine derivative of the formula: ##STR5## wherein R and R.sup.2 are as defined above. When using a salt of acetamidine such as a hydrochloride, it is preferable to convert acetamidine with alkali metal alkoxide to a free amine before forming the salt. Alcohols used in the above reaction preferably include methanol and ethanol.
The thus obtained tetrahydropyrimidine derivatives (4) can be converted to dihydropyrimidine derivatives of the formulae (2) and (2') after purification as hydrochlorides of the compounds (4) or without purification.
Processes for preparing compounds (2) and (2') from compounds (4) include, for example, Process A comprising dehydrating a compound (4) by heating with p-toluenesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid or the like; Process B comprising mixing a compound (4) with not less than about 5 parts by weight, preferably about 10 parts by weight of an inorganic substance such as alumina, silica gel or molecular sieve, heating the mixture at 120.degree.-200.degree. C. for 15 minutes to 1 hour and extracting the mixture with an organic solvent; and Process C comprising dissolving the compound (4) in phosphorus oxychloride and dehydrating said compound by heating the solution to reflux.
According to the above Processes A, B and C, the dihydropyrimidine derivatives of the formulae (2) and (2') can be obtained in a yield of 40-70%, 20-50% and about 50%, respectively. The derivatives (2) and (2') can also be obtained by dehydrating compounds (4) by using an acid such as camphor-10-sulfonic acid or a lewis acid such as boron trifluoride ether complex.
The product can be purified by conventional methods such as adsorption chromatography, evaporation, recrystallization, etc. Alternatively the product can be crystallized as an inorganic acid salt thereof such as hydrochloride, sulfate or phosphate or an organic acid salt thereof such as oxalate, tartarate, succinate or maleate, and then purified by recrystallization.
The above procedures can be illustrated by the following scheme: ##STR6## wherein R.sup.2 is methyl or ethyl, and R is phenyl or substituted phenyl. (ii) 6-chloro-dihydropyrimidine (2) and (2')
5,6-Dihydro-4-pyrimidine (5) of the formula: ##STR7## wherein R.sup.2 is methyl or ethyl and R is phenyl or substituted phenyl is heated with phsophorus oxychloride or phosphorus pentachloride. The reaction can be carried out in an inert organic solvent but preferably no solvent is used.
5,6-Dihydro-4-pyrimidine of the formula (5) can be synthesized by an improved process which is a modification of a process described in the reference [C. D. H. Allen et al., Org. Syn. Coll. Vol. 3, 377 (1955)]. First, dialkyl malonate is heated with an equivalent of an aldehyde in the presence of a base such as piperidine, methylpiperidine or trialkylamine in a solvent, peferably aromatic hydrocarbon, ether, halogenized hydrocarbon to produce 2-alkoxycarbonylpropenic acid ester of the formula: ##STR8## wherein R.sup.2 is methyl or ethyl and R is phenyl or substituted phenyl. Purification of the ester (6) can be carried out by conventional methods such as distillation, recrystallization, column chromatography or thin layer chromatography to obtain crystals or oil.
Next, propenic acid ester (6) is heated with an equivalent of acetamidine or a salt thereof in an alcohol in the presence of an alkali metal alcoholate such as lithium ethoxide, sodium ethoxide, potassium ethoxide, sodium methoxide, lithium methoxide, sodium propoxide, potassium propoxide, potassium butoxide or the like to produce 5,6-dihydro-4-pyrimidine of the formula (5). The thus obtained 5,6-dihydro-4-pyrimidine (5) is easily purified by conventional methods such as distillation, recrystallization, adsorption chromatography, partition chromatography, gel filtration, or methods utilizing solubility or acidity.
The dihydropyrimidine derivatives of the formulae (2) and (2') which are tautomeric isomers can be obtained by heating 5,6-dihydro-4-pyrimidines of the formula (5) with an excess of phosphorus oxychloride or phosphorus pentachloride. After the reaction is quenched by adding water to the reaction mixture to decompose the phosphorus compound or by removing said reagent by distillation, the residue is extracted with an organic solvent to isolate the object compound as pure crystals or oil. Alternatively the crude product is purified by conventional methods such as silica gel chromatography (adsorption chromatography), partition chromatography, gel filtration chromatography, recrystallization, distillation, etc. The dihydropyrimidine derivatives of the formulae (2) and (2') form salts with an inorganic acid such as hydrochloric acid or sulfate or an organic acid such as oxalic acid or succinic acid.
The above procedures can be illustrated as follows: ##STR9## wherein R.sup.2 is methyl or ethyl and R is phenyl or substituted phenyl. (iii) 3N-substituted 3,4-dihydropyrimidine derivatives
A compound represented by the formulae (2) and (2') is dissolved in an organic solvent such as hydrocarbon chloride, aromatic hydrocarbon, ether or the like and treated with a compound of the formula ##STR10## or (R.sup.1 O).sub.2 C.dbd.O, wherein R.sup.1 is CH.sub.3 or C.sub.2 H.sub.5 in the presence of a base e.g. trialkylamine, sodium hydride, potassium hydride or triethylene to produce a 3N-substituted 3,4-dihydropyrimidine derivative of the formula (1).
Alternatively a compound represented by the formulae (2) and (2') is converted with sodium hydride, potassium hydride, alkyl lithium or lithium hydride to a alkali metal salt thereof and the salt is treated with a compound of the formula ##STR11## or (R.sup.1 O).sub.2 C.dbd.O, wherein R.sup.1 is CH.sub.3 or C.sub.2 H.sub.5 to produce a 3N-substituted 3,4-dihydropyrimidine derivative of the formula (1).
After the above reaction the products of the formula (1) of this invention can be purified by using conventional methods such as adsorption column chromatography, ion-exchange chromatography or recrystallization. Alternatively, the products can be treated with an inorganic acid such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid, or an organic acid such as oxalic acid, succinic acid or malic acid to convert them to salts thereof, and then can be purified by recrystallization, adsorption chromatography or ion-exchange chromatography.
The thus obtained compounds of the formula (1) indicated strong vasodilative effects in Langendorff's method and showed strong vasodilative and hypotensive effects in pharmacological tests using anesthetized dogs.
The processes of this invention are illustrated by the following scheme: ##STR12## wherein R.sup.1 is methyl or ethyl, R.sup.2 is methyl or ethyl, R is phenyl or substituted phenyl, and Y is an alkali metal.

EXAMPLE 23
The coronary vascular dilative effect of 3N-substituted 3,4-dihydropryrimidine derivatives was tested.
TEST METHOD
Heartly guinea pigs (weight 400-500 g) were clubbed dead and their hearts were immediately isolated. The hearts were perfused with Krebs-Henseleit solution bubbled with a mixture of 95% O.sub.2 +5% CO.sub.2 and maintained at 37.degree. C. at a certain rate of 6 ml/minute according to Langendorff's method [J. Pharmacol. Methods 2, 143 (1979)]. The perfusion pressure was determined by a pressure transducer. Samples were prepared by dissolving 1 mg of a test compound in 1 ml of a mixture of dimethylsulfoxide and physiological saline (1:9) and diluting with physiological saline the solution to the predetermined concentration. 0.1 ml of the diluted solution was administered into the coronary artery via a rubber tube connected to an aorta cannula to obtain ED.sub.50 (.mu.g/heart) data as shown in Table 1. The numbers of the compounds in the Table correspond respectively to those of the working examples described above.

EXAMPLE 24
The pharmacological effects of the compounds of the present invention with respect to the blood flow and blood vessel resistance of vertebral artery and systemic blood pressure (average pressure) in anesthetized dogs.
TEST METHOD
Male and female dogs (7-14 kg in weight) were induction-anesthetized with thiopental sodium (35 mg/kg, intraperitoneal), anesthetized with urethane (400 mg/kg, intravenous) and chloralose (60 mg/kg, intravenous) and kept under artificial respiration during the test. The first and second ribs were cut open to expose the left vertebral artery. A probe was attached to the origin of the artery and the blood flow was measured with an electromagnetic rheometer (Model MF-27, product of Nihon Koden K.K.)
At the same time, continuous measurement of the following parameters was made: systemic blood pressure (average pressure) at the right femoral artery, the ECG in the second induction period, the heart beat with a tachometer driven by the R wave, and the blood vessel resistance determined by loading a multiplication/division unit (EO-601 G, product of Nihon Koden K.K.) with the average values of blood pressure and blood flow in the vertebral artery. All of these parameters were recorded simultaneously on a polygraph (RM-600, product of Nihon Koden, K.K.)
All of the test compounds were injected through a cannula inserted into the femoral view.
