Description

This invention relates to novel compounds, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and methods of treatment involving their use.
According to the invention there are provided compounds of formula I,
Ar--CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --NH--CR.sup.1 R.sup.2 --X--Y I
in which
Ar represents a group, ##STR2## X represents a C.sub.1-12 alkylene chain optionally interrupted or terminated by one or more groups selected from --S(O).sub.n --, --O--, --C(Z)--, CR.sup.6 R.sup.7, phenylmethyne, --NR.sup.8 --, --CONH--, --NHCO-- and --NHCONH--,
Y represents an optionally substituted aryl or cycloalkyl group,
Z represents O or S,
R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.5 and R.sup.9 each independently represent hydrogen or alkyl C.sub.1-6, and
R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 represent hydrogen, or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 together form a group --S--, --NR.sup.9 -- or --CH.sub.2 --,
R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 independently represent hydrogen, alkyl C.sub.1-6, fluoro, cyano, or CF.sub.3, provided that at least one of R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 is other than hydrogen,
R.sup.8 represents hydrogen or alkyl C.sub.1-6, or when X is interrupted or terminated by more than one --NR.sup.8 -- group may together with another R.sup.8 group form the chain --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --, and
n represents 0, 1 or 2,
and pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof.
According to the invention we also provide a process for the production of a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof, which comprises
a) alkylation of a compound of formula II, or a derivative thereof,
Ar--CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --NH.sub.2 II
in which Ar is as defined above, with an alkylating agent of formula III,
L--CR.sup.1 R.sup.2 --X--Y III
in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2, X and Y are as defined above and L represents a leaving group,
b) alkylation of a compound of formula II, as defined above, with a compound of formula IV,
O.dbd.CR.sup.1 --X--Y IV
in which R.sup.1, X and Y are as defined above, in the presence of a reducing agent,
c) selective reduction of a compound of formula V, ##STR3## in which Ar, X, Y, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are as defined above, or for the production of compounds of formula I in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 represent hydrogen selective reduction of a compound of formula Va, ##STR4## in which Ar, X and Y are as defined above, d) removal of a protecting group from a corresponding protected compound of formula I in which one or more of the functional groups is protected,
and where desired or necessary converting the resulting compound of formula I to a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof, or vice versa.
In process a) leaving groups which L may represent include halide, such as chloride, bromide and iodide, and alkyl or arylsulphonyloxy groups such as methanesulphonyloxy or p-toluenesulphonyloxy. The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a base, e.g. an inorganic base such as sodium or potassium carbonate, or an organic base such as triethylamine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine or pyridine. The reaction is conveniently performed in a solvent such as an ether, e.g. tetrahydrofuran or dioxan, a ketone, e.g. butanone or methyl isobutyl ketone, a substituted amide, e.g. dimethylformamide, or a chlorinated hydrocarbon, e.g. chloroform, at a temperature of between ambient temperature and the reflux temperature of the solvent.
The alkylating agent of formula III may be prepared from the corresponding alcohol (i.e. the compound in which L represents OH) by known methods. For example, the alcohol may be reacted with a halogenating agent to yield the compound of formula III in which L represents a halogen atom. Suitable halogenating agents include, for example, triphenylphosphine-tetrahalogenomethane adduct (conveniently formed in situ, e.g. by the reaction of triphenylphosphine and carbontetrahromide). The reaction may take place in the presence of a solvent such as acetonitrile, or a chlorinated hydrocarbon, e.g. dichloromethane, at a temperature in the range of 0.degree.-30.degree. C.
In process b) suitable reducing agents include hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst such as platinum, platinum oxide, palladium, palladium oxide, Raney nickel or rhodium, on a support such as charcoal, using an alcohol, e.g. ethanol, or an ester, e.g. ethyl acetate, or an ether, e.g. tetrahydrofuran, or water, as reaction solvent, or a mixture of solvents, at normal or elevated temperature and pressure. Alternatively the reducing agent may be a hydride such as diborane or a metal hydride such as sodium borohydride, sodium cyanoborohydride or lithium aluminium hydride. Suitable solvents for the reaction with these reducing agents will depend on the particular hydride used, but will include alcohols, such as methanol or ethanol, or ethers, such as diethyl ether or t-butyl methyl ether, or tetrahydrofuran.
Alkylation using the compound of formula IV may give rise to an intermediate imine, reduction of which under the conditions described yields the compound of formula I.
The compounds of formulae II and IV and the alcohols corresponding to formula III are either known or may be prepared by known techniques.
In process c) the reaction may be carried out using conventional reduction techniques. The reducing agent may be electrophilic, e.g. diborane, or nucleophilic, e.g. a complex metal hydride such as lithium aluminium hydride or sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy)aluminium hydride. The solvent is preferably inert to the reaction conditions. Aprotic solvents are preferred, e.g. tetrahydrofuran, diethyl ether, or 1,2-dimethoxyethane. The reaction may be carried out at a temperature of from about 0.degree. to 100.degree. C.
The compounds of formulae V and Va may be prepared by coupling of an amine and an acid or acid chloride by conventional means. For example, the coupling may be performed in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide using the method of Sheehan and Hess, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1955, 77, 1067; or 1,1-dicarbonyldiimidazole as described by Staab, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl., 1962, 1, 351. The amines required for the coupling reaction are either known or may be prepared by conventional methods, for example, compounds in which R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 together represent --S-- may be prepared as described in J. Med. Chem., 1987, 30, 1166.
The intermediates of formula Va are novel, thus according to a further aspect of the invention there are provided compounds of formula Va, ##STR5## in which Ar, X and Y are as defined above.
Further preparative details for the compounds of formula I are given in the Examples.
In the above processes it may be necessary for any functional groups, e.g. hydroxy or amino groups, present in the starting materials to be protected, thus process d) may involve the removal of one or more protecting groups. Suitable protecting groups and methods for their removal are, for example, those described in "Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis" by T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, John Wiley and Sons Inc., 1991. Hydroxy groups may, for example, be protected by arylmethyl groups such as phenylmethyl, diphenylmethyl or triphenylmethyl, or as tetrahydropyranyl derivatives.
Suitable amino protecting groups include arylmethyl groups such as benzyl, (R,S)-.alpha.-phenylethyl, diphenylmethyl or triphenylmethyl, and acyl groups such as acetyl, trichloroacetyl or trifluoroacetyl. Conventional methods of deprotection may be used. Arylmethyl groups may, for example, be removed by hydrogenolysis in the presence of a metal catalyst e.g. palladium on charcoal. Tetrahydropyranyl groups may be cleaved by hydrolysis under acidic conditions. Acyl groups may be removed by hydrolysis with a base such as sodium hydroxide or potassium carbonate, or a group such as trichloroacetyl may be removed by reduction with, for example, zinc and acetic acid.
Pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives of the compound of formula I include pharmaceutically acceptable salts, esters and amides thereof.
Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of formula I include acid addition salts derived from inorganic and organic acids, such as hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, sulphates, phosphates, maleates, tartrates, citrates, benzoates, 4-methoxybenzoates, 2- or 4-hydroxybenzoates, 4-chlorobenzoates, benzenesulphonates, p-toluenesulphonates, naphthalenesulphonates, methanesulphonates, sulphamates, ascorbates, salicylates, acetates, diphenylacetates, triphenylacetates, adipates, fumarates, succinates, lactates, glutarates, gluconates, hydroxy-naphthalenecarboxylates, e.g. 1-hydroxy or 3-hydroxy-2-naphthalenecarboxylates, or oleates. The compounds may also form salts with suitable bases. Examples of such salts include alkali metal, e.g. sodium and potassium, and alkaline earth metal, e.g. calcium and magnesium, salts. The compound of formula I may be obtained in the form of a salt, conveniently a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Where desired, such salts may be converted to the free bases using conventional methods. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts may be prepared by reacting the compound of formula I with an appropriate acid or base in the presence of a suitable solvent.
Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable esters of the compounds of formula I include alkyl C.sub.1-6 esters, e.g. ethyl ester. The esters may be made by conventional techniques, e.g. esterification or transesterification.
Suitable amides include unsubstituted or mono- or di-substituted alkyl C.sub.1-6 or phenyl amides, and may be made by conventional techniques, e.g. reaction of an ester of the corresponding acid with ammonia or an appropriate amine.
The compounds of formula I may exhibit tautomerism, they may also contain one or more asymmetric carbon atoms and may therefore exhibit optical and/or diastereoisomerism. Diastereoisomers may be separated using conventional techniques, e.g. chromatography or fractional crystallisation. The various optical isomers may be isolated by separation of a racemic or other mixture of the compounds using conventional, e.g. fractional crystallisation or HPLC, techniques. Alternatively the desired optical isomers may be made by reaction of the appropriate optically active starting materials under conditions which will not cause racemisation.
By the term alkyl we mean straight, branched or cyclic saturated or unsaturated alkyl groups.
The term cycloalkyl includes C.sub.3-12 cyclic groups. The cycloalkyl group may contain from 1 to 3 heteroatoms selected from N, O and S. The cycloalkyl group may be unsubstituted or substituted, for example, by one or more groups selected from --OH, halogen, alkyl C.sub.1.noteq.6, alkoxy C.sub.1-6, .dbd.O, --NH.sub.2. Provided that such substituents do not interfere with the efficacy of the compound. Particular cycloalkyl groups which may be mentioned include C.sub.5 and C.sub.6 cycloalkyl groups, e.g. cyclohexane.
The term aryl includes aromatic radicals having five or six atoms in a single ring system, such groups may contain from 1 to 3 heteroatoms selected from N, O and S. The single ring system may be substituted to form a multiple fused ring system containing up to 10 atoms, for example, naphthyl, indenyl or benzothiazolyl. The aryl group may be unsubstituted or substituted, for example, by one or more groups selected from --OH, halogen, alkyl C.sub.1-6, alkoxy C.sub.1-6, .dbd.O, --NH.sub.2 or NO.sub.2. Provided that such substituents do not interfere with the efficacy of the compound. Particular aryl groups which may be mentioned include 5- and 6-membered carbocyclic and heterocyclic aryl groups, for example, furanyl, pyridinyl and thienyl. However, we prefer compounds of formula I in which Y represents phenyl.
Halogens with which Y may be substituted include bromine, chlorine and fluorine.
We prefer compounds of formula I in which X represents a C.sub.3-8, more preferably a C.sub.4-7, and especially a C.sub.5-6 alkylene chain.

The compounds of formula I are useful in that they exhibit pharmacological activity in animals. In particular the compounds are .beta.2-adrenoreceptor agonists. The activity may be demonstrated in the isolated trachea of the guinea pig, as described by I. G. Dougall, D. Harper, D. M. Jackson, and P. Left, Br. J. Pharmacol., 1991, 104, 1057. The compounds are also dopamine DA.sub.2 -agonists. The binding affinities of the test compounds for the DA.sub.2 binding sites in bovine pituitary membranes may be determined from the displacement of [.sup.3 H]-N-n-propylnorapomorphine and of [.sup.3 H]-spiperone in the absence or presence of nonhydrolysable GTP analogue respectively, D. R. Sibley, A. DeLean and I. Creese, Anterior Pituitary Dopamine Receptors, Demonstration of Interconvertible High and Low Affinity States of the D-2 Dopamine Receptor, J. Biol. Chem., 1982, 257(11), 6351-6361. The DA.sub.2 activity may also be demonstrated in a functional screen, the rabbit isolated ear artery, as described by Brown and O'Connor, Br. J. Pharmacol., 1981, 73, 189P. The compounds also show advantageous DA.sub.2 :.beta..sub.2 activity ratios.
The compounds of formula I are indicated for use in the treatment of the range of conditions known as reversible obstructive airways disease. The term "reversible obstructive airways disease" will be well understood by those skilled in the art to include conditions such as asthma, including bronchial asthma, allergic asthma, intrinsic asthma, extrinsic asthma and dust asthma, particularly chronic or inverterate asthma (for example late asthma and airway hyper-responsiveness); bronchitis and the like (see, for example, UK Patent No. 2022078 and Br. J. Pharmacol., 1987, 24, 4983). Of particular interest is asthma.
The term "treatment" as used herein includes prophylaxis as well as relieving the symptoms of disease.
According to another aspect of the invention there is therefore provided a method of treatment or prophylaxis of reversible obstructive airways disease, which method comprises administering a therapeutically effective quantity of a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof, to a patient suffering from or susceptible to such a condition.
The compounds of formula I are also indicated for use in the treatment of various other conditions, e.g. inflammatory and allergic skin disorders, congestive heart failure and glaucoma.
For the above mentioned uses the doses administered will, of course, vary with compound employed, the mode of administration and the treatment desired. However, in general, satisfactory results are obtained when the compound of formula I is administered at a daily dosage of from about 1 .mu.g to about 20 mg per kg of animal body weight, preferably given in divided doses 1 to 4 times a day or in sustained release form. For man the total daily dose is in the range of from 70 .mu.g to 1,400 mg and unit dosage forms suitable for administration comprise from 20 .mu.g to 1,400 mg of the compound admixed with a solid or liquid pharmaceutical diluent or carrier.
The compounds of formula I may be used on their own or in the form of appropriate pharmaceutical compositions for topical, enteral or parenteral administration.
Compositions in a form suitable for topical administration to the lung include aerosols, e.g. pressurised or non-pressurised powder compositions;
compositions in a form suitable for oesophageal administration include tablets, capsules and dragees;
compositions in a form suitable for administration to the skin include creams, e.g. oil-in-water emulsions or water-in-oil emulsions;
compositions in a form suitable for administration intravenously include injections and infusions; and
compositions in a form suitable for administration to the eye include drops and ointments.
According to the invention there is also provided a pharmaceutical composition comprising, preferably less than 80% and more preferably less than 50% by weight of, a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof, in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or carrier.
Examples of such diluents and carriers are:
for tablets and dragees--lactose, starch, talc, stearic acid;
for capsules--tartaric acid or lactose; and
for injectable solutions--water, alcohols, glycerin, vegetable oils.
When the compound of formula I is to be administered to the lung it may be inhaled as a powder which may be pressurised or non-pressurised. Pressurised powder compositions of the compounds of formula I may contain a liquified gas propellant or a compressed gas. In non-pressurised powder compositions the active ingredient in finely divided form may be used in admixture with a larger-sized pharmaceutically acceptable carrier comprising particles of up to, for example, 100 .mu.m in diameter. Suitable inert carriers include, e.g. crystalline lactose.
The compounds of formula I have the advantage that they are less toxic, more efficacious, are longer acting, have a broader range of activity, are more potent, produce fewer side effects, are more easily absorbed or have other useful pharmacological properties, than compounds of a similar structure.





The invention is illustrated, but in no way limited, by the following Examples, in which temperatures are in degrees Celsius. The reactions were performed under an inert atmosphere of either nitrogen or argon. Preparative HPLC separations were generally performed using a DYNAMAX.TM. 60A C-18 reverse phase column.

The mixture was stirred for 40 hours at room temperature. Glacial acetic acid (0.4 ml) was added and stirring continued for 15 min. The dimethylformamide was removed under reduced pressure, the residue slurried with ethyl acetate (50 ml) and the suspended dicyclohexylurea removed by filtration. The filtrate was washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and dried (MgSO.sub.4). The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to yield a residue which was purified by column chromatography on silica using 5% ethanol in dichloromethane as eluant, to give the subtitled compound as a yellow oil.

b) 7-[2-[6-[2-(2,3-Dihydro-1H-indenyloxy)]hexyl]aminoethyl]-4-hydroxy-1,3-benzthiazol-2(3H)-one hydrochloride
Borane-tetrahydrofuran solution (1.0M in THF, 11 ml) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of the product from step a) (1.39 g) in dry tetrahydrofuran. The mixture was heated under reflux until thin layer chromatography indicated the reaction had gone to completion, about 3 hours. The reaction was cooled and methanol (2.5 ml) added, the mixture was then heated under reflux for a further 15 min. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue dissolved in methanol (25 ml) to which was added concentrated hydrochloric acid (sg. 1.18, 0.55 ml). The solution was heated under reflux for 30 min. Cooling and removal of the methanol under reduced pressure yielded an oily residue which when triturated with ether gave the title compound as an off white solid, which was further purified by reverse phase HPLC using methanol/0.1% aqueous trifluoroacetate as eluant.
