Abstract
The present invention relates to 7-alkyl- and cycloalkyl-substituted imidazotriazinones, to processes for their preparation and to their use as medicaments, in particular as inhibitors of cGMP-metabolizing phosphodiesterases.
Description

The present invention relates to 7-alkyl- and cycloalkyl-substituted imidazotriazinones, to processes for their preparation and to their use as medicaments, in particular as inhibitors of cGMP-metabolizing phosphodiesterases.


The published specification DE-28 11 780 describes imidazotriazines as bronchodilators having spasmolytic activity and inhibitory activity against phosphodiesterases which metabolize cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP-PDEs, nomenclature according to Beavo: PDE-III and PDE-IV). An inhibitory action against phosphodiesterases which metabolize cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP-PDEs, nomenclature according to Beavo and Reifsnyder (Trends in Pharmacol. Sci. 11, 150-155, 1990) PDE-I, PDE-II and PDE-V) has not been described. Compounds having a sulphonamide group in the aryl radical in the 2 position are not claimed. Furthermore, FR 22 13 058, CH-59 46 71, DE-22 55 172, DE-23 64 076 and EP-000 9384 describe imidazotriazinones which do not have a substituted aryl radical in the 2 position and are likewise said to be bronchodilators having cAMP-PDE-inhibitory action.


The compounds according to the invention are potent inhibitors either of one or of more of the phosphodiesterases which metabolize cyclic guanosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cGMP-PDEs). According to the nomenclature of Beavo and Reifsnyder (Trends in Pharmacol. Sci. 11, 150-155, 1990) these are the phosphodiesterase isoenzymes PDE-I, PDE-II and PDE-V.


An increase in the cGMP concentration can lead to beneficial antiaggregatory, antithrombotic, antiprolific, antivasospastic, vasodilative, natriuretic and diuretic effects. It can influence the short- or long-term modulation of muscular and cardiac inotropy, of the pulse and of cardiac conduction (J. C. Stoclet, T. Keravis, N. Komas and C. Lugnier, Exp. Opin. Invest. Drugs (1995), 4 (11), 1081-1100).


The present invention, accordingly, provides 7-alkyl- and cycloalkyl-substituted imidazotriazinones of the general formula (I)

  • and then reacted with amines of the general formula (VI)

    HN3R4  (VI)

    in which
  • R3 and R4 are as defined above
  • in inert solvents.


The process according to the invention can be illustrated in an exemplary manner by the equations below:
embedded image


Solvents which are suitable for the individual steps are the customary organic solvents which do not change under the reaction conditions. These preferably include ethers, such as diethyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, glycol dimethyl ether, or hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, xylene, hexane, cyclohexane or mineral oil fractions, or halogenated hydrocarbons, such as dichloromethane, trichloromethane, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethane, trichloroethylene or chlorobenzene, or ethyl acetate, dimethylformamide, hexamethylphosphoric triamide, acetonitrile, acetone, dimethoxyethane or pyridine. It is also possible to use mixtures of the above-mentioned solvents. Particular preference is given to ethanol for the first step and dichloroethane for the second step.


The reaction temperature can generally be varied within a relatively wide range. In general, the reaction is carried out in a range of from −20° C. to 200° C., preferably of from 0° C. to 70° C.


The process steps according to the invention are generally carried out under atmospheric pressure. However, it is also possible to operate under superatmospheric pressure or under reduced pressure (for example, in a range of from 0.5 to 5 bar).


The reaction to give the compounds of the general formula (V) is carried out in a temperature range of from 0° C. to room temperature, and at atmospheric pressure.


The reaction with the amines of the general formula (VI) is carried out in one of the abovementioned chlorinated hydrocarbons, preferably in dichloromethane.


The reaction temperature can generally be varied within a relatively wide range. In general, the reaction is carried out at temperatures in a range of from −20° C. to 200° C., preferably of from 0° C. to room temperature.


The reaction is generally carried out at atmospheric pressure. However, it is also possible to operate under superatmospheric pressure or under reduced pressure (for example in a range of from 0.5 to 5 bar).


Some of the compounds of the general formula (II) are known, or they are novel, and they can then be prepared by

  • converting compounds of the general formula (VII)

    R2—CO-T  (VII)

    in which
  • R2 is as defined above and

    in which
  • R1 and R2 are each as defined above,
  • and finally reacting with the compound of the formula (X)
    embedded image

    in inert solvents, if appropriate in the presence of a base.


Suitable solvents for the individual steps of the process are the customary organic solvents which do not change under the reaction conditions. These preferably include ethers, such as diethyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, glycol dimethyl ether, or hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, xylene, hexane, cyclohexane or mineral oil fractions, or halogenated hydrocarbons, such as dichloromethane, trichloromethane, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethylene, trichloroethylene or chlorobenzene, or ethyl acetate, dimethylformamide, hexamethylphosphoric triamide, acetonitrile, acetone, dimethoxyethane or pyridine. It is also possible to use mixtures of the above-mentioned solvents. Particular preference is given to dichloromethane for the first step and to a mixture of tetrahydrofuran and pyridine for the second step.


Suitable bases are generally alkali metal hydrides or alkali metal alkoxides, such as, for example, sodium hydride or potassium tert-butoxide, or cyclic amines, such as, for example, piperidine, pyridine, dimethylaminopyridine or C1-C4 alkylamines, such as, for example, triethylamine. Preference is given to triethylamine, pyridine and/or dimethylaminopyridine.


The base is generally employed in an amount of from 1 mol to 4 mol, preferably from 1.2 mol to 3 mol, in each case based on 1 mol of the compound of the formula (X).


The reaction temperature can generally be varied within a relatively wide range. In general, the reaction is carried out in a range of from −20° C. to 200° C., preferably of from 0° C. to 100° C.


The compounds of the general formulae (VII), (VIII), (IX) and (X) are known per se, or they can be prepared by customary methods.


The compounds of the general formula (II) can be prepared by

  • reacting compounds of the general formula (XI)
    embedded image

    in which
  • R5 and R6 are each as defined above
  • with ammonium chloride in toluene and in the presence of trimethylaluminium in hexane in a temperature range of from −20° C. to room temperature, preferably at 0° C. and atmospheric pressure, and reacting the resulting amidine, if appropriate in situ, with hydrazine hydrate, to give the compounds of the general formula (III).


The compounds of the general formula (XI) are known per se, or they can be prepared by customary methods.


Most of the compounds of the general formula (IV) and (V) are novel, and they can be prepared as described above.


The amines of the general formula (VI) are known or can be prepared by customary methods.


The compounds of the general formula (I) according to the invention have an unforeseeable useful pharmacological activity spectrum.


They inhibit either one or more of the cGMP-metabolizing phosphodiesterases (PDE I, PDE II and PDE V). This results in an increase of cGMP. The differentiated expression of the phosphodiesterases in different cells, tissues and organs, as well as the differentiated subcellular localization of these enzymes, in combination with the selective inhibitors according to the invention make it possible to selectively address the various cGMP-regulated processes.


Moreover, the compounds according to the invention enhance the activity of substances such as, for example EDRF (endothelium derived relaxing factor), ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide), of nitrovasodilators and all other substances which increase the cGMP concentration in a manner different from that of phosphodiesterase inhibitors.


They can therefore be employed in pharmaceuticals for treating cardiovascular disorders, such as, for example, for treating hypertension, neuronal hypertonia, stable and unstable angina, peripheral and cardial vasculopathies, arrhythmiae, for treating thromboembolic disorders and ischaemias such as myocardial infarction, stroke, transistory and ischaemic attacks, angina pectoris, obstruction of peripheral circulation, prevention of restenoses after thrombolysis therapy, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasties (PTCA) and bypass. Furthermore, they may also be of significance for cerebrovascular disorders.


They are also suitable for treating all disorders in which a relaxing action on smooth muscles is of importance, such as, for example, erectile dysfunction and female sexual dysfunction.


Activity of the Phosphodiesterases (PDEs)


The cGMP-stimulated PDE II, the cGMP-inhibited PDE III and the cAMP-specific PDE IV were isolated either from porcine or bovine heart myocardium. The Ca2+-calmodulin-stimulated PDE I was isolated from porcine aorta, porcine brain or, preferably, from bovine aorta. The cGMP-specific PDE V was obtained from porcine small intestine, porcine aorta, human platelets and, preferably, from bovine aorta.


Purification was carried out by anion exchange chromatography over MonoQ® Pharmacia, essentially following the method of M. Hoey and Miles D. Houslay, Biochemical Pharmacology, Vol. 40, 193-202 (1990) and C. Lugman et al., Biochemical Pharmacology, Vol. 35, 1743-1751 (1986).


The “phosphodiesterase [3H] cAMP-SPA enzyme assay” and the “phosphodiesterase [3H] cGMP-SPA enzyme assay” from Amersham Life Science were used for determining enzyme activity and IC50 values of the various substances. The test was carried out according to the test protocol of the manufacturer. To determine the activity of PDE2, the [3H]cAMP SPA assay was used, and 10−6 M cGMP were added to the reaction mixture to activate the enzyme. To measure PDE1, 10−7 M calmodulin and 1 mM CaCl2 were added to the reaction mixture. PDE5 was measured using the [3H]cGMP SPA assay.


The substances preferably inhibit phosphodiesterases I and V. For both enzymes, the IC50 values are in the range from 500 [lacuna] to 1 mM for PDE V preferably in the range from 1 to 100, for PDE I preferably in the range from 10 to 300 mM.


In principle, inhibition of one or more phosphodiesterases of this type results in an increase of the cGMP concentration. Thus, the compounds are of interest for all therapies in which an increase in the cGMP concentration is considered to be beneficial.


The cardiovascular effects were investigated using SH rats and dogs. The substances were administered intravenously or orally.


The novel active compounds and their physiologically acceptable salts (for example hydrochlorides, maleates or lactates) 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 case the therapeutically active compound should in each case be present in a concentration of from approximately 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 using solvents and/or excipients, if appropriate using emulsifiers and/or dispersants, it optionally being possible, for example, to use organic solvents as auxiliary solvents if the diluent used is water.


Administration is carried out in a customary manner, preferably orally, transdermally or parenterally, for example perlingually, buccally, intravenously, nasally, rectally or inhalatively.


In spite of this, if appropriate it may be necessary to depart from the amounts mentioned, namely depending on the body weight or the type of administration route, on the individual response towards the medicament, the manner of its formulation and the time or interval at which administration takes place. Thus, in some cases it may be adequate to manage with less than the abovementioned minimum amounts, while in other cases the upper limit mentioned has to be exceeded. In the case of the administration of relatively large amounts, it may be advisable to divide these into several individual doses over the course of the day.


For human use, in the case of oral administration, doses of from 0.001 to 30 mg/kg, preferably of 0.01 mg/kg-10 mg/kg are administered. In the case of parenteral administration, it is good practice to use doses of 0.001 mg/kg--½ mg/kg.


The compounds according to the invention are also suitable for use in veterinary medicine. For use in veterinary medicine, the compounds or their non-toxic salts can be administered in a suitable formulation in accordance with general veterinary practice. Depending on the kind of animal to be treated, the veterinary surgeon can determine the nature of use and the dosage.

0.05 mmol of amine are initially charged and 0.038 mmol of sulphonyl chloride as a solution in 1,2-dichloroethane and 0.05 mmol of triethylamine as a solution in 1,2-dichloroethane are pipetted in by the synthesizer. After 24 h, the solution is initially admixed with 3 ml of saturated NaHCO3 solution and the reaction mixture is filtered through a two-phase cartridge. The product is obtained after concentrating the filtrate under reduced pressure.


All reactions are monitored by thin-layer chromatography. If the reaction is not complete after 24 h at room temperature, the mixture is heated at 60° C. for a further 12 h and the experiment is subsequently terminated.
