The above compounds can be obtained according to the invention by cleaving at least one protecting group from a compound of the formula
X'--Y--CO--Z'--CH(Q.sup.1)--COO--Q.sup.5 (II)
in which
Q.sup.1 and Y have the meaning indicated further above,
X' is phenyl or 4-piperidinyl which is substituted in the 4-position by an optionally protected amidino group, or X' is 2- or 3-pyridyl which is substituted in the 5- or 6- position, respectively, by an optionally protected amidino group, and
Z' and Q.sup.5 have the same meaning as indicated further above for Z and Q.sup.2, or
b) converting the nitrile group into the amidino group in a nitrile of the formula ##STR3## and, if desired, converting a compound of the formula I into a physiologically tolerable salt or converting a salt of a compound of the formula I into the free acid or base.
Examples of protecting groups in the compounds of the formula II are the benzyl or lower alkyl groups, such as t-butyl contained in the ester groups, benzyl--OCO-- or t-Bu-OCO--; and amidino protecting groups, such as Z and Boc. Examples of protected amidino groups are --C(NH)NH--Z, --C(NH)NH-Boc and --C(N-Boc)-NH-Boc.
Ester groups can be cleaved in a manner known in the art, for example by hydrolysis using a base, such as an alkali metal hydroxide, for example sodium hydroxide, in a solvent, such as methanol. Benzyl esters can be cleaved by hydrogenation in the presence of a noble metal catalyst, such as palladium on carbon (Pd/C) in a solvent, such as methanol, ethanol, formic acid or acetic acid, at a temperature up to about 40.degree. C., preferably at room temperature. In this process, an amidino protecting group present in the group X', such as Z, is removed at the same time.
Ester groups, such as t-butyl, or amidino protecting groups, such as Boc, can be cleaved, for example, using an acid, such as formic acid or trifluoroacetic acid, if desired in a solvent, such as dichloromethane, at a temperature up to 40.degree. C., preferably at room temperature.
The compounds of the formula II are new and likewise a subject of the present invention. They can be prepared starting from known compounds by methods which are known to those skilled in the art, for example as described below.
In a first step, an amine of the formula
H--Z'--CH(Q.sup.1)COO--Q.sup.22 IV
is coupled with an acid of the formula
R.sup.5 --NHCH(Q.sup.31)(CH.sub.2).sub.1-3 --COOH Va,
R.sup.5 --NHCH.sub.2 CH(Q.sup.4)--COOH Vb, ##STR4## in which Q.sup.22 is an easily cleavable alkyl group,
Q.sup.31 is hydrogen, methyl, phenyl, --COO--lower alkyl, or --CONH(CH.sub.2).sub.2 --COO-lower alkyl,
R.sup.5 is an amino protecting group, such as Z or Boc,
n=0 and p=3 or n=2 and p=1,
An amide group is then obtained by methods known to those skilled in the art of peptide chemistry.
The coupling of a compound of formula IV with a compound of formula Va, Vb or VI can be carried out, for example, in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at -10.degree. C. to room temperature under argon in the presence of O-benzotriazol-1-yl-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium hexa-fluorophosphate (HBTU). The coupling of a compound of formula IV with a compound of formula Vc, Vd or Ve in THF using chlorodimethoxytriazine and N-methylmorpholine and then reacting the product with the p-toluenesulphonate of the amine of formula IV and N-methyl-morpholine.
From the reaction product thus obtained, an amino protecting group R.sup.5, for example Z or Boc, can then be selectively removed as described above by catalytic hydrogenation or by means of trifluoroacetic acid.
An amine of the formula
H.sub.2 NCH(Q.sup.31)(CH.sub.2).sub.1-3 --CO--Z'--CH(Q.sup.1)COO--Q.sup.22VIII
obtained as above described, for example starting from compounds of formulae IV and Va, can then be coupled with 4-cyanobenzoic acid or 4-cyano-phenylacetic acid to give a nitrile, for example one of the formula III, for example as described above for the coupling of IV with Va.
A nitrile obtained in this way or a nitrile obtained by coupling IV and VI can be converted into a compound II in which X' contains a free amidino group, for example by reaction with hydrogen sulphide and triethylamine in pyridine to give the thioamide, methylation with methyl iodide in acetone and subsequent reaction with ammonium acetate in methanol. A nitrile of formula III can be converted analogously into the corresponding compound of the formula I.
An amine of the above formula VIII can also be reacted, for example, with 1-amidino-4-piperidinecar-boxylic acid, p-amidinophenacetyl chloride or p-amidino-benzoyl chloride to give a compound II in which X' is 1-amidino-4-piperidinyl or p-amidinophenyl.
An amine of the formula VIII or an amine of the formulae Va to Ve obtained starting from a compound of the formula IV and an acid can furthermore be reacted in methylene chloride/aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution with p-amidinobenzoyl chloride and subsequently with benzyl chloroformate or with di-t-butyl dicarbonate in the presence of sodium carbonate to give a compound of the formula II in which X' is p-amidino-phenyl protected by Z or Boc.
The compounds of the formulae IV-VI are known or can be prepared in analogy to the known compounds or as described in the examples below.
Thus, a nitrile of formula VI can be prepared by coupling the appropriate amine of the formula NCC.sub.6 H.sub.4 (CH.sub.2).sub.n --NH.sub.2 with the appropriate acid of the formula HOOC(CH.sub.2).sub.p --COOQ.sup.22, for example analogously to the coupling of an amine of formula IV with an acid of formula V, followed by removal of the ester group Q.sup.22.
To prepare a compound of the formula II in which X' is 4-piperidinyl substituted in the 4-position by a protected amidino group, a compound of the formula ##STR5## can first be reacted, for example, with N,N'-bis-(t-butoxycarbonyl)-S-methylisothiourea, in t-butanol and sodium hydroxide solution to give a compound of the formula ##STR6## and the latter can then be coupled, for example, with any one of the following compounds
H.sub.2 NCH(Q.sup.31)(CH.sub.2).sub.1-3 --CONHCH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 COOCH.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.5 XIa
H.sub.2 NCH.sub.2 CH(Q.sup.4)CONHCH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 COOCH.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.5 XIb ##STR7## in which Q.sup.31 is hydrogen, methyl, phenyl, --COO-lower alkyl or --CONH(CH.sub.2).sub.2 --COO-lower alkyl.
A compound of the formula II in which X' is a phenyl or 4-piperidinyl which is substituted in the 4-position by a protected amidino group, can additionally be prepared by coupling an acid of the formula X'-Y-COOH with an amine of the above formula IV.
The compounds of the formula I, their solvates and their salts inhibit both the binding of fibrinogen, fibronectin and the Willebrand factor to the fibrinogen receptor of blood platelets (glycoprotein IIb/IIIa) and the binding thereof and of other adhesive proteins, such as vitronectine, collagen and laminine, to the corresponding receptors on the surface of different cell types. The said compounds thus influence cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. They prevent in particular the formation of blood platelet thrombi and can be used in the control or prevention of diseases such as thrombosis, cerebral infarct, myocardial infarct, inflammation and arteriosclerosis. These compounds also have an effect on tumour cells in that they inhibit metastasis formation thereof. They can thus also be employed as anti-tumour agents. They can further accelerate the healing of wounds.
The inhibition of fibrinogen formation on the fibrinogen receptor, glycoprotein IIb/IIIa, can be detected as follows:
Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa is obtained from Triton X-100 extracts of human blood platelets and purified by lectin affinity chromatography (Analytical Biochemistry 151, 1985, 169-177) and chromatography on an Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser affinity column (Science 231, 1986, 1559-62). The receptor protein thus obtained is bound to microtiter plates. The specific binding of fibrinogen to the immobilized receptor is determined with the aid of an ELISA system ("enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay"). The IC.sub.50 values below correspond to the concentration of the test substance which is required in order to inhibit the binding of fibrinogen to the immobilised receptor by 50%:

As previously mentioned, the present invention also relates to medicaments containing a compound of the formula I, a solvate thereof or a salt thereof, and to a process for the production of medicaments of this type, which is characterised in that one or more of the said compounds and, if desired, one or more other therapeutically useful substances are brought into a pharmaceutical administration form. The medicaments can be administered enterally, for example orally in the form of tablets, film tablets, coated tablets, hard and soft gelatin capsules, solutions, emulsions or suspensions, or rectally, for example in the form of suppositories, or as a spray. The medicaments can also be administered parenterally, for example in the form of injection solutions or as an infusion.
For administration, these compounds can be mixed with pharmaceutically inert, inorganic or organic excipients. Lactose, corn flour or derivatives thereof, talc, stearic acid or its salts, for example, can be used as excipients of this type for tablets, coated tablets and hard gelatin capsules. Vegetable oils, waxes, fats, semi-solid and liquid polyols, for example, are suitable as excipients for soft gelatin capsules; depending on the nature of the active compound, however, no excipients at all are necessary in the case of soft gelatin capsules. Water, polyols, sucrose, invert sugar and glucose, for example, are suitable as excipients for the production of solutions and syrups, water, alcohols, polyols, glycerol and vegetable oils, for example, are suitable for injection solutions, and natural or hardened oils, waxes, fats and semi-solid or liquid polyols, for example, are suitable for suppositories. The pharmaceutical preparations of the invention can in also contain preservatives, solubilizers, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers, sweeteners, colorants, flavorings, salts for changing the osmotic pressure, buffers, coatings or antioxidants.
For the control or prevention of the diseases mentioned further above, the dosage of the active compound can vary within wide limits and is understood to be adjusted to the specific conditions in each individual case. In general, on oral administration a dose of from about 0.1 to about 20 mg/kg, preferably of about 0.5 to about 4 mg/kg, per day is suitable for adults. A larger dosage may also be appropriate depending on the condition being treated.
